Now I’m curious.... Why did you send the boxes by parcel service? Will you drive to Fehmarn and have a chase vehicle for the trip home?

It sounds like an exciting recovery trip is in your near future. I wish you the best of luck and hope the trip goes smoothly!

I am only one winning lottery ticket away from that. But, until then, I’ll be happy to live vicariously through you and Mitchell. Thank you for posting the descriptions and pictures of your progress!!!

First off, to everyone that contributed to the designs, awesome job! They are excellent! I voted for 49cja2. I have simple tastes. I would buy 99nouns shirt if it didn’t have “got lugs?” on it. Nothing against the design... just my preference.

Sorry for a dumb question.... but what is a “DA”?

A truck that SS member nofearnohope previously owned had extensions sown into the bed cover. For the few times I was in the back of his truck, I really enjoyed having more head room! Here's a picture from the 2015 Texas Rally >>>

m16ty - Congratulations on your acquisition and good luck on the recovery! Mitchell Putz (SS member putz273) has a M1000 trailer that was refurbished by a shop here in Texas. Mitchell uses the trailer in his heavy haul business and pulls it with both his Peterbilt and his M1070. He is very...

I experienced this adventure vicariously through Joe and Jason. Now we need to talk Joe into towing the Aardvark to the rally next Spring!!!

The Washington County Veterans Association cosmetically restored this F-111 Aardvark with donations from many local business and individuals in Brenham, Texas. Restoration work was completed at the Brenham airport. SS member Texasvet100 (Joe) towed the Aardvark from the airport to its new home...

I remember seeing this concept before... I can’t believe it was 4 years ago! https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?126391-Jerry-can-holders&highlight=Jerry

It’s your truck, so I’d say that taking them off or leaving them is your call. Just a thought... would your opinion change if they weren’t crooked and actually had Jerry cans in them? It might look neat it they actually had Jerry cans (just my opinion).

That sounds good to me! Please feel free to organize something and I’ll try to make it. Also, I know a few MV owners in the area that don’t get on SS, and I’ll let them know if you plan something. Feel free to use this thread if you’d like...

Who left? Jason? I have purchased from them a few times over the years. I worked with Jason each time, and was pleased with the transaction every time! Jason’s customer service was excellent! I agree with Fuzzy about their prices... Part prices are hit-or-miss and whole trucks are typically...

Congrats on the acquisition and successful recovery! That’s a good looking truck!

I can read the classified ad now, “Ran when exploded!” All kidding aside, I’m enjoying this thread and looking forward to more!

The HET! First, I want to thank Mitchell Putz for letting us enjoy his big truck! I had a blast, and the HET made my weekend! So back at the ranch, Kvrazelm923 was sizing things up.... I learned that one feels mighty powerful at the winch controls of a M1070! And then... the M1070...

At the Museum of the American G.I. My general observation at the Museum was that there were only a fraction of the vendors we've seen in prior years. However, I believe the living history camps were a lot better this year. (Note, I had to leave the Museum early and didn't get a lot of...

The Convoy.... On Saturday, we have a police-escorted convoy from the Brazos Valley Offroad Ranch (where we camp) to the Museum of the American G.I. Our rally is timed each year to coincide with the Museum's annual living history weekend. After spending several hours at the Museum, we convoy...
