RE: heat I ran a 50-50 mix of filtered WMO & diesel. Too much time spent cleaning up. More trouble than it's worth. Eric CBVET

Dale, I had the same problems & tried the same solutions. I tossed it & put in a wood stove. I'll save the WMO for vehicle fuel. Eric CBVET

RE: Re: RE: Suicide Budds? I guess I didn't make it clear. I've got the bolt-together wheels from an M900 series. I just can't imagine there are safety issues working on this type wheel. Maybe the tire guy misunderstood too. I may have taken more time to explain what I had if he hadn't been so...

Well, I stopped by a Firestone dealer that I've done business with for 20 years. They sell car, truck, & implement tires. Asked if they could fix my M900 series, 2-piece wheel, with a slow leak. He said "Those are suicide Budds, we don't work on them". When I asked what he was talking about, he...

Am I missing something when I use the member list? Is there an easier way to find a specific name than just working through the list? Using alphabetical listings, is there a way to skip to the "Ms" or "Rs" or whatever? Thanks, Eric CBVET

Okay, so what the heck is a pullover gauge? I spent some time with 81mm mortars, & I don't recall ever hearing about it. Of course there's a lot I don't remember from 41 years ago.......... Eric CBVET

Cattle Cars Wow! Some of you guys really had it made, with fancy transportation like in the pictures here. I rode in "cattle cars" at Cam Ranh Bay, Phu Bai, & DaNang. Nothing but a semi trailer with a few holes chopped in the sides, & usually some chain link fence over the holes. No benches...

Anyone know a source for engine gaskets for Deuce gassers? Need valve cover gaskets right now for 2 trucks. I know I could make them or use RTV, I'd just rather get originals. Memphis & Saturn don't have them. Eric CBVET

As Dante wrote, "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here". The guys here will lead you astray. They'll make you want to buy vehicles you have no use for or can't afford. Your "normal" friends will abandon you once they figure out that you only call them when you need help with something really...

RE: Fuel for the Duece Burns fine! Eric CBVET

I think they look very cool. I'd like to have one. I don't understand why anyone pierces their lip, nose, tongue, etc. And I don't want to. Eric CBVET

RE: Re: RE: What is it? emr, Do you know if they built these things at Picatinny? Eric CBVET

Thanks! Eric CBVET

What is a "Triwall" as mentioned in GL ads?

Thanks a lot Daniel! If I buy it, I'll do as the instructions show. Don't want to buy more tires and these are very good. Eric CBVET

A riot wagon? Possible I guess. Maybe for hauling riot gear? Might be aluminum, I just assumed steel. Has a sticker on the windshield from Eglin AFB, but as I said it was a recent GL buy from Drexel Gardens in Indiana. When I Googled "81st troop command" I got a Guard unit from Edinburgh...

I thought paddywagon too, but there are no benches or handcuff attaching points. In fact there is no sign of anything having been attached inside. And the back door is just secured by a small hasp. No lights inside either. Front bumper markings: Pass side- 81TRPCMD Driver- 215 M110 Can anyone...

Anyone ever seen a cargo box like this? It has a steel " body ", about 7' high inside. Has openings at top of sidewalls covered with expanded metal. Hinged steel door about 3' wide on back. Peaked roof. Body is bolted down to original bed sides, front, & back. Vinyl cover kinda hides the metal...

Loctite is cheap, readily available, & it works. Eric CBVET

Got mine at NAPA. Eric CBVET
