That used to be one of the towbars I had. It is a short heavy, or at least I call it that. Was meant for the 10-ton cargo trucks many years ago, it is listed as a BII in the M123 series, shown in the manual. Jim Henry said he had ends for them, but not sure if he still does, he said he scraps...

Took the yellow submarine to see the big ships, huh? ;) The Beatles would be proud! Great pics! I like the yellow paint job, no really!

You lucked out Jay - last time I was at Winslow's I almost took the time to take a torch and cut out the rear frame member out of that R-2, but I had minimal time, so I passed up the chore. If I took the time, it would have ruined your new ride. Good thing I didn't.

Glad I could help, Den. Your CUCV is one of the cleanest I have ever seen!

There's one at John Winslow's place in NC. It's pretty well modified in the ass end.

Most of the vehicles shown in the GL ads on the left side of the page were from the auctions which closed on 7/1 and 7/8. Problems with the updating?

He also told me, when I was looking for a quality transmission jack, that I should type "tranny jack" into the Google search engine. My eyes are still burning from the pictures that came up. I blame PHD. Seriously, though, 4 of the 8 trucks I bought had "69" on the bridge plate. Seems that...

While I am not a fan of the Polaris vehicle, zoo does have a point. This was designed as a utility vehicle. Utility vehicles are designed for all-purpose utility roles, not an assault vehicle, amphibious vehicle, etc. The Willys jeeps and M151s fit this role to a T. They are supposed to be...

Good job on keeping the project going. This reminds me of the one M149 trailer I did buy, back in 1998. I won the item for minimum bid, $5.00, out of Ft. Meade. It was rusty as ****, and had a 2" circular drilled hole in the tank. I sold it not long after that, I should've had more...

I second that, and I don't even own one. But I have seen all the effort that it takes to set up the trailer, cook for 40-70 people at Haspin rally, clean all the dishes and equipment (mostly after every meal, but certainly once a day), and pack everything up when the rally is all over. Cabell...

Understood, Cabell. I still plan to put in at least one day this weekend, even if you can't make it up. I just added the flyer for the event, located in post #1 of this thread.

A couple more days to go - Cabell said he'd be in the area on Friday - Sunday, July 16-18. Can anyone lend a hand with some trail maintenance over those days? I think I can make it Friday.

Everyone missed the detail. The data plates says "XM211". It's an early production model, nice. The engine is easy to find parts for, and easy to find a replacement for if it's no good. The hard part is finding the original bed. Rebuilt engine...

It's an M24 Chaffee light tank. Here's a pic of it without the Home Shopping Network abomination.

Had to say it.

Can't say I've ever hauled any weird stuff in the deuce, well, besides myself. I have gone to Aberdeen with the back of the truck FULL, as in, no room at all. Saw this pic on SS a while back, it's not weird, as it is an engine, but the size of it, OH MY.

Giving one up for the Gimper. rofl

Wow, all the way back to M37s and M38s. Lots of history there, anyone in the area confirm what's up with that property?

Was it your collection, or was there a Steel Soldiers rally going on that we didn't know about?

Got it basically put back together, new glad hand hoses, new intervehicular cable, some paint (have a couple spots left to do). But it's coming along slowly.
