Well my wife and daughter left me and my son unattended this past weekend while they were gone to a dance competition and the Green Iron Disease bit again. So across the state we went to pick up another 1967 M725 to add into the motorpool. I bought this one well under market value as it complete...

Anybody else heading to the MVPA show in South Bend this weekend? I'll be heading down with my M715 for display and will hanging out around the vehicle if you want to stop by and say hello. Of course, I'll be wandering around the swap meet areas as well searching for gold covered in OD green...

This past march, I picked up a very nice clean un-restored, un-molested 1967 M725 from a fellow who bought it surplus over 20 years ago. Really nice older gentelman who finally realized that he would never have the time to do a restoration on it. So I got it for a great price. It had sat for a...

Well I have finally got my new decal website up and running. http://www.deltateamdecals.com/ is the new site and will replace the old one. Plus it allowed me to add a few new items and have a straight click through to PayPal. Look through it and let me know what you guys think. If you are...

Well, I had a good lead on another M37 truck and drove over to meet the seller. WOW, his idea of a clean, solid, good running truck and mine are way different. What a piece of crap it was. Then he was offended when he asked what I thought the value was and I told him nothing over $1000. He was...

Well I did finish up a new M35a2, it just in 1/35th scale! I built another of the AFV Club's 1/35 M35a2 models recently. I had to scratch build a few pieces as I wanted to build a hard-top truck with the gun ring opening. The kit come with a soft top so I had to make the new to from scratch...

Well, we are a week away and I have not really seen a Clare only thread. So I'll be bringing a bunch of decals with me again. If anyone needs anything custom, now is the time to let me know so that I can get them done to bring with me. I will also be parts shopping so if anyone coming has...

I recently finished off a AFV Club M38a1 model build. It went together nicely. I used a can of Averole 24087a to paint it. And marked it like one of the M38a1's that my father drove while with the 226th ASA in the 60's.

Here are a few pics from the local parade here. I brought all 3 trucks out for the parade. As usual we loaded those vets who could no longer make the color march through town into the back of the trucks. All of them are very thankful that I bring the trucks so that they can still participate...

I had all the trucks out the other day and lined them up for a little motorpool inspection and photo op. They are; 53' Dodge M37, 67' Kaiser Jeep M715, and a 67' Kaiser Jeep M35a2. Enjoy!

I'm planning on putting a set of Selectro's on the M37 I just finished but need to figure out which part # they are. My shop is a Milemarker dealer and I can buy them direct, I just want to make sure I get the right ones. From looking in thier book I believe that they are the 11022-01 which...

Well I finished up the major work on the M37 I've been restoring. I just have items like the troop seat to finish up, and the blackout light once Lane digs a bracket out of his piles somewhere. But all the paint and markings are done. As well as the new 9.00x16 ndt tires. The markings were...

Well, I've been busy working away at the 53' M37 I bought. Picking up a few missing items and removed a few add ons the the park service added to my truck. But it has been moving along nicely and today I started to spray it back to OD. I'm starting with the cab interior and inside of the bed...

Well I was able to put in a good solid day of work on the new m37 and was able to get all the wiring sorted out. Luckily the park dept didn't cut up any of the original harness, but rather added addition stuff along side it. To get turn signals they added a complete seperate 12v set up tapped...

Well all went well as I was able to head over to Midland County and pick up my 53' M37 that I had bought from them. I very pleased with the truck, as it is really clean and in good shape. I picked it up right from the parks garages and was able to talk with several of the guys who use to use...
