Congrats and thanks for the vote in May.

Well we're down to the last few hours of voting so just wanted to refresh the memories of those who haven't voted or didn't read the thread from the beginning. This is what the Goat looked like as of Feb 5 of this year and what it wound up looking like mid-April of this year. That all came...

You don't have to be a fan of the Goat to vote for it. We take all kinds. Kind of disappointed to see someone who actually wrote a book about the M561 (which I purchased) didn't vote for it.

I'd also like to thank those voting for the Goat but also all those that have helped me with it from the recovery in January to scrapping, sanding, finding parts, painting, driving halfway across the country for tires and everything in between. Most of those folks are part of this community so a...

Only a couple of days left to get your votes in. While I'd love everyone who hasn't voted yet to vote for the Goat I'd also like to see some votes for Piper Cub and Wheelspinner. Those guys have great trucks and deserve some recognition too. If I hadn't already voted I'd spend it on one of them.

If the Goat doesn't get a few more votes then we'll be even in the end. Second might as well be 25th.

Ok the Goats only ahead by 2. All of you folks that voted for him need to go out and find 1 more person to do the same. Your side's winning but only by a hair and it's 4th and goal in the 4th quarter. Let's move it into the end zone! (apologies for those who are not football fans).

Just about 5 days left to vote for the Gama Goat (everyone else the voting ends on Thursday :))

That's why you don't go at it head on. I could always use a HMMWV as a step :)

You would be wrong about that. Unlike the HMMWV the Goat's drive line is fully enclosed in the tractor portion and recessed above the body in the carrier section. It could drive OVER a Jersey barrier not just put it's wheels on it.

So what you're saying is jeeps are really good for climbing up the backside of some old dude?

Thought that was just a suggestion for people to vote on. Are you going to try and claim a HMMWV can climb better than a Goat? That's funny :)

I don't need bribes. Here's a video of the Goat for free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekU3B03CEkk&feature=youtu.be

No that was the same jeep that was replaced by the M151 (which was replaced by the HMMWV, which got turned over to ISIS).

Closing in on almost 12,000 views for the thread http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?135414-Working-On-The-M561-Gama-Goat since Feb and only 8 votes? Come on folks you must be interested in it if you keep reading the thread. Throw some support our way. It's not like I'm asking for...

Let the lying, er I mean campaigning, begin. Here's a link to show where the Goat started earlier this year and where it's at now. The attached photos show the progress just between Feb 5 and Apr 15. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?135414-Working-On-The-M561-Gama-Goat
