Those M3 Scout Cars are getting pretty uncommon, and pricey as well. Glad another one has found a good home! Please post more pics as you restore this piece of history....

Military Radio Setup (RT-524 based) underhood-mounted welder setup (a lot of offroaders have this setup) Hi-Lift jack mount/dual fuel can mount/spare tire mount (exterior)

Not at all. They all smell like expensive booze, and cheap hookers. And cigars. ;-)

Don't worry. If you need a deuce, I have 3 to sell you! :-D

Put a brass wire wheel in a power drill, and LIGHTLY work it on the CARC overspray.

The DUKW is the floating version of the CCKW, most of the mechanical parts are the same. The issue will be rust repair on the hull, which is a PITA from what I have heard. Hope it finds a home, when restored those DUKWs are worth a small fortune.

Got that from David Doyle?

No pure crude. Pure crude has all sorts of tars and junk in it that needs to be removed in order to go through the IP, and even if you filter it, I just wouldn't. The multifuel engine will run on a bunch of mixtures of fuel, but it gets the most bang for the buck with diesel. Diesel has the...

I'll second that. Seen a lot of neat military items on CL....

Welcome to ODA - OD Anonymous. "My name is Mike..." all: "Hi, Mike." "...and...<sob>...I have OD disease. <CRY>" "It's okay, we're here for you. Don't you feel better now that you opened up to everyone here?"

Awesome recovery! Keep us posted with lots of pics as the restoration progresses....

Are you sure, Chuck? I had a 1964 M416 trailer, that I completely tore down to every last nut and bolt in 1998, and the frame unbolted from the body tub, I sent it to the sandblasters in two pieces, and bolted it back together.

I have seen $200 for a rusted out beater, up to $1200 for a perfectly restored example. Average good used trailers in the $500 range.

Where did all the classifieds go? I had 6 or 7 ads listed....

These are great before and after pics, quite a turn around from almost scrap metal condition to excellent condition at the very least! Your restos give the rest of us inspiration to work on our own rides! Any more?

Restore that sucker - save it from its vine-entrapped cage! rofl

I updated the list as much as I could to make the info easy for res0wc18. Hope it helps....

RE: M54A1C I have a book at home printed in 1992, right after Desert Storm, with plenty of US military vehicles pictured in it, including some showing M39-series 5-tons being used in the Southwest Asian operational theater. That would include M54 cargo variants. I would guess the military...

That is just too friggin' awesome. 16 more tanks saved from the scrap heap! Now only if there were a few more German Panthers sitting in Polish junkyards like was found a few years back....

I updated the list with commonality of the vehicles, related to how often they are seen. The last one I'm not sure, I pulled the designation off the "M" list, but I have no idea what it is. I also am missing the designation for the HEMTT wrecker. gimpy - I know, some call them...
