I was looking over at Olive Drab at some of the trucks used in early WWII and noticed the International K-8 cargo truck. Does anyone have any more info on military IHC K-series trucks (the description says the K-8 was "one of many...International...trucks.")? I have a '49 KBS-6 (2 and a half...

Can someone direct me to info on these beasts? I've only seen one M123 for sale (in my limited time here) - are they pretty rare? Value? Oshkosh has some of the newer heavy trucks (8, 14, 20 and 22.5 ton tractors), but none of the older ones, which look way better than the new. I'd love to learn...

Hey, I'm looking to upgrade my licence from a Class B CDL to a Class A and looking for help. I got my B through the local school district training me to be a bus driver, and now would like to get the A. I know I need to pass the written tests first, get my permit, then start training. This is...

Non-MV related, but is there anyone who would be able to give me a quote on transporting a 1949 International KBS-6 (1.5 ton) truck from West Fargo, ND to Bemidji, MN? Truck has a curb weight of ~ 8-10,000 lbs, is 24 ft. long, has a wheelbase of 15 ft., is 7 ft tall and 8 ft wide. It has a large...

I'd really like to get a M37, but when I sat in one for the first time earlier this week, I had a terrible time operating the clutch pedal. I should note that I'm 6'7"... I could get my toe on the pedal, but sliding my foot up to press it was quite a chore because my knee was hitting the...

I got to sit behind the wheel of a Mutt today, and hey - I fit! I'm 6'7" and have been looking for a MV that will fit in my garage and that I'll fit in. While I'd love a Deuce or 5-ton, those will have to wait for a while, so I was thrilled to find the M151. So, advice?!?! I'd love something...

I just found this show and was thinking of running over. Anyone here go last year? Plan on going this year? Military Vehicle Show 2012 - Richard I. Bong Veterans Historical Center

There's a G506 dumper about 4 hours from me that I'd be interested in picking up if I could get some answers. I haven't been able to look at it in person yet, but have been told that some of the metal is rough with some rust and dents. It is missing the hood and side shields. It doesn't run...

Wondering if someone was close to LaCrosse, WI that could look at a truck for me. I'm ~ 6 hours NW of that location. Please PM if available - Thanks!

Anyone going to the NDMVCA show at the Fargo Air Museum July 21-22? That's only 2 hours form me, so I'd like to go and check things out and meet some locals that are into this hobby... North Dakota Military Vehicle Collectors Association

Hi. My wife works at the local VA Clinic as a LPN, and she chats with one of the guys there who's a gear-head and former Marine. Anyway, she suggested that I "get a hobby," and hang out with Billy to get myself a truck to fix up. Billy and I started chatting and I've always wanted a military...
