Dirt71 might be able to help find a home for them - he's not building 10-tons anymore, but he knows who he sold his trucks to, and they might want rare parts.

I'll be there on Saturday, after all IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! Have to spend time looking at green trucks and the displays they have there. It'll be quite a treat - maybe not for my daughter who'll be in tow, but did I mention IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! :)

As far as those thieves who can't read, maybe writing it in Spanish or "ghetto" would help.

Two things slow down a fuel thief. Handcuffs do. So does buckshot.

Sad to see so many trucks, especially the newer ones, ending up in the junkyard. Hopefully a few of them will be lucky to roll again, and provide parts for those we have that need TLC.

We have more torque in our lug nuts than that entire car puts out.

I know, I know. It's WAY too early to start talking about it. Just suffering from post-Aberdeen depression, wishing I got more time to cruise around the show and see more things. Every show is the same for me in one respect - I never get a really good chance to leave my spot and tour around...

I do buy the line that fuel costs contributed to the lack of attendance. Not so much the missing spaces, not sure why someone would pay $60 a space on a weekend with great weather to miss a show, but it does explain the lack of people who just show up to buy and cruise the show. I see this...

I need a tetanus shot just from looking at it.

I swear by a product called Kroil. Stuff is best when you soak it and leave for a day or two. Does wonders on rusty threads. Spray in on , grab the BFH and swing it!

Leaving in about 5 hours, truck and trailer are loaded up to the pucker factor. Hope to see a couple Steel Soldiers when I pull in late pm today. Save some brews for me! If anyone wants to stop by and say "hi" I'm in Yellow L/M 15.

Perhaps it might benefit you to put a "wanted" post and that pic in the classifieds, there always seems to be someone here who bought a CUCV and doesn't want the radio stuff in it, might be willing to sell it off for cheap.

Now just think of all the PM work it's gonna take to get the seat foam cushion material out of your a s s. You'll be crapping canvas for weeks. rofl

I'm looking for a few decent steel pot helmets. No liners or other parts, just the steel pot. LMK if you're bringing a few....

You're not going to set mileage records in a military truck regardless of what you do to it. But you can fuel it with half diesel and half free used motor oil, thereby halving the cost of fuel in the tank. In a way you are doubling the mileage for the fuel you pay for. It's just another way...

I'm gonna follow this thread - looks like an interesting project Lane! Hope I can see it one day...

Here's one that's kinda funny of an IL-76 takeoff in Australia....

Russians - you guys got the weirdest military vehicles, but the hottest young women. Totally not fair. ;)

I'm bringing: Hardigg storage boxes aluminum medical chests cannon shell crates misc. vehicle accessories tools manuals

Fifth wheels for 5-tons are easy to find, junkyards are littered with the remains of M52 and M818 series trucks. I'm sure there's someone on this site that has a parts truck that can sell a cheap fifth wheel to you.
