Authentic historic plates are $35 for a lifetime, you send in a picture and fill out a form and plate your vehicle with a plate form the year of the truck. Regular historic plates are $35 for 15 years. I have the authentic historic plates, but I don't use my truck as a "truck"...it is a...

I get the FL document as well, I just take all the paperwork down to the SOS and they give me a title, it usually isn't a problem. I also highly doubt having the truck titled as "utility" will hurt you if you are getting the historical plates...

Maxx, they will have another deuce auction in Michigan for sure, there is still a lot of trucks there that say FMS freeze which stands for "foreign military sales". Chances are the sale will fall through and we will get a chance at the trucks. If not you can go to Ohio or Indiana and it...

Matt, I've always been charged for the SF-97 pretty quickly. If you haven't and it was 2 weeks ago I'd get on live chat and find out. Very nice truck! and cool to here about all the "extras"!

Mitchel, the way you put it, It actually seems easier to do it with the SF-97!

The SOS's are few and far between nowadays...there is one in Mt. Morris (that is where I went last time) and there is one in Davison, this is where my parents went to transfer title to their name and there is one near the corner of Fenton and Hill roads (this is where i went with the first one)...

I didn't want to have to pay the extra $60 either, but it is a must. Bob, I still got mine and my dad's titled as a pickup, however they would not put the model as m35a2, they just left that blank. Gunner, do you know the guy with the 5-ton tractor? I talked to him on the phone and he says...

I had to purchase the SF-97 for both mine and my dad's truck. I called the SOS prior to spending that money, and they said you must have government form 97. Order your SF-97 right away because it takes them 30 days or so to get it to you, then go to a SOS office and make them register it as a...

rz14rt, my dad and I built a Nato slave cable because I couldn't find one cheap enough. Get some used 2/0 welding cable or something close that can handle 600 amps and then get 2 ends off ebay (you might also have to buy the adapters if your trucks are the old style 2 prong). I ended up...

If you are talking about deuce batteries my dad and I just got the biggest CCA ones that Wal-Mart sells...I think they are the 65D's and they are $77 each so you will need 4 of them. You will have to put some 2x4's in there to brace them because the battery box is too big. Or you can go get...

Joe has a jumper cable...you shouldn't need to bring anything. Glad to hear the EUC's are going through, and shorter than the normal 60 days! they must need to clear out some room for something else.

I have looked that truck over pretty extensively and I've talked to the owner, it must run because it is in a different spot than the last time I looked. He says he bought a m915 to haul his toy instead. This truck isn't a m818, it is a m52a2 with a multi-fuel engine. I'd like to buy it too...

If it makes you feel any better, my dad is still waiting on his SF-97, so he still can't drive it.

Yes, almost all of the FMS freeze trucks had winches. But, you better not take a chance and go get a truck from PA or KY or something like that [thumbzup]

the five ton multifuel tractor is right on M15 just north of Millington, on the west side of the road. It is nice I posted some pictures on here in another thread. I've heard that GL is currently not cancelling sales at 60 days because BC is taking so long, so I wouldn't worry about anything...

You might want to tow 5657 as it has an exhaust leak

rz14rt, I just heard yesterday that the albright auction truck did not sell for enough, so it did not get sold. If you are tired of waiting, I've seen some private sale trucks for around $2000, not sure if they'd make the long trip though. By the way, there is a sweet 5-ton multi-fuel tractor...

I thought the closing price was $2800? I guess I didn't see the final price, but we looked at it up close and it wasn't in that great of shape. The only thing going for it was apparently that you didn't have to wait and it already had a title.

Travis, tell us what lot you got and either Bob, Bill or myself can probably tell you a lot about it. Like whether it has troop seats or not.

Wow! Well, it looks like a got a work party. Now I just have to round up all the parts, maybe Southwest will have most of them. I got my lug nuts from them for $1 each, much better than the inflated prices on the internet.
