    Looking for some history

    I'm kinda perplexed why you think the truck was used by the air force? The serial number and registration number match up to the vehicle decribed above. Emmado22 is 100% correct that the Department of Defense Activity Address Code (DODAAC) for the DODAAC you provided W908CL is for the 316 AG...

    Looking for some history

    Got some further info for you. Before it went to the 316th AG your truck belonged to the 449th MAINTENANCE CO. I'm fairly sure this unit use to be located on Fort Tilden, NY (southeastern NYC somewhat near JFK Airport). Appears the unit deployed/was deployed prior to Sep 2004 but the truck...

    Oil Burner Conversion for M1941 Heater

    If they are the same type of heaters I had in Germany in the 80/90's, we used 60% df2 and 40% mogas. Within the past few years they began issuing new guts for these that are for burning just DF2/JP8. I also recall them smoking alot with straight df2 but that subsided after they got broken in...

    Sdkfz 251 with a 120mm mortar...

    I have studied German armor and other weapons for over 20 years. I am not saying they didn't but I have never found photographic evidence nor read any official reports stating the 120 was mounted in a 251. I know a lot of early works on German armor had a lot of mistakes and or transposed...

    M151A2 VIN INFO

    We need to have the VIN and registration (if possible). It honestly depends on several factors but we'll never know until we try.

    Frame Numbers

    Sermis, Let's try the easy way first. Send the serial number on the dataplate (and registration number if you can find it) and we can go from there.

    Frame Numbers

    I'm assuming you mean id'ing the unit it belonged to. Would need the national stock number, serial number or registration number (preferably both) and type of vehicle (ie M35A2C w/w). The older the vehicle, the less likely the information is available.

    Frame Numbers

    You'd end up putting bumper numbers on your truck for the 8 UP CSPSS Unit (Ate Up Combat Sani-Pot Service Support) LOL. Have fun with the truck!!!

    Frame Numbers

    Your truck was used by the 1173 Transportation Company (Light Truck) VA Army National Guard located in Manassass, VA. Sometime around 1996/7 it was removed from the unit with 47160 miles on it. It may have been sent to DRMO at that time. Hope that helps

    Here's a loaded question--baby seats

    Guess I'm feeling a little over protective. My folks always let me ride in the back of the pickup, standing up, falling out, cracking my head. Maybe that is why I'm so dain bramaged.

    Here's a loaded question--baby seats

    Thanks all of the insight. I got some time to look at the various options. The infant car seat will go in the rear seat middle. I still have two other kids under 60 lbs so I got two kid seats to put in there on each side. Guess I will have to use the straps integral to the kid seats...
