Very resourceful! Most don't have the equipment that is available to you, however. We just flip it with a bunch of drunk friends picking up on one side.

I saw a pic recently in a book of a gun truck in Vietnam being towed by a wrecker. The wrecker was definitely M54-series 5-ton truck based platform, but the wrecker bed was a Holmes-type system, not a hydraulic system like the M543, M62, etc. Was there a M54-based Holmes-type wrecker, and if...

I swear, one day I'm gonna make leather jackets up for the Haspin Acres Mowercycle Gang. Change of plans - the deuce and the M37 will be in attendance. 2007 - no MV with me. 2010 - two MVs. In a few years, I'll have a military museum towed behind a M123 tractor the way things are going.

Those all look British to me. I see a few US bikes in the second picture, but I don't see any German ones in there. Pretty neat pics!

Found some 7.50x20 NDT tires for you. $212 each brand new from Universal Tire. 750-20 Firestone Military NDT - Military - Truck and Military

Anyone with a M38 jeep and a tape measure?

If I convoy with Cabell and Ferro like I did last year, 16 hours one way. A long drive, for sure.

Perhaps go into Washington DC with my daughter and see some sights on Memorial Day. If she doesn't want to go, then I'll just stay at home, cook some burgers on the grill and drink some beer, maybe wrench on the trailers a little more or do some PM work on the deuce, getting her ready for...

The rest of the Land Train....

Very cool! Can we get some close up pictures of the trailer, especially the stave mounts on the sides? Would like to get ideas of what to do with my M416 project, the bed is shot and will be turning it into a quasi-M762.

Found another one in a casual search online - the M35 Squatter Swatter. The more I look, the more gun trucks are out there.....

I will be in Harrisburg, PA on Tuesday picking up a lot of surplus from the Navy depot there. If the holder of the rims there will be around Tuesday late morning, I can pick up and bring to Ferro. PM me with the details, Kenny. Happy to help.

I vote for the MERDC.

I saw that one on the Jeeps for sale forum. Pretty interesting the way it was modified. Almost made me think the guy was trying to use a 5th-wheel-hitch with the ambulance. If you convert, please post pics of the conversion. It would be pretty neat to see, I can't remember anyone else ever...

Is there sure a thing as high-temp OD green paint? Just like you would use on a grill, or an exhaust manifold, but in OD?

Most wiring in the deuce is 14 ga stranded copper. Some of the feed lines are 12 and 10 ga, but I think the ones for the gauges are 14 ga.

Well.... it IS a Jeep, after all! Glad you had a good time...

What is the distance in inches between the outside of the tires on the front axle of the M38? Looking into a small BBQ project on this end, want it to look kinda like a flat fender jeep. Hey, the first part of my screen name is "mad". And not as in angry.

I might be meeting up with a friend at Haspin who is returning from a family trip to Oklahoma City. He is interested in wheeling a little, but also expressed interest in putting his Geo in the rear end of the deuce for the ride back to Virginia. Those hills there will help in loading, not to...

Ferro is going to Haspin, I believe. He's not in GA, but in SC, pretty close.
