Okay, here's the pics I took of folk's military vehicles at the show. If I forgot someone, I'm sorry. JWC, I didn't get a pic of yours, because I showed after you left with you 5-ton on Friday. My apologies....

Okay, thought I'd start this up, to get everyone's pics in one thread. I got back at approx. 10:30 Sunday morning. Sorry I couldn't stay longer but had some family business to attend to on this end. Trip took 9 hours each way, no problems. I was glad I was able to meet some good folks up...

WOW! Whatta resto job! Do you plan on spooling some new cable on there as well? The old cable looks usable, but may have been abused over the years....

This ones easy: 28th Infantry Division (Mechanized), Pennsylvania Army National Guard 1st Battalion, 112th Infantry (the last "1" on the left bumperette is really an "I") Headquarters, truck #94. HQ for the 1st Bat, 112th Inf is Erie, PA, so thats probably where this rig spent most of its time.

Okay, its 0545 at the MadDawg pen. My truck is loaded with the M105 racks and my camping gear, and I'm Westbound and down, loaded up and truckin. Be there around 1600-1700 Friday afternoon. :grd:

Looks great! Wouldn't mind ridin in that myself!

Looks like he has a future in the nose gold mining industry. Either that or Congress. :)

This is what happens when you give MVs to worthless inbred hicks with a Millermatic and half a good thought in their mind. They could've used a beat-up M416 with a faded rattle can paint job that noone really cared about, and used that as a basis for their offroad trailer, but NO, had to cut up...

Where in GA? Northern GA might be do-able for me coming from No. VA, near Florida would be a tad too far...

TNJ Murray in Delaware has rebuilt distributors for $150. I have a junkers that needs to be rebuild, I'll probably send off his way as well.

RE: Carlisle All-Truck Nationals, Carlisle PA August 3-5, 20 Anyone?

Just curious, but why are you scrapping the trailers instead of restoring them? Most of us do the latter. Seems to me a chemical shelter may be a neat thing to have, weren't those the inflatable ones that can double as big tents?

Roger that, gimpyrobb and oilcan. Will get there on Friday afternoon as soon as I can. Also, if anyone has a few extra parts, I need the following: 24v bulbs for taillights, dash, and turn signals (a couple of each) number plates for bridge plate (I need about 3 or 4)

Oops, duh. Shows how observant I am when I have a half case of beer in me....

Painting vinyl is like painting a garbage bag. As soon as the paint dries, and you move the plastic, the paint will start peeling. Only exception to the rule are the several plastic/rubber paints that aren't really paints, they bond with the plastics and actually dye the color a different...

For a rattle can paint job, you're looking pretty darn good! Way to keep up the good work Bjorn!

With all the drivetrain and tracks missing, that thing can't be worth more than a couple grand. The SUSV is a great little snow cat, but it's gona take a lotta work to get this back in the powder again.

For a ring mount and the .50 cal cradle, talk to Austin Weber in TX. He's on eBay (sells under the name beltfed34 ). He's got lots of gun mounts and he's a great guy, saves a lot of green iron from the scrap piles at the GL auctions.

There's a 20mm gun mount at the below website for $3,500. Needs resto as well, but where else you gonna find one? I'm not sure the early M114s and T114s had the 20mm gun mount, most of the early ones had .50 cals only. But what the heck. http://www.armyjeeps.net

Wow, I like that T114. Looks like it needs a resto, but not a junker, by far. Plan on putting a gun mount back on it? Post some pics of the inside. Where did you find this one for sale?
