Raisin' MV's That is a large fleet of MV's. We love our bikes so looking forward to seeing some pictures. A big welcome from Canada. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?59917-How-to-post-pictures-a-tutorial How is the weather where you are? We might need an exodus to a southern...

Sounds like the team I get to MV around with. It's a great group of folks that preserve these historical pieces. Zelda looks amazing!

My 89 year old Mother reminds me that we're all in this HMV canoe together. We only get to the shoreline when we row in the same direction. I can't swim so let's get the guy in the back to steer this thing and the rest of us will just paddle.

There are 5 pages of helpful troubleshooting starting at page 163 and it sounds like you're on the right track. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?106483-More-M135-TM-s I, T, Y or L, also suggest oil passages and control valve bath with a recent post I glanced at suggesting a 'clean...

It's your first post and you already have us tied up for hours :D. Welcome aboard and thanks for the links. Are you being forced into re-building a transmission? The prof is so cool I had to watch. Being that calm in a shop would be a big change to the level of intensity I usually see. He's a...

Swivel seats bring back memories of a friend's Olds 442 in the parking lot of the high school. The engineering has already been done so grabbing a set of Oldsmobile seats might be an option. It's tight in that cab so a guy might need to be creative but the 1010 is a great platform. Nice truck!

Does the general public know about the challenges future HMV owners are experiencing? I see a lot of photos from Cities and Towns that benefit from the parades and displays so maybe the Mayors and event organizers should be aware of restrictive legislation. How else can we help you reach out for...

March 16, 1927 and 1956 birthday Here we go again using birthdays for a reason to party.........let's Dance and Celebrate with a bonus track from Mom's 2nd best son Lester Quitzau. With Mom celebrating on March 12th, Dad on March 16th a sister and nephews mixed in there, it's time to pour the...

Upside down photos I worked all day to try and flip Goose over so I could get bottom pictures for you. I did get it over at a 45° angle but was moving too fast to snap a pic'. It's tough to see any welds on the inside of the top rail so I'm thinking they, whoever they are, used one piece...

We might want to talk about your girlfriend more in private messages because I have questions. We're looking for the team that fed the troops throughout operation morninglight between 77' and 79'. Was she serving then? That was the operation to go up in northern Alberta and search for a downed...

M135 box It looks like the boys....or girls?..... went fast when putting the boxes together. There is a difference between the boxes by as much as 1/2" so back in the day we dropped the square and compass then slapped em' together. Both boxes I measured are 1956, one March and one November...

M135 cargo box We might need to come up with a 'most likely' measurement if we're getting different numbers. We'll be finished digging snow out by Friday. I intend to visit Goose and George so I can check between two 135's. We found different glass sizes between the trucks too so seeing...

Check these out from John Deere M73249. We use them in the Early Deuce. 9376K48 and 9213K22 are also listed on the sassy G749 parts list at the top of this page https://www.steelsoldiers.com/forumdisplay.php?18-The-Early-Deuce https://www.shopgreendealer.com/John-Deere-Isolator-M73249.html

Hey neighbour, welcome to the site. I sent a PM private message with some contact info. The site is tricky sometimes because a guy finds a title that is meaningful but the poster may be long gone. The Iltis is real popular around home and warehouses still hold parts so most of them make it to...

Can you show us how you bypass the air/ hydraulic cylinder? Pictures at eleven? Here is the latest air pack info. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?70703-M220-AirPak-rebuild/page4

Got it, Page 33 has the M35 vs M135 MC - check valve info. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?125811-1952-M135-W-Winch/page33 He also added another link with pictures so here is the info. """"""The only difference is the filler pipe, which we would remove from our original and...

USMC-008 has a thread about the check valve that IS NOT supposed to be in the G749 MC master cylinder so let's hope that's where pascal is messing with you. If he doesn't chime in I'll knock on his door for clarification. We have turned the brake adjusters back in the bush to nurse a truck...

A Horse With no Mane That is a great photograph of some finely groomed ponies in front of the 2 trucks. Beautiful. Looked for a truck without a cab heater and just a circulating heater but no such luck. Didn't see a block heater banged into one of the frost plug holes either so not sure why...

Me thinks they burned a bunch of canvas tops before going with a taller stack. We were extending the bow legs up for taller Canadians so the demand seems to come in later in more quantity. Additionally, the shop vans didn't all have tall stalks either so it's a story that needs to have a story...
