Great looking work! That floor looked like Swiss cheese before... Another CUCV saved from the ravages of time!

Is there a trick to taking down the tire/rim on the M37? I am used to seeing a small notch in my deuce rims that allow me to insert a prybar and lever the locking ring off. I have a couple M37 rims here and there are no notches in the lock ring. ???

Nah, I checked. I don't see any weird stress, bulging or thinning any place on the hook. It's just a different hook design. But thanks for trying to make me look bad! :-D

Just my two cents, but they are higher than the so-called "folding" steps. And if I did bend them, I'm out $5 for a tailgate step, and not $95 for a new folding one.

Great to see everyone again! Nothing like the first show of the year to satisfy my addiction to the smell of Cosmoline and musty canvas!

I prefer the rear steps on the tailgate, unbolt them and attach them to the front of your truck instead. I got mine from TNJ Murray for $5 each, I just had to go there and take them off a junker truck myself.

A couple more pics - first one are the long medium and the short heavy towbar I got there. The long medium is the same thickness as the medium, but the legs do not extend. It's about 8-9 feet long, heavy towbar ends. The short heavy was meant for the M125 cargo truck, used to tow the 8-inch...

OldChev - yes he had some 5KW diesels, but mostly 5KW gassers. You'll have to check their website for more info: http://www.colemans.com Jeepman - I don't know, they sell them fairly reasonably on eBay all the time, without title (can't sell it with a title in PA unless you are a licensed...

I hope you're not referring to the M93 Fox. You'll be waiting a LONG time for an answer, I don't think they are legal to own, or none have ever been released. Kinda like asking if anyone owns a M109 Paladin - perhaps 1 person does, but does he/she log in here?

Trailer's all hooked up and loaded with a towbar and two deuce exhaust pipes for LanceRobson, heading out at 0500 with ShieldWolf37. His first MV show in almost 3 years! :-D Look forward to seeing everyone again!

One last couple pics - anyone know what these things are? I found a pile of 20 or so of them, but I didn't get them, since I didn't know what they were.

Some more pics. Hey, my camera was working yesterday, so why not?

Some more pics for you, if you see anything you guys want, let me know so I can pick it up next time.

Man, there's nothing like 11 hours of sleep to refresh someone after a long trip and loading stuff up form the junkyard! The scrapping continues at Coleman's, but get this - more stuff is arriving daily! Apparently Coleman's has a couple scrap disposal contracts with local military bases...

Why would a gasser wrecker, like an old M62 or M543, not be worth $2500? Are the engines THAT bad?

I'm baaa-aaaack! And I picked up a PILE of stuff. Will post pics in a couple hours, I need to get a couple hours of sleep since I've been up since 0100. But I'll give you all a word for the day: TOWBARS

Same here - I may have to preview some upcoming items there, will let you know for sure by Monday.

I agree - I believe they are called "yarders". They should have a tower with a bunch of winch cables running off of it in order to tow the felled trees up the mountain to the loading area. The one I saw on the history channel was based on a M4 Sherman chassis. It's a shame, but a bunch of...

You'll be saving a lot of pennies. Last time I heard a quote for how much those cost, they were about $5,000 PER WHEEL. There always seems to be a recurring thread about what they would be like on a deuce. Some say that "it would make my deuce go anywhere." The deuce goes anywhere now, I...

Will second that - I have ordered from Stengel Bros. before and they are a top-notch company to deal with. FAST shipping on orders for hard to find parts. I routinely ordered things from them on Monday afternoon and it was in my hands by Wednesday. You won't got wrong with them.
