Good Lord, Chris - if this isn't done, what are you going to be driving to Aberdeen this year? :razz:

There are a bunch right now on eBay for $35 shipped. Here's the link: CY-7875/PRC-104 Military Surplus Battery Case Assembly - eBay (item 280327281353 end time Apr-25-09 19:37:24 PDT)

I don't know, bud - I see a lot of good parts on there. The front bumper, rims, the brush guards, a myriad of small parts. Guys like us on this site buy stuff and part it out to the last bit to save at least SOME of it for other trucks more worthy of resto. Get a socket set on that Power...

Tomorrow's the day - got the trailer hooked up and ready to roll early a.m. Always love junkyard crawling!

AWESOME! I love it!

Scoot with the mud, and 70deuce with the snow. I'm underwhelmed. C'mon, in Colorado - you got bigger piles of snow than that? :-D

Went to the Timonium hamfest this past weekend in Maryland. There was a gent there from Ontario Surplus, had a picture of a GMC deuce and a half, sign read "FOR SALE IN NE OHIO, $500" He said it ran not long ago, but needs fuel pump and starter work. He says it has typical rust for 60 year...

The Black Stallion, on Long Island no less! Great pics....

Try these guys - they had a couple CY-7875 boxes recently... American Milspec, LLC

Rausch Creek Offroad Park, near Ravine, PA. About 1 hour north of Harrisburg, PA on I-81.

Looks pretty schweet! I like the 5-ton winch mounted on the front....

$8500 in MA is about average, provided it hasn't rusted out underneath. Which is common in MA.

It will be Labor Day weekend, 2009. Easy to remember. It will run Thursday-Monday, but the big dates are Friday-Sunday. There will be other groups invited as well, from other boards. We're looking at potentially 50 or so vehicles total, including civvy offroaders and jeeps. I probably...

I have one, and no I'm not selling. They are not cheap. PRC-104s are where you find them, so when they pop up you best be prepared to pay then and quickly. They pop up on eBay once in a while, I'm sure you are looking there. Other than that, I recommend the following dealer, Mike Murphy...

Sand the body's sheet metal REAL thin.

I really like the lines of the GAZ. Has styling akin to the old US-made Dodge Power Wagons. Very nice collection!

So plentiful in England because a lot of them never came home after the war. It was cheaper to leave them there than to put on the ships to send back to USA. Not to mention, Hotchkiss built thousands of Willys MB-style jeeps for the French military, used well into the 1980s. There are still...

Heck, I've tried deeper mud than that in my CJ3A. Well, I said TRIED.

Just to make sure we understand the situation - you have 16.5 inch tires, and want to replace them with 16 inch tires? I don't think they will fit right....

And such is the life after service for most of the dump trucks that get surplussed out. They are worked very hard, for very long, until in some cases, they are literally falling apart from the stress and corrosion. It's a sad thing to see, but on the other hand, you know all the hard work it...
