One more I found on the internet. Looks like an early one, no name and made out of field expedient diamond plate.

BTT. It's been a little while since this thread was at the top - lots of new members and trucks since then. Any new before and afters, junker to jewels?

Good work - beats my solution to a bent bumper, I paid $100 for a new one. Now I have the old bent up one laying around doing nothing, but hey, I don't weld.

I don't think I'll ever order from GLSOD. If I want to pay retail prices for surplus items I need, I'll visit a surplus shop and give my money to them. As it turns out, I am pretty thrifty, and I shop more in bulk (which would necessitate buying from GL, but via auction) and at the MV shows.

Heaviest I towed with a deuce was another deuce. Actually I used a non-winch truck to pull a winch truck, so the towed load was about 500-600 lbs. heavier than the towing truck. As far as trailers, the heaviest I pulled was a 10K lb. laundry trailer with all the laundry equipment on it...

Are you guys bringing the M819 this year or the M923?

Just got my paid in full invoice, but I think I'm too late for the gent who is going there today to pick them up. Anyone going to Eglin sometime next week that might be able to get it to the GA rally?

Would like to know more information about the gun trucks in Vietnam, built on the M37 3/4-ton chassis. There were a few made in country, some pics I have of them are below. There is only one reproduction M37 gun truck, the Malfunction, in existence. I would like some more detailed pics, both...

I won one of the tents as well - need someone to pick up and either pack/ship it to me, or give to someone at the GA rally who may be coming up through this way (doghead?). Anyone near the Eglin AFB, please PM me. Thanks.

Some more pics.

Thought I'd start a pic thread for the big Gilbert rally, there were a lot of Steel Soldiers there. The weather was perfect, the trucks were absolutely kicka$$, and the buying/selling was great too. Couldn't be any better! The trip up was uneventful, except for some rain on the way, but the...

Saw this on Craigslist - the seller puts in the ad that it's too uncommon a machine to modify into a rock crawler. Looks like it's very nice shape. 1952 M38A1.... 1952 Willys Jeep M38A1 Army Jeep

More pics....

Some more pics, forwarded to me. They were taken from the bed of Cabell's truck up front on the convoy on Saturday's ride around the countryside....

You forced me to do this.

Saw this on Craigslist, I don't have the $$$ set aside for it right now, but I'd hate to see this end up in the hands of someone who is going to use it for a beater woodchuck truck. $700 for it, need a brake part or two. A friend saw it and says the body is great, no rust problems. 1977...

I initially said the hard top was better, but I changed my tune when I did the 2008 VA rally, when I had a soft top and turning it into a convertable was sweet. With a hard top, it would be much harder. I haven't noticed that much of a difference in dB level between the soft and hard top, they...

Got the brochure in the mail today. Lots of neat stuff. Too bad I can't get off work that day. If you buy anything, post pics.

Anyone? Bueller?

Looking to get a pallet of two trailer lube plates shipped from Northern VA to Roswell NM, was wondering if anyone out there could provide a shipping service or some prices for me. Pallet is standard sized, holding two of these items, total weight is estimated at 750 pounds. It would help...
