    My Deuce

    WOW! That's, like, between $7 and $8 a GALLON for diesel! And we think we have it bad over here! What percentage of that figure is taxes, Mark? Someone should be hung over there for that price!

    Towbars in Missouri

    RE: lot part of it anyway.. Those first couple things, the yellow drawbars, may be the armor drawbars for the M1061 series 5-ton trailers. There was a guy on Steel Soldiers looking for this, needs it badly.

    Anyone have a pic of the auction listing? Or a link?

    My Deuce

    Answer to #4 - I don't think there has to be too much in the way of hassle by the authorities. MVs are everywhere in England, the Ministry of Defense sells armor directly to civilians, without even demilling the cannon barrel, for really fair prices. A lot of people over there own armor, and...

    Diesel in m37?

    FYI - here's a website of a military vehicle specialist that does some repowering of MVs, including the M37. Lots of pics, and also has details of a few rebuilds that include M37 with diesel engine upgrades. http://www.mseriesrebuild.com

    Radio setup ?

    I believe the unknown cable would be same as if you didn't use a suppressor, CX-4720/VRC. Also, I don't see any mention of a loudspeaker, but the designation would be LS-454/U for that part.

    Painting the Red Cross on military ambulances

    Okay, just planning for the future, my MV is nowhere near ready to paint. But I am curious, and want to get squared away for later. I understand that newer MV ambulances such as the M886 and the M1008-series ambulance have Red Cross decals that are about 3x3 feet in size. However, the older...

    Fall show in North Carolina

    I'd be interested. Hickory is 280 miles from me, about 6 hours by MV, but I've been to shows that were further.

    Here's a guy has tons of military tank parts. Perhaps he may have something you can use. http://www.militaryvehiclesupply.net/

    Some photos of my truck playing in the dirt.

    Good pics! You should take action pics of trucks for GM for their commercials...

    We need more Steel Soldiers rallies in 2007!

    Another thing we should make sure of that there is something to do wherever the event is held, like offroading, or a trail ride, mud pit, cruise through town, etc.

    tankers?

    What is used as a tanker in the new MV series? I don't remember seeing a designated tanker, fuel or water, in the FMTV series.

    My Deuce

    Man, your people ever heard of front yards? Some of those houses come right up to the road's edge. If someone broke down, wow, there'd be no shoulder to pull over on to change a tire, or whatnot. I guess most of the UK drivers are used to it , though...

    Explain to me why HMMWVs are not surplus'd out to JQ Public

    All this side impact junk is garbage. No wonder the American car makers are going out of business and posting record losses in sales. We can't afford the cars due to all the stupid crap that the auto makers have to be in compliance with just to satisfy the bureaucrats in DC, so the prices of...

    We got a tally of what vehicles we are all bringing to Aberdeen?

    Explain to me why HMMWVs are not surplus'd out to JQ Public

    If the true reason is the H1 sales issue, I wonder if we will somehow be able to change the AMG's/government's position on this now that the H1 isn't made anymore for civilian sales. After all, some industrious people are building HMMWVs out of spare parts anyways, we're just saving everyone a...

    Picture from Colemans trip - MV stuff needs to get rescued!

    Hope not myself, but I have a feeling that the business is safe, he just needs to clean up a bit. Hence the reason why a lot of stuff is being cut up, and good stuff is being put into trailers and in the barns.

    Not happy with the new purchase so far.

    RE: Re: RE: Not happy with the new purchase so far. Just as a quazi side note, is there anyone else out there in terms of a company that redoes CUCVs/M880s that look this good, but have no mechanical problems?
