    Does any one have knowledge or photographs of civilian based 80’s three wheelers?

    On that note, you could bring one back to life. As I remember, they were cut, not crushed to meet the demil. I have seen new life perservers turned in, and the guys at DRMO cutting them up with razor knifes, then putting them into the dumsters. When I asked why? better to just go ahead and...

    Does any one have knowledge or photographs of civilian based 80’s three wheelers?

    Hate to say this.....but I remember them. In the late 1980s or the early 1990s, I remember them being surplused by DRMO out of Fort Bragg, NC. That is the good news, the bad news is they were demilled by being cut up. DRMO back them had a flyer you could pick up at DRMO that showed what was...

    Another one bites the dust

    My father in law paid waaaay over $10,000 for his mule from Mechanical Mules of America. It looked new......but the tires had little to no tread, and it broke down shortly after he got it. It is still down at this time. I would not buy one from them. One of the few, Frank USMC RET

    M37 gun trucks in Vietnam

    Some one years ago wrote a very good story for Army Motors (MVPA) about the armor kit that was made for the M37. The story broke the kit down, and showed how it was mounted on the M37. I do remember the kit did come with alot of shims for fitting the armor. That is the good news, the bad news...

    David It was parked in the lot with several trucks and tracked vehicles waiting it's turn to go out into the range. There was a beautiful rebuilt 5 ton cargo also in the lot.
