M35a2 brake work in Los Angeles area
Here is the short version. I'm not comfortable with the way the brake pedal in my deuce feels. It gets, in my opinion, too close to the floor too easily. I'm not comfortable with performing brake work on any of my vehicles let alone one this size. I have...
Does anyone know of any Veteran's day parades in or around Southern California? It's unlikely that my M1009 and M109 would be of much use but my Father's M151 could come in handy to transport a veteran down a parade route.
I hope the image gets a little bigger? Can anyone identify these rims from the picture? They look as to be six lug rims for a deuce, but I haven't seen the rims with the tires dismounted all that often so I'm unsure.
Does anyone have any idea what the 5th Army would have put on their vehicle bumpers. I was with the military police company stationed on Ft. Sam Houston/Camp Bullis, before the Air Force Security Police took over. We used off the shelf cars supplied by GSA. I'd like to put something that...
I posted up some pictures of MV's being used as decorations at the local pick your part. I also found some form of tracked vehicle. It's hull appears to be aluminum. The dash board has and three lever headlight switch, well what's left of one. In the rear are tubes for holding shells of some...
For anyone in the Southern California area this may be old news. At the local pick your part they are using several MV's as decorations around their perimeter.
I was the high bidder on a 6.2 in a storage can. I was unable to preview the engine so I only had the pictures to go by. In my eye it looks like a complete motor that was rebuilt and put in the box.
I would appreciate input on the chances of this engine actually being rebuilt vs. being "rattle...
While driving around town today I spotted a deuce parked at a local tire shop. At first I chuckled at the sight of polished aluminum wheels on a camouflage deuce. Since NAPA was right next door I stopped in for a fuel filter and a little look see. I was surprised at what was behind those shiny...
I thought I would post some pictures of some military trailers that I found in a storage lot used by the LA County Fire Department. The lot is located on Soledad Rd. across the road from a fire camp. I counted 3 M-105's, 1 M-101's and 2 M-416 trailers. The lot also had an assortment of fire...
While wandering around at work I heared a train approaching. Turns out it was three UP SD-70ACes pulling a long line of armored vehicles. From where I was they looked very much like Bradley Fighting vehicles. I only had my cellphone camera to shoot the pics so sorry if they aren't the best. Can...
Found this in the local Pick a Part. I'm not sure what model/version it is, but It must have been military at one time. Most of it is there. The seat frame and springs in the bed. The funny thing about it is it's location in the yard. It is presently in the "El Primo" area. "El Primo" is for...
