    MV Addiction filled. Reis the Beast M1078A0 is born

    So instead of individual application (each rivet head), you paint/coat the whole surface, is that the idea?

    MV Addiction filled. Reis the Beast M1078A0 is born

    Didn't know what SikaFlex is (so, true to the wisdom of ColdWarrior, looked it up): - That is a radically righteous product! https://www.sika-distributor.com/sika-joint-sealants-waterproofing.php How did you apply it, with a caulking gun?

    Valence's 1972 M35A2

    That sure is pretty country out there in Utah, and what a day: - Looks like it was picture-perfect weather! Is there high humidity in that part of Utah? Because as clear as that air is I am guessing not, like 50%-60% or something. Nice!

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    Hey, DeetFreek, if it gets to that point please remember to exit the cab before reaching the cliff: - Because we plain like you being around, you see?!

    Looks great! Never seen those particular latches. They look solid. Anything to keep them from "rattling" open when you're underway?

    Sweet, indeed, a second to that motion! Are those riv-nuts (at the bed-support) or just same monster big pop-rivets?!

    Got you, Mad Texan, now you're going First Class!! That would match all the other details, I should have known! I was thinking maybe they were just going to slide on a plywood shelf. But you got it all going A1 style!!

    Nicely done! Real nice!! You know there's some kind of teflon ribbon you might consider putting as parallel runners under those drawers. Make them slide easier under load. Wonder if I can find that...

    G749 preservation

    Is that anything like the buttons on the USN crackerjack trousers: - In Boot Camp we were told it was (13) chances for a girl to say "No" Except this would be 32 chances to live until a successful landing, and say "Yes". Right, plowboy?!!

    M1007 - CUCV Suburban Clone Build Thread

    I guess I should know what that is. But I don't. What is the "the" chalk test?!

    It sure looks great, Mad Texan! For my two bits, the milk crates look just fine like they are: - The bonus also is that you can see what's IN the crates (that you won't be able to do if they get a panelled front).

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Those T-34's are beautiful. Amazing story about them rolling straight off the tank factory floor in Stalingrad, directly into combat action. Loving the rough-casting visible on the turrets.

    Colorado Bill SB19-054 RE: (Former) Military Vehicle Motor Vehicle Regulation

    Whatever the law "on the books", typically one is eligible to file an exception. That's the way the program works for zoning law anyway (which is the limit of my experience). But it might also apply to other legislation (but if you go that route you got to be willing to do all the homework and...

    M1007 - CUCV Suburban Clone Build Thread

    Probably for sure a dedicated thread here somewhere about tire life. But being from the Typically Lazy School (TLS) of data-gathering: - What is the general recommended anniversary milestone (+/-, dismissing tread wear as an issue) for replacing tires? - 5 Years? 10 Years? "Depends"? This...

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    Nice looking M-170, it's great when they're put to work (they were built for it)! Where did you pick up that beauty?

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Are those actual restored T-34's? Very nice! I think you already posted that quite a few are still operational, how many like that does the Russian military maintain?

    What have you done to your JEEP today

    1) Grab a beer. Cry in it. Finish the beer. 2) Fill a tall glass with cool clear water. 3) Drink it down. 4) Roll up the sleeves, walk back into the garage, and go to work! All Good!!
