Galaxie did you just do a regular title and registration? Did you get a plate for on road on the spot?

I have not sent my paperwork to Indy yet. I'm going to do the Indiana Historic Military Vehicle and send it straight to the main BMV. My M998 isn't eligible for a couple more weeks. Personally I think your branch manager is wrong. But they have their own little fiefdoms and it may be hard to...

Lol! I owe you a preferred beverage! Hah! Sounds like my old Beetle. Now I just need Amazon to send me the replacement bulbs!

When my M38 was inspected, the officer just looked for the vin and kept saying “Very Cool!” as he was filling out the paperwork. I think most Leo’s are exmil and/or fans of anything military. There was absolutely no functional check. Happily in that regard my M998 would pass rigorous scrutiny...

In my jusirdiction I have to go PAY for the inspection at the local police station. State trooper or deputy might be different and perhaps free, but they are thin and spread out over here. City cops just sit around looking for something to do.

Beis, welcome to the group! My family has roots in Romney, my Grandfather played basketball for Purdue in 1915! Interestingly both the SF97 and the notarized assignment from Iron Planet denote an actual VIN. That number is of course the vehicle production serial number (not factory registration...

SF97 came 4 months to the date of purchase, 6 weeks following the EUC. Still prominently stamped “Off Road Use Only” in red ink at the top. American Collectors provided me with insurance. Haggarty had better coverage for twice the price. I added the M998 to my M38 policy and the rate went up...

Their website site reflects that all of the GPET-001 tools are going to the government, no longer for sale.

I can imagine when my M998 was new and my eyes were 25 years younger, I might have been able to navigate at night at a walk. My green vision is still pretty good. But that ain't much light! They still utilize this technology, or is the military just using optics?

Ok, I did the easy thing and ran a ground wire to the other ground wires in the headlight box. Maybe there was always supposed to be a ground wire like all the other lights? Wouldn't surprise me considering the numnuts that put the light on back when had the parts stack in the wrong order. Now...

Turns out my M998 blackout driving light works and is green. Problem apparently is lack of ground to the vehicle on the hold down attach bracket. Am I missing something there? Is there supposed to be something attached to that bracket? I see where the other lights are grounded inside the...

According to Kascar there aren't glow plugs any more that are marketed as non-swelling. Perhaps this is old news or wrong, but as a newbie to diesels, I thought I'd try to save some poor sole reading through old threads and then searching for them. Perhaps there are less swelling brands. I would...

My 1993 M998 6.2, auctioned in August 2017, came with the Nartron Smart Start control box:

I never even realized the hood was full green, not camo. I was able to clean up and show some original unit numbers on the hood. So I think I'll go with it as is. I did strip and paint the top grill and lift eyes because they were so pitiful peeling. That's about as far as I'm going, except...

1993 M998 Indiana 10 weeks for my first EUC, 1 day to get it delivered by wheel lift wrecker (175 miles), 16 weeks for the SF97 with bold red stamp, almost 2 weeks for a Bill of Sale from IP, also with bold red stamp. Word has it that Indiana will accept a BOS. I waited until I had possession...

10 weeks for EUC. Going on 4 months for the SF97.

I have a 1942 Clarktor 6 MILL-44 heavy Clark aircraft tug. I'm in the process of putting this fine machine back into service order. That seems to be the easy part. Finding any service record on the tug has not been easy. So I'm looking for suggestions how I might go about finding out where my...

Hi Everybody. Glad to be here. I'm new to Military Vehicles. You guys and gals sure have some cool stuff, and a LOT of information! I just bought a 1942 Clark MILL-44 Tructractor (read airfraft tug), and I'm going to be searching and asking for help in it's restoration. Also, I may be looking...
