    Assorted HMMWV pics

    Nice pictures. It looks like it was raining before you took the photos. Does CARC paint react to water the same way this paint does, or is it more uniform looking?

    Afghans to get HMMWVs

    I think you'll find this interesting: When Kabul had rock 'n' roll and pencil skirts.

    Afghans to get HMMWVs

    Stay classy, Georgia. :roll: They actually build homes from mud-like clay. It's far better than thin and cheap sheet rock.

    CJ 10 Dimensions and Specs?

    If I'm not mistaken, the Scrambler was the CJ8 (slightly longer than the CJ7). The CJ10 was available as a pickup for the civilian market - albeit mostly for export - and was used as a tow vehicle for the military market. It's the one with the unappealing front grill, and square headlights on...

    CJ 10 Dimensions and Specs?

    I can't seem to find any information on this anywhere online. Does anyone know the dimensions of the CJ10 or 10-A? I'm mostly interested in: Track width? Wheelbase? Overall Width? Overall Length?

    Unimog Chassis and Axles

    The more I learn about the Unimog the more I like it. I'm taking all this information in. My only question at this point is, where can I test drive a Unimog? Do I test drive a new one just to get a feel for it, or is the difference between a 1970s $4000 Unimog and a brand new 2010 model like...

    Unimog Chassis and Axles

    I am considering purchasing a Unimog rolling chassis which will form the basis for a Kaiser M715 Jeep. Before I start researching my buying options, these questions come to mind: 1. Is there a limited number of tire sizes that fit the Unimog's axles? Most of the Unimog photos I've seen...

    Nukizer 715

    I was at the New York Auto Show yesterday, but the Nukizer wasn't on display there. You might want to call in ahead and check before you go to the one in Denver. If it is in fact on display there, it would be nice if you could share some photos. Have fun. P.S. There were no Hummers at the...

    $50 HMMWV in a crate?

    I have four copies of The Wealth of Nations and I have no idea how I ended up with so many. Anyway, where does one draw the line between selfishness that which does more harm to others and self-interest that is a survival instinct?

    $50 HMMWV in a crate?

    It's not a matter of worth, it's a matter of courtesy. It's like eBay auctions, the bid on an eBay auction could be increasing by $1 per bidder, then the resident jerk comes along 2 days before the auction ends and decides to bump the bid up to $140 on an item that just an hour earlier closed...

    Nukizer 715

    What's the advantage of a separate cab and bed over a one piece pickup?

    $50 HMMWV in a crate?

    A similar HMMWV body was sold back in September 2009 for about $3500. This time around, when the bidding was around $700 someone came along and bid $5200 on all four bodies. They will probably end up on eBay for close to $15,000. Why is it that people have to hog such deals? Leave some for...

    HMMWV parts ID

    I can't help with the ID per se, but here are two useful sources: The first one is the M998 series technical manual. The second link is a series A2 technical manual (M1113 - M1167). Both are up to date. https://www.logsa.army.mil/etmpdf/files/070000/074000/074667.pdf...

    Question about boneyards overseas?

    I hate getting into political debates as they usually lead nowhere, but isn't it ironic how misguided resentment works? If some foreign army invaded Florida, killed your family in the process while claiming they're in there to liberate you, would be thrilled? Just today Obama killed a family...

    Cucv ii

    Those are exactly the wheel I'm looking for. Is there any way to get an NSN on these wheels? Did they come standard on the CUCV? Does anyone have a manual number for the CUCV? That would be the easiest way to get the NSN, I think.

    Wheel ID?

    Can you help ID this wheel? The name of the manufacturer?

    Possible to get a military hummer for 10 grand?

    I think it boils down to what you're going to be using it for. If it's a military piece of hardware you're after, then a genuine hmmwv is the ticket. If you're looking for a capable vehicle to go four wheeling and/or camping, then a salvage/burnt Hummer H1 can be found for a low price and...
