RE: Thank you Woo Hoo the weekend before Aberdeen I can hardly wait just wish the M 52 was ready but the title is still not in. Can't wait to meet all the Great Steel Soldiers. We will be praying for safe traveling and good fellowship for the event.

Jeff: That is exactly the model I found and it looks like it has not run in a while so I will see if I can get it for a song. Thanks for posting the pictures

Awesome Chris this truck will be the most viewed one at Aberdeen, I am so glad you got the 900 series I still grieve over the Army getting rid of them for the FMTV's our loss your gain.

This one is an old USMC one that we had in the Army too they drive right into a container have large floatation tires and a ropps cage. This one is in a junkyard and I hope to get a good deal on it

Nice looking truck I am wondering how they got he mudflaps on as on my truck the tires stick out about two inches farther back than the frame. I took two down today to mount and am trying to figure out how to mount them. My truck was built in 1957 by International in Chicago

I found an old 4K rough terrain forklift that I am considering buying does anyone know what they usually go for in fairly good shape?

Don't laugh bet they are there to take back some of the trucks they sold us.... LOL All in all I think we should bring them donuts make friends and keep the door open to redeeming old iron. What time will the Convoy from the South be coming through the tunnels in Baltimore I want to be on the...

Wheel Cylinder change I had a leaking rear wheel Cylinder and Jeff was very kind to provide one for me so here are the pictures of the changing. I spent about four hours there today and three of them were with the needle gun hitting rust and flaking CARC then painting with rusty metal paint...

I will have to see what kind of milage I get when I get this on the road it starts well and runs nicely and that indicates proper fuel air ratio. I am hoping to keep it just above 45 on the way home and will let you all know what it gets. I changed out the rear brake cylnider last night and...

Chris So good to see you are feeling better hope a trip with that tow rig gives you a nice break from what you and Trish have been going through. You have been in our prayers. Is that hitch welded underneath the pintle hitch? I can't quite tell from the photo.

We worked the flood of 96 in Wheeling West Virginia and the folks there really appreciated the work we did to help them our dueces and HMMWV's got a lot of folks out of harms way and our Soldiers helped to save the Wheeling Civic Arena. One of the highlights of the news coverage was video of my...

I will be headed down to the museum tomorrow with my needle gun and some primer if the rain stays away to get at some of the gangly rust but the truck is so solid being 50 years old the steel is only rusted through in very few places that will be easy to weld in new stock. I may take it out on...

RE: Re: enclosing the genset I think I would extend the mudflap with a hinged and pinned section that would be down while traveling an up while running the generator just to keep road dirt and mud out of it and let air in when running

RE: Got Truck running and a 5 ton 20K winch on the truck I have the bumper will be putting it on for you tomorrow evening. Sorry that it did not get done right away I had to finish up it was late.

RE: Got Truck running and a 5 ton 20K winch on the truck My Duece has a winch and the tractor would feel stiffed if I brought it home without one I really like the look of the tractor with a winch too I'm very grateful to Jeff for selling it to me.

Got Truck running and a 5 ton 20K winch on the truck I purchaced the winch from Tactical Truck and made the switch from his truck to mine with the aid of the forklift and Mark from Virginia Museum of Military Vehicles where the trucks are siting. Contrary to what a recent post on winch removal...

Great Job ! Love the truck the blue bonnets make me miss Texas and may I offer this prayer, LORD God please watch over the firemen who bravely go out to battle with fire that threatens life and property. Be with them and this truck keeping them all safe and in fine running order. Thank you...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Aberdeen, make a list of what to bring I hope there are a few 5 ton Gasser winch parts since I just transplanted the 20K one on mine. I need the PTO, driveshaft, and controls. I will be close enough to run home for anyting someone may want I will have a list of what is...

Thanks Mike: I guess being a military related site we get like Soldiers sometimes and start talking about stuff so far out there the air gets thin. I think we get a lot of Off Topic stuff going since the world is so crazy these days. All of our trucks have or had rifle racks so gun talk comes...

Congrats but that poor truck looks like a kid with his teeth knocked out. Too bad someone doesn't take the truck home and fix it up looks purty clean to me. If any of you guys from Indiana ever see a CJ 3B with a capstan winch on front and diamond plate floors, it was mine as a teenager and I...
