MEP-003A with only 100 or so hours on it, but it had been scavenged for parts by GL or whoever had it before. I got the rest of the parts, but am still only partway getting it back together again.
I'm not sure why almost everyone here has jumped on the "he needs a dump truck" bandwagon. M817s are expensive, they are pulling $6K to $10K at auction, since the quarries and construction companies seem to snag them all. Unless he'll be doing dirt moving for a living, I suggest a deuce will be...
OR, you can get a AN/PRM-34 portable tester and use it for all your VRC-12 radio series testing needs. That way, you don't have to have an FCC violation. Just a suggestion.
I have the box checked to select sending me an email to my private email address whenever someone sends me a PM on Steel Soldiers. Recently, I haven't been getting these emails. Anyone else missing these notices?
I am still getting the PMs, just not getting an email letting me know one has...
I plan on going back next week to get more stuff. Will snag it then. I might have to sort it out first, there is a lot of rusted bolts in the bottom that are nothing more than scrap. Only the stuff on top has survived since it's not in the wet bottom of the container.

Got the pictures I took there, not a whole lot of photos that I haven't taken pics of before, but here you go.
Pics 1&2: CUCV pickup and M880s sitting idle, rusting away until someone rescues them....
Pic 3: Very nice 5-ton sitting right up front, completely gone over and waiting for a buyer...
Looks great! Now you just gotta paint it up in 24087 with a yellow nose, and you'll have the whole Vietnam tractor thing going for it!
Even if you don't, it looks fantastic!
Sorry guys, I don't think I'm gonna have time before the rally to make up a T-shirt design this time. Maybe by fall event. But as it sits, the Spring event is 2-1/2 weeks away and even if I come up with a design by week's end, it doesn't give the shirt company enough time to knock it out and...
