My M530C (M35 with a firefighting body) has a LDT 465/1D motor in it. Ok, in the cross reference site, there are two lower radiator hoses listed with different NAPA numbers,7759 and 20611, what hose goes to my truck? Thanks. One of the few, Frank

Make sure you talk to the "real" owners and not neighbors that want the trucks gone. I did that once on a WWII truck, drove back to the site with my car trailer to load the truck up and a guy walked up and asked what I was doing I told him I was waiting for the owner of the truck so I could pay...

RE: Re: New Project - 1953 M38A1 That is a nice looking and very complete M38A1. I just sold my Marine one.....miss it already. I have some unopen carburator rebuild kits for the M38A1 at $20.00 plus shipping. I also have a military jerry can holder if you need one for $15.00 One of the few, Frank

Need help. Just put a fuel injector pump on a LDT 465-1D motor. Every time we start it up the motor runs a full power. NOT FUN!! Sounds like the truck is trying to kill itself. Were do I go to find out what the heck is making this truck run full blast. Thanks for any help. One of the few, Frank

RE: more Looks to have the marine lifting brackets in the rear. Is it a Marine Corps truck? Looks good, you did well. One of the few, Frank

Get the manuals. I had a very nice M38A1, that was sloooooow, and hard to start. I took it to my friend (retired Marine 30 plus years, joined June 1941), he told me the problem right away and he was right. My timing was out 180 decrees! He fixed it that day, after that she ran great and started...

Rocco I have a door that has both hinges still on it. I put some oil on the screws tonight to let it soak. Ok, I take out the 4 screws, that are holding the hinge to the door. Does the hinge come out at that point? Or do I need to hit it a few times with a brass hammer? One of the few, Frank

No luck. One door had it's hinge torched off and the other was just the hinge part that is bolted to the door. You needed both hinge parts right? the one that is on the door and the one that is bolted to the cab? Now, do not do yourself in....yet. I still have to more doors down at our farm to...

Man, I am going to go "right" now out to the barn, I have two doors that might have the hinge on them. Sorry, I did not do that on your first post, but I saw were a couple of guys responded and thought you were hooked up. One of the few, Frank

RE: M107 We have that same trailer at work (MCAS Cherry Point, NC), also with a small engine to power a pump. We use ours for fuel for the trucks. Next time I look at it, I will try to remember to look at the data plate to see if it started life as a water buffalo. One of the few, Frank

I was offered one years ago for free, but it was just to far gone.... One of the few, Frank

RE: M43 Pics I have never seen a M37 cargo truck marked with the red cross, even when it was with a medical unit. I have seen several photos during WWII of Dodge WC 51s, WC52s, (4x4 cargo trucks) and the WC63s (Dodge 6x6), plus the GMC 6x6 marked with red crosses. They were used to carry...

I second that. Terry and George are the best. Been dealing with them for over 25 years. One of the few, Frank

This is were I am now. I will be getting back to every one with a shipping costs. Just to give you an idia, the set wieghts in at 50 pounds. The flat rate at the post office for me is a no go, just do not trust it and I can only get one clamp in a box, so you would be paying douple. I think you...

I will try to answer some quistons. 2 deuce, I will try to call my post office today and ask about the $8.40 shipping. Rumblecat, they look like they hook right on the the tow bar. Gimbyrobb, the chain looks like two chains joined together in the middle. I would like money orders. **also** if...

RE: 1/2 T carryall First, there will be no fording gear, water proof wiring on the WC10, this was before the M-Series water proof trucks were made. The photo above is a great example of how the truck should look. It should be 4 whell drive. The biggest thing to look out for is the back doors...

Not wanting to out do Armyman on the generator(GREAT FIND!!!). Today got 8 sets (16) tow bar body clamps. This is the towbar clamp (adapter) that has the chain that goes around the axle for the towbar. They are made by Rock Island, and are still in the packages!Never touched sence the day they...

The Marines had a deadman for there winch trucks. My friend down the road has some, or part of it. It is a spike, about 4 feet long, there is also a plate? part that attaches to the spike. He told me they were issued with the trucks that had winches. When they got rid of them, he took the spike...

What were you trading? You might get a better truck from one of us! One of the few, Frank PS, we have a guy in this area, who makes it a "game" of changing his mind after you drive up.
