They would be great. The tanks are stainless, aluminum, or fiberglass, and all of them would be great for hauling biodiesel.

Last weekend, a few Front Royal area Steel Soldiers members got together for a few beers at the American Legion, each of us driving our trucks. Got to meet each other after mostly just sending PMs back and forth, always a pleasure meeting new folks! Attending our little informal gathering were...

I am going to Gilbert, if you can get the rims up to me, I'd be happy to haul them.

I believe a certain unit in Vietnam used the "yellow nose" so that the unit commander could find his trucks from the air. Something like that, I'm sure someone here knows the details.

Might also try spraying poison around the truck, that stuff will "soak in" and make the truck smell really bad to bees and prevent them from making a home in the future. Doesn't last forever, though, have to re-apply it every couple months. Also, I've heard if you hang a cheesecloth bag of...

Okay, had a great time, met with nickd and his very nice USMC M274 mule at TNJs last Friday, got to meet ironhorse there as well. I didn't find all the parts I wanted, but got enough to make my trip worthwhile. 5tonpuller - found those sockets on a junker wrecker, but the bolts were too large...

What's it like having money? rofl

Yes, but in some places, you need a CDL to drive a 5-ton truck. If the deuce is the biggest MV you can drive WITHOUT the hassle of getting a CDL, it may be worth the extra $$$ to someone. I would be interested in owning a M35A3, but the prices are still too high for my tastes.

He he, M1075 is one of the lucky few that got them at auction. They are still pretty new, and in demand.

RE: Re: RE: M42 Duster part needed Looks like your students are doing a great job! Nice Duster!

Wow, looks like you guys had a fun time. Wish I didn't have to work this weekend. :(

Send a PM to ShieldWolf37. He's in Front Royal, VA, not far from you, and is big into the tube era radio gear. Might be able to walk you through any repairs you need done.

Anyone in the nearby area who might be interested in it? It's got the original bed, after 50+ years most of the survivors have had the original bed removed. This would be worthy of rescue...

I know of two, I'm sure there's a few more. Try sending a PM to Ferroequinologist or FreightTrain.

Hmmm....someone build the real thing! :grd:

RE: got it home Sweet! Looks pretty complete, even has the spare tire mounted in the right place. Respool the winch, flip the headlights, and paint her GREEN!

RE: pockets Okay, will look for it. I have my lefts and rights mixed up - the one I assume you need is the passenger's side rear, for a M543 wrecker.

Just had an idea: Dave, remember that camping spot that we had last year? If we can squeeze everyone in there, and it's available, I say we drop trailers and rope off the entire spot with our troop seats (like fencing) around the general area while we are out on the trail. If anyone has a...

5ton puller - will check on the trailer tongue. BUT - you're going to have to show me a pic of what the "right rear stab pocket" is.
