You are going to love the M62. It is my favorite toy

Always a good day when the title comes in the mail. Congrats on getting the M62 legal!

 

[gimpyrobb]

No mail order here! I walked in to the title agency, handed them my paperwork, they typed some stuff in the computer, and printed out my title! I have loved it. I've owned it since April, and have been fixing/playing with it since. Starter rebuild, powersteering pump replaced, MANY gallons of hydro fluid and a new hose for the boom has made it really usefull. Now I can drive it to other places to use it.

RE: Congratulations

Yeah, thats the way I went. It sucks that Ohio has changed their interpretation of the laws. Anything rated over 2000lbs payload is considered commercial, so now I have commercial historical plates.

RE: Congratulations

gimp, way to keep the faith, how much for commercial historical plates.

 

[gimpyrobb]

RE: Congratulations

$30 basicly, 50yrs

 

[m35a2cowner]

comercial historical ????

Things have changed a bit since I registered mine. Anything one should be aware of, scales, DOT regs? Thanks

 

[gimpyrobb]

RE: comercial historical ????

Dunno yet. When I got the m109 registered, it was the same deal. I have not been pulled over by anyone who didn't want to oogle the truck. Smooth sailing so far. I have not pulled into any weigh stations, and had anyone chase me. With the wrecker weighing so much, I might try to get the basic cdl. Thats it.

 

[gimpyrobb]

Much work needed, but here she is.

Thats the one from the race track right what a blessing and what a truck and no ghetto artwork on it either...

 

[gimpyrobb]

Yes it is David. I guess I will never live that down, huh?

 

[73m819]

i would say that truck is camoed for urban warfare

 

[Westech]

and look at the pic of the M109.. the exhaust is coming out of the stack! WOW

 

[gimpyrobb]

It always did when running. It just wouldn't when sitting. Jeff has since found a fix for me. Thanks Jeff.
