Wow, awesome vids! Bet you are proud of that truck, you have put a lot of work into it and now that it moves (and moves well!) bet you can't wait to make it's first long journey in it! That beast actually sounds very quiet - the second video barely records any interior noise. How does it...

I have owned both an M100 trailer, and several M416 trailers. IIRC they looked identical, I would guess the M100 version could be used on the M416 without any problems. If there are minor problems with fitting, like width in the "groove" perhaps it can be remedied with a grinder to make it work?

Eat beans for dinner and sleep in a warm sleeping bag. Heat yourself. :D

The LEAST number of people we had at this rally was 5 trucks and 6 guys, but that was the first rally and it was kinda a test run. Since then we regularly get 10-20 trucks and 15-30 people. Big enough for a showing, but small enough to keep it personal. Less than a week to go!

2 weeks to go, guys! Anyone showing up on Friday with plans to wheel? Or is everyone who is showing up on Friday coming in late and only plan on wheeling on Sat. and Sun.? We need to plan someone getting there early and roping off our spot with cones and rope...

Looks pretty good!

Many thanks to moving chicane, and dk8019 and his wife, for coming out for the Torsk work weekend, you all did a heckuva job and from what Mike E. the chief of the boat told me, this was one of the most successful work weekends yet. A record number of participants, and a record amount of tasks...

I remember reading about 4 of your truck builds in Four Wheeler magazine - 2 were the War Wagon (both configurations of it), 1 was the faux-HET build, and 1 was the Scorpion. I think this will become the 5th. :)

He has other texts of lots of other models of WWII and post-WWII armor, and how many are left and where they are. After looking through them, however, it seems that the only ones photographed are either in govt. museums, acting as gate guards to military installations, displayed at VFW and...

This guy did a pretty good job of tracking down as many as he could for this "how many survive?" text. I'm sure there are some that missed his research, but suffice to say this is the lion's share of them.

Ditto what the above said. We need to know what you threw in the tanks, and the noises/smells/sights that you experienced when you last tried to start it up. Only then can we help you.

Anyone? And yes, LOGSA has it, but not for the majority of us.

Need any of the following parts manuals for M101 105mm howitzer, in .pdf form: TM 9-1015-203-20P TM 9-1015-203-34P Anyone have a copy? Can't find it anywhere online.

See? That's what you get for making the truck too purdy - now you don't wanna use it! :)

Ironic thing is, we're the only ones that get filmed extensively by other park-goers when we show up! But yes, we do get twice the blame due to our size, and the Jeepers can't get by us.

I owned two replicas made from real parts, at $1K each. They were worth the money, and I have since sold them to someone else for their gun truck project. However, I will say that I used them for display purposes only, and when I buy a new set, they will be the airsoft replicas. They are...

shenk, Because of the race last April, we were only able to do the East side of the road, which costs extra for those driving. Might want to do the west side this time, it has lots more acreage anyways to explore. There are also some green trails that we don't often hit on the West side, some...

Nice CUCV, Dudley, sure looks like a keeper to me!

In the past it was pretty much every man for himself cooking. Some groups were formed. Whatever you want to do, is good. I plan on bringing my own...

I have always argued that the decision to replace the jeep, a 1/4-ton vehicle, with the HMMWV, a 5/4-ton vehicle, was misguided. Yes, the HMMWV is a great vehicle, and I think it's place in the US inventory, as far as a size of vehicle, is secure. However, I believe that a small, lightweight...
