    My next project

    My next project

    I am so excited that I finally acquired a deuce. It’s a 1958 M35a2 wo/w. We recovered it today and brought it to @whitgreen77 place for short term storage. This may be a little long but I’d like to share how I came to own this. Two weeks ago I was supposed to bring my M37 to the the Regional...

    New to me M101a1

    Thanks. I just sold a M116a3 a couple of weeks ago for a friend that buys generators at auction and I like the way it pulled behind my 2500. I will probably buy one from him at some point. I wanted this to be able to pull behind my M37.

    New to me M101a1

    I have been patiently waiting to get a trailer since I bought my truck several years ago. Found one pretty close and in very good shape for a 1968. Bed has been sprayed with bedliner and needs a good cleaning. I am so excited to get my hands on one.
