Thanks for the comments. Yeah, the tow bar has paid for itself many times over, from towing dueces to cucv's. The day I was swapping the beds, the green truck blew a freeze plug on the way to my buddies house, so we hooked it up to my tan truck to get it there and back. The tan truck came with...

Here's some before and after pics of my dropside box, sandblast, paint and swap. First one is the truck going in to get blasted. Didn't get a chance to get any while the beds were hanging from the excavator. :(

The 6.2's are Detroit Diesels made for GM. For 80's technology, it is a very good engine. After GM's debacle with the Olds "gas converted to diesel" engines, their reputation for diesels had already been tainted, so the 6.2's don't get the credit they deserve.

Looks great with those tires McGuyver! Thats a nice looking ride! Do you still have your truck Scrambler?

Are the HMMV gages mechanical?

I've got some extra duece gages and would like to use them in my cucv. There is room next to the amp gage for one. I'd like to use the temp and oil pressure gage. Would these work in the 1009? If I attach them to senders on the 6.2, will they be accurate?

CCAT, are you driving your truck up on Sunday to pick up the axle? I'd like to see it!

It is on the door of my truck still. This pic is when I first got the truck.

Wow, that is a cheap price for an Oshkosh, by gosh!

Yeah, any of you guys with airstrips get ahold of me, I'll take care of ya... :driver: Rizzo, did you get any pics of the hemtt?

Actually quiet. I did some research and the muffler is under the cylinder cover. The pipe sticking out with the flange is the end of the muffler, and the piece on the end of that is just a spark arrestor. Also, Saturn Surplus sells replacement parts, including complete new engines!

Sweet! Man, that's a far cry from what was dragged home! Nice work! p.s. Compressor fired right up after a couple shots of starting fluid.

Wow LTR, that looks great!. Where did you get the canvas from?

I've got the Rick Larson decals on my gages.

Since the motor was running bad, not enough vacuum I'm guessing.

So what you're saying is that the AC13G's that were the OE plug, have been superceded by the AC60g's? So THE ONLY difference is that they are: A. self-regulating B. non-swelling C. the tab needs to be narrowed to fit the mil. connector? Resistance value, etc., and the stock relay...

Couple more.....

Hey, I remember loading those cucv's, I've got the loading on video. That was a fun day, it was the first time we met you guys. Remember the bees? It took multiple cans of wasp spray before we could get close to the 1009 my brother and I dragged home. My shop van came out of the same lot as...

Yes, pinion seal. Common leak and very easy to remedy.

Welcome Jose, nice looking truck. I like the louvered engine side panels. I've never seen that before.
