M1075; Yep it sure is! It can be nasty stuff if mishandled! I'm letting Truck Clean in Evansville soda blast the old CARC paint off since they have worked with military vehicles for about 25 years or so. They are all set up to easily handle this job. The estimate is about $400 start to...

Sonny; Usually the wiring system on these trucks has some age and dry rot to them by the time we get our caring hands on them. The insulation is usually the old style cotton weave reinforced rubber. Believe me this stuff was outdated back in the '50's in civilian applications! Anyway, we're...

S.S.; That's one super cool map! Awesome idea (M82) and job (S.S.) all the way!

Yeah LH, and it looks soooo cool too!

S.S.; Try Tom Kassab. He's the owner of Kascar LLC in Greenville, SC. I don't have a phone number or website. However, from the article I found it seems he's still in business. Wish I had more. I'll keep looking........

CT67; Welcome! Wow! Yours has power steering!?!?!?! That's a rarity! The White engine is exactly like the others except the nameplate. Sounds like you've got a real winner there! Can't wait to see the photos!

OK, rub it in D.S.!<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_wink.gif" alt="Wink">

We purchased our deuce in '02 but got it in September of '03. Pain in the #^&*@! waiting for approval, but well worth it. I had the privy of completely checking it out before bidding! She started and ran well, so I knew she was a winner. My wife and I agreed the truck is for our business, so...

Once you have your Military Vehicle<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_cool.gif" alt="Cool">, what is your purpose for it?

DSG; My dad lives in West Buxton, mom in Falmouth, and in-laws in South Portland. We're usually up there once or twice a year. How far is Franklin from South Portland? I'd love to see this thing up close. If you are interested, we could bring our 109...<img src="emoticons/icon_smile.gif"...

SS People; To help extend the life of the heads, guides, rockers and so on add a tablespoon of Marvel Mystery Oil to the crankcase. Dad did it for his 16 trucks. We never had to pull a head. Plus some of his trucks had 1.4 to 1.6 million miles on them before he traded! My two trucks had 1.1...

S.S.; After my wife and I are finished with our Masters in Teaching programs we'll have the summers to gladly join in the fun. I know Nick will get a blast out of it too. We'd love to get in the fun sooner, but we need to finish our schooling first. We've been through WV before. We love the...

DSG; That is one really nice looking M43! I can't believe the other guy didn't take care of it any better than he did! You've got an incredible find! I hope my M109 conversion comes out as nice when I'm done. I'll be doing desert camo (of course). And this is one great site (thanks...

JT; Looks like a turbo, but the photos are at the wrong angle to be conclusive. If it's a turbo send some Slick 50 Turbo and some Rotella T down the line and Your turbo will be very happy! My compressor has a wire mesh filter to keep out junk. I know there are at least three different styles...

Oops almost forgot, Marvel Mystery Oil, add a cup to the motor oil and a tablespoon to the fuel tank before adding your fuel to better mix the two. Also add some Slick 50 Turbo Formula to the oil before cranking to help your turbo get lubed again. And to avoid blowing the motor, remove the...

JT; Check your front axle boots to see if they are torn or missing. They keep the bearing grease from escaping the bearings. Saturn Surplus has them. They also have fuel filters. Since it's doubtful the diesel in the system is any good, change the filters and save you fuel injector...
