If anyone is interested in helping out an unemployed SS, I have come up with a list of stuff that I didn't sell at Aberdeen, that I could bring in the truck. The list is too long to post, so I have attached it to this post. PM me if you need anything on the list. Only 4 days left before I...

Well, I towed a friend's M37 yesterday to the shop to get some work done on it, behind the deuce. It was only across town, so I didn't disconnect the driveshafts, but everything was in neutral and let the steering float. It towed right behind the deuce like a dream. Only way I knew it was...

Removing the top and side racks is a PITA but it can be done with one person. But I would highly recommend doing it if you plan on offroading your truck, especially the side racks. Having the racks go rattle-rattle-bang-bang the whole time your truck is offroad is very annoying. Not to...

Pretty neat! A little time, some tools and plenty of know-how, and Steel Soldiers can always get the job done!

Looks like a shoebox....

Looks awesome! Wish I had a tractor that looked like that....

I don't think towing a M37 behind a deuce would slow it down too much, especially with both of the driveshafts removed and the front hubs unlocked (Warn hubs). Maybe on the hills only. I towed home several deuces behind my own deuce, and it managed to get to 52 mph on the flat and level, but...

Will be flat towing the M37 behind the M35 on the way to and from Haspin this time around - Cabell has assured me in the past that there is no problem flat towing the M37 behind a deuce, so I'm gonna give it a try. Drop both driveshafts, float the steering, safety chain everything and PULL.

I have used military ones for $12 ea. A little rusty, but can be cleaned up.

Thanks, guys. I decided that this pump trailer on this end is probably going to be turned into a mobile BBQ grill, the motor is locked up and the pump parts itself aren't that great a condition. It is a rare trailer, but there are better pump trailers out there for enthusiasts to own if they...

Stopping Wed night? Correct me if I'm wrong, but when we stop Wed. night, we'll be in Haspin, just like last time. Confirmed with Cabell, route will be same as last time, timetable may change a little bit but according to his menu, he wants to get there Wed. night in time to stir up some grub.

I'd say it's worth at least $10,000 just the way it is. Restored, multiply by three. Great save!

Put me down for needing food as well, and my friend who is pretty sure he'll show up on the way home from Oklahoma City. So, +2 for food. Thanks, Cabell!

I'm picking the rims up for Kenny today, confirmed with his friend on the phone yesterday. Not sure about the deal with CARNAC/Ferro.

Westy needs to learn how to spell - everyone on YouTube is gonna think were all a bunch of inbred junior high dropouts. THNAK you for making the video about HASPEN. :) Really, though - awesome video! Except for the spellnig.

In seeing where you live, that G506 Chevy might have been a leftover from the construction of the Alaskan Highway in the 1940s. I wouldn't be surprised....

Very resourceful! Most don't have the equipment that is available to you, however. We just flip it with a bunch of drunk friends picking up on one side.

I saw a pic recently in a book of a gun truck in Vietnam being towed by a wrecker. The wrecker was definitely M54-series 5-ton truck based platform, but the wrecker bed was a Holmes-type system, not a hydraulic system like the M543, M62, etc. Was there a M54-based Holmes-type wrecker, and if...

I swear, one day I'm gonna make leather jackets up for the Haspin Acres Mowercycle Gang. Change of plans - the deuce and the M37 will be in attendance. 2007 - no MV with me. 2010 - two MVs. In a few years, I'll have a military museum towed behind a M123 tractor the way things are going.

Those all look British to me. I see a few US bikes in the second picture, but I don't see any German ones in there. Pretty neat pics!
