    Both trucks are home! Got the second one towed by a local tow agency for $165. The more I look at the second truck I dont know what I will do with it. Its pretty rough. I will post family pics tonight. Going to take the carb off the parts truck and rebuild it. Matt

    Time is of the essence..I need the Vin location on a m-211

    If I get time tomorrow I will make the trip out and pull the shafts and get it ready for the tow, On a side not I got to drain 28 gallons of ice tea colored fuel from it.....Bleh!! I am betting that once actually flamable fuel hit the carb it will run.

    Time is of the essence..I need the Vin location on a m-211

    Or I might just belly up and pay the $200 to have the other one towed....:(. By the time I buy the steel, make the pivot brackets and buy the pintle ring, then add in the time....and gas.... . I dont think it will be profitable in the long run. Matt

    Yes unfortunatley my brain has blended all the war books I have read into a great quagmire of misguided info. For some reason I put winters in Vietnam not where he belonged. No disrespect. I would be glad to be grouped with Carlos any day. A friend of mine met him one day at a marine base...

    Time is of the essence..I need the Vin location on a m-211

    Ok, so the drives shafts are removed! Now my question is how much does the front end weigh. I am hoping that the tow truck guy can just hook up and hoist it up and drag it aways now. I didnt have a bar to fit the wrench under the cab so the front left tire is still flat. I cant wait to have...

    Time is of the essence..I need the Vin location on a m-211

    I just hate to see the 3rd truck get wasted. If he is looking for scrap I would rather he come get a few field blossoms from my pasture than watch some goon smash that fiberglass top. Matt
