I have some aluminum diamond plate laying around, but it's in sections. I may just get steel diamond plate cut to size to fit the deck and be done with it. The underside of the frame and deck will be coated with bedliner or underbody coating to halt the rust that is there. Or at least slow...

Open to mosquitos And ugly as sin. Hauled lots of bombs So the war we would win. Burma Jeep.

BTT - JAKE please update the list, there are many who have dropped out over the last couple weeks. I'm still going with my M35A2, no passengers.

Well, I spent half the day today tearing down the trailer to the frame and suspension, so I can see what I have to work with. After removing the body, which is shot, the wiring, shocks, hand brake assembly, little brackets and other junk that will not survive into the next incarnation, I saw...

Welcome...to the machines. :)

Those aren't M-ATVs, those are FMTV trucks with the armor upgrade. They look weirder to me, but it's what keeps truck drivers "over there" alive.

Here's a couple without a canvas cover, if that's what you want.

I'll bring tires. They burn great too. :grd:

Btt.

Anyone? Bueller?

Sir, you bring the term "hillbilly" to a whole new level. And for that, we salute you. We'll laugh at you as you drive down the street, but we salute you nonetheless.

I miss the show that used to be in Medina, Ohio. That was a nice little show. Have fun, guys.

WOW! Now that's a hard-to-find bugger there. Never seen one like it in person, although I have seen a couple similar WWII era phone maintenance trucks. The basis for this truck is the G506 Chevy, 1-1/2 ton model. Parts are not rare, but getting more uncommon by the year. They are where...

That's a decent price. 4 years isn't that long a time to get an engine started again, as long as parts weren't taken off it. Try to get him as low as possible, then when she's yours, sell off the bed and the plow to recup some costs, and start building her back. I wouldn't say parts for these...

Looks good - I have to play with the M416 on this end this week, I'll use your mods as an example for mine. Thanks!

Absolutely! It started life as a WWII Chevrolet, called the G506. It's a 1-1/2-ton 4x4, over 160,000 of them were made in the war. Here's what it started out looking as:

It's about 10x10x5. Weighs a good 10 pounds or so. Here's a pics of a similar model on ePay. The seller had it listed as WWII, but it's not, mine has a 1978 contract date on it.

I got an old speaker box from Colemans last time I was there. It's labelled as a LS-215 speaker. It's almost exactly like the old LS-3 speakers from WWII, except it's smooth black paint and not crinkly black paint. Does anyone out there have any information of this old speaker type? I have...

Gent came down from MD to attempt pickup today, decided there wasn't enough there for his purposes. It's still available, but only until April 1st. After that, the torchman cometh.

Love the green astroturf carpeting. Great save! Fix it up, paint it green and SMILE!
