    2010 Fall Rausch Creek MV Rally!!!

    Cool, a wrecker on site this year. Getting close, can't wait - all dependent on income for the time being, though. If I am still out of work at the time, I doubt I can swing this rally. We'll see as we get closer.

    What do you guys think of this?

    I'll offer him a bank check made out for $200 more than he's asking, to pay the movers, and send someone right over to get it. The winch is a joke, I've never seen such a monstrosity. I take that back, that deuce from CA with Blazer axles still wins.

    Saved One

    Wow, looks like time hath taken its toll on the rocker panels and the bottoms of the doors. That's a lot of cancer, even for M880 series trucks.... Hope it gets a proper resto and repaint in time. In the meantime, it's a good start!

    Gilbert rally pic thread

    Wasn't me. I heard about that. Glad I was still in the sack so I didn't get blinded by the sight. Wasn't Downhill Bill either - though DHB was set up at the show.

    MadDawg's M37 gun truck project

    Another box showed up today. About 6 feet long and weighed 65 lbs. Gee, I wonder what it is? Turns out that being on the naughty list ain't that bad. I'll have to keep banging Mrs. Claus under the table to get these presents, I tell you what. Actually, it was built by Bismarck Guns, it was...

    Local Pick a Part find

    It is a Dodge M-37, used from 1951 or so, built until 1968, and used until the late 1970s. They are very popular here. BUY IT!

    Say TTFN to the M60!

    There's a couple Steel Soldiers here with tractors and commercial tags. Perhaps they can move for less than $25K? Note on the Vietnam moving wall and the M60 series tanks: While the M60 tank was in service at the time of Vietnam, it never served there. All the heavy tanks in Nam were M48...

    GILBERT 2010 Update

    Yup - that's called Arizona fescue. Do like they do, just plow it up, and spread gravel all over the place. A couple well-placed cacti will balance it all out. Or do what some folks in Florida and So.Cal do, and just pour concrete over your whole yard, make a big slab to park the green iron...

    MadDawg's M37 gun truck project

    Got the rebuilt carb back this morning - the mechanic said the carb was filled with dried varnish from sitting with old gas in it for a long time. Also, the jets and gaskets were ALL shot. Now I know why it ran like crap at Haspin. Will stab that back on shortly, and more pics to come.

    how to identify a M51 A2 dump truck

    Did those M51s come from the factory in 1966 with the fender mounted air cleaner and the exhaust stack? Or did they get revamped sometime in their lifetime? I seem to remember the factory ones from the 60s came with the low exhaust pipe coming out near the rear wheels, and no air cleaner on...

    Would like to borrow at Gilbert....

    Looking for anyone who has anything Vietnam-era, weapons, vehicles, or otherwise, that would like to display at the hooch on the east end of the fairgrounds, to let me know what you have and bring it there anytime Thursday-Saturday. I am especially looking for anyone with an M2 or M122 tripod...
