    FAV in Utah or Nevada

    Did anybody else attempt to contact Diesel Dave about the FAV? That was the instructions in his 2 youtube vlogs, so as to not burden the museum owner with dozens of emails from tire kickers, he said to contact him about specific items.

    Reproduction smoke grenade control box - Blank Version COMPLETE!

    Dataplates.net is out of Missoula Montana, I've never met the man in person. The T-Shirt launcher idea was to be for a Mardi Gras Parade, local, that did not happen due to the Chinese-lab created with training by USA scientists Covid 19 virus. Concept is sound. Use a heat shrink tube to...

    Reproduction smoke grenade control box - Blank Version COMPLETE!

    That looks gosh-darned good! What does the back side of the main housing look like? Did you print in bosses for drilling/tapping to screw on the base plate?

    FAV engine rebuild

    Craig, were you able to tell if your flywheel was lightened? Re: Engine Cases-I spoke with a former CB Performance employee back then (CB used to be Claude's Buggies). CB was one of the companies that sold Don Hatz the parts he used to build up engine cases. The VW Engine Number list on...

    FAV Fuel Cell/Tank Anti-Squeak Foam Strips

    I use this self-adhesive closed cell 5mm foam for another purpose (Special Forces GMV IED Kevlar Seat anti-squeak). When applied to your fuel cell along the V support bracket area at the B Pillar it can help eliminate the annoying squeaks: CJ5 Jim still has the remnant of a similar foam...

    Can somebody please give me the dimensions for the exterior face plate for the FAV Engine Protection System? I am trying to have the face plates made again, at a minimum; the entire functional EPS circuit board if possible. I am talking to a couple different electronics people about the tech...

    Rear seat base installation

    My un-installed Driver Side rear seat bucket is not pre drilled for installation pop rivets. The truck bodies were pre-assembled by type before setting on the chassis. The blind rivets are installed on the crew compartment side of the tub. I wouldn't think the trans tunnel would be prefilled...

    9th Infantry Division FAV #0014 has emerged, Chenowth Chassis 4LWC 1592, so far the 2nd lowest number known to still exist behind Mogman's #0010. Important stuff is intact, especially the rear anti-sway bar system. She is going to need side bins, radio shelf, wedge fuel cell, air log...

    FAVs at Military Vehicle Museums

    In the parade the FAV has a weapons mount installed on top, I can't tell if it is original or copy yet. It is tough to see with the piece of camo net there but it looks like it has the bolt lug welded to the square tubing side, for the clamp. Guess we have to find somebody who lives close...
