New mule project!

I am embarking on a new mule project. The latest adventure will be a companion to the 106mm RR mule. I am in the process of gathering up TOW parts and pieces to be mounted on another project mule. Anyone with appropriate parts please contact me.
Thanks,
Nick

Here is a preview if all goes well!

Nick just a P.S. there two style or barrel lengths for the TOW,it appears as though the one in your pix is the longer of the two.

Good god, now thats some oomph, not that the 106 would be lacking. Hard to believe such a little thing is a safe base for such firepower.

Guess you finally found a use for that TOW mount that TNJ had laying around, huh?

Mike, unfortunatly that is not the correct mount. I have located the correct mule mount and I am working on the details!

Both of those mules are "4 bangers". Is that not a muffler on the starboard side, at rear, just in front of the marine's left knee?

Picture #2 was portrayed as a "A5" in Denise Moss', article in MV magazine and also in David Doyle's MV ID book.

Both of those mules are either M274 or M274A1, Carrier,Light Weapons, Infantry. Both have two mufflers, only the 4 cyclinder engines had two mufflers. The 2 cyclinder engines (A3,A4, and A5) had one muffler on the port side, under the air cleaner assy.

When the Army used the mule as a TOW platform, they used the M274A3, A4, and A5, all with the upgrade kit (wide wheels, electric start, fenders,etc.). But not all mules with the upgrade kit had the TOW mount.
