I love those 5-ton shop trucks. A mobile shop on wheels, perfect for us MVers, especially going to MV shows and the like. If there's any problems with an MV at Aberdeen, you have the truck and the shop to fix it right there!

Those look like custom rims on there Beadlocks? Anyways, great looking revival, thanks for posting the pics!

Welcome to the site, Ron. Nice solid rig you have there, no cancer which is good. Do you plan on bringing her back to the OD Green fold, or keeping it yellow for now? As far as manuals, we have a bunch in the manuals section of the site, check there first. As far as parts, there are...

How do you open the hood on a setup like that? Looks space age Buck Rogers like, but not very practical IMHO.

The GG is a love/hate thing, you either do or you don't. They are interesting, they certainly sound cool, and still have that modern tactical look that will have people asking what unit you are in. Remember, we are dealing with MVs here, they ALL have their quirks and problems, their pluses...

Regular unleaded is $2.91 in Front Royal, VA as of this morning. Super is around $3.15 or so.

RE: fuel can bracket All the M101 series trailers and their variants use M37 5-lug wheels. They made adapters to utilize 6-lug M715 rims after the military changed from the 3/4-ton truck to the 5/4-ton truck in the late 1960s/early 1970s. If your trailer has 6-lug rims, the axles have...

RE: XM977 All...my...squad's...got a low-rider!

That's the most rust-free M880 series truck I've ever seen. Most are cancer treatment centers by now...

I'm interested as well. I might have two MVs by then

Yes, but at the time the Hummer H-1 was still being made by AM General. Change the grille ever so slightly (copyrighted), don't put any stampings of "Hummer" or "AM General" anywhere on the body, call it something else like the "Ridge Runner" or "Sawback" to change the association, and you're...

beltfed34 (Austin Weber) has one listed on eBay for $75 in rusty but usable condition. The cross pin is broken as well. Search under his eBay ID, then the phrase "UPA"

Re: RE: A Concise History of Gumby - by MadDawg308 III, Esq. One and the same Jeff, though there were over a dozen -715 trucks in the yard at the time, so I'm not sure if this is the one you tried to buy or not.

Thought I might give a little historical background on Gumby, my M725, since I've been posting a lot of updates. Just for ya'lls entertainment. This is what I was able to gather from former owners and workers at the NZP facility. Gumby and about 20 other M715 series trucks were surplused...

IMHO - if you want a HMMWV, it will just take more work to build one up from parts. It took an enterprising individual, but now you can build a NEW Willys MB out of repro parts. It took and enterprising individual, but now you can build a NEW M151 jeep from new unibodies and surplus parts...

The rally auction sucked not because of what was donated, but because the auctioneer wasn't selling the merchandise. All he was concerned about was the price he wanted for it. Regardless of whether you're a retail store, or an auctioneer, you have to focus on describing the merchandise...

Looks fantastic! I like your shop too, wish I was lucky enough to have a shop like that!

My question is, did the GL people take parts off the rigs after they sold? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHA!!!!

RE: A few more... Ooh, train stuff. Don't show those pics to FerroEquinologist, he'll have the make a road trip!
