Anyone going to this one? 2 days to go. Come out and find some new stuff to populate your vehicle or collection with. Sounds like we have about 5 vehicles turning out at this point.

Hammer, you were right about 187. Plus 30 or so for changing the title. So somewhere around 210.
If I license it regular, with no restrictions, it is currently about 24 dollars. If I license it as intermittent and sell it to you in 2 years, you have to pay the big price again. It sounds...
Here are a couple more from the mission yesterday. Good weather and great time. No mechanical issues and no one got stuck. It was about 40 degrees out. Each time we stopped, people came to look at the vehicles. Good food and good friends.
When they started out a few years ago, there weren't that many entries. So the second year they asked if we could bring a military vehicle. We had one or two the first year. This year there were probably around 75 entries, our entry held 8 vehicles. It is fun to see how much more elaborate...
Just measured the rear axle on the Dodge ambulance. It has 9.50x16.5 with a 4.75 hole diameter. You can get by a little smaller, but if you get that size, it will fit on any 8 hole application you currently have or will in the future. I picked up 4 nice wheels and tires at a garage sale for...
Centralia Lighted Tractor Parade 2016
AAR. We had 7 vehicles. It rained like the dickens during pre parade set up. We took the Judges Choice award for the parade. There were 3 WW2 jeeps, 1- WW2 1 1/2 ton Chev, 1- WW2 CCKW, M151, M923, and M923A1. Was a bit on the nippy side but everyone...
I went to the wrecking yard and found an older Dodge or Ford, bigger center hole, which doesn't really matter with the trailer, but if you need to use one of those tires as a spare on your Dodge or Ford puller, they won't work if you get the GM wheel. You can also watch CL as people are selling...
98G there is another scenario to add to your list. I am trying to get a 923A2 straightened out in WA. The man bought it, probably GL or GP, a little over 3 years ago. Drove it to WA from CA and died before getting paperwork going. So truck sat for about 3 years and the estate is trying to...
If you change the seals in the rims, be sure to wire brush and clean the daylights our of the area where the seal seats. I took it to the tire shop and had them do 4 wheels, two were still bleeding off, but slower. Took it back, stayed and watched and they had not done a real good job on...
Scott that was the same number issue that I had when I licensed the 3 M1102 trailers. They had a 4 digit serial number and one of the trailers, there were 7 other trailers already registered with the same number. 3 of which came up stolen. The lady at the license desk at the county was a...
I haven't tried it yet and of course no one at DOL ever said anything about it. But it looks like it will work for our single axle small trailers. There is a gross weight limit on it.
Yup! That is the one. We may be able to license the small jeep and humvee trailers under this one. I usually don't tow those trailers more than twice a year.
Hammer, you are right. Unfortunately this title request is for Title in doubt. I don't doubt the history of this vehicle, but since it does not have a state title yet, it has to go through the process. Which is, go to county, they give referral to State Patrol, SP verify's VIN number (our...
It would be interesting to get a copy of that email. And see who is making that decision. It looks like you may be stuck in the VIN, Serial number morass.
I have been having a go around in WA on a 91 M923A2 and the vehicle inspector at the State Patrol told me that they don't register...
This is an interesting thread and while it only applies to NV, it goes to prove that things can get worse in licensing requirements. I am a WA MV owner and still needing to get provisional inspection from the WSP for Serial number identification on a 91 M923A2.
