Any takers out there? So far looks like we are around 6 - 8 vehicles. See you Saturday. If you have questions, give me a call. Looks like weather is iffy, so dress accordingly. Peter 360 870 0706 We are registered under the name of Friends of Willie and Joe.

This was the first time that they were lined up like this. The 53 M38A1, I have owned for 30 years, having bought it at auction from a rural fire department. Except for the bumper unit numbers, it is an original, non restored vehicle. All of the vehicles in that picture except the 42 are...

Here is most of the fleet, taken before the 4th of July this year.

1940 Volugrafo, 1942 GPW, 1950 M38 (not running), 1953 M38A1, 1967 M715, 1977 M886, 1984 M923, 1991 M923A2

Problem is that I have 6 other vehicles that run and it is more fun to drive them, than to work on them.

Wade, you are shaming me into putting the M38 back together. The body has been standing verticle in the carport for about 4 years now. Have a rolling frame, need wire harness, new tires, and finish body work and paint. Maybe this spring.

sorry, it was pouring rain and I left the camera at home, probably with the wallet that I couldn't locate that morning. Finally about half way through the day, my wife called and told me that I had left my wallet behind. I tore the house apart for an hour, not finding it. She had picked it up...

Wanted to kick this one back up. It is approaching fast. So far looks like about 6 rigs are showing up. Jump in and let me know. Thank you.

Mission accomplished. Action was a bit slow, but got in some good conversation and time with old friends. Had the M886 as our sole MV for this event.

You are a very fortunate man. If I put my jeep hood on the dining room table, I wouldn't have to worry about turkey, probably ever again. Happy Thanksgiving.

Keep me in mind for this Scott. I don't like to do Sundays, but may make an exception for this. P

I am sure that we would. Usually what happens is that we hang back, so that people that have tables inside, can get their stuff carried into the building, then about 0900 or so, the front lot is cleared and we move the MV's in for display. I will let them know that we have a few and go from...

Figured this one should get kicked back up. Anyone interested? Let me know and I will contact them about reserving our parking at the front of the building. See you Saturday.

Auburn Vets Parade AAR Weather was a big factor today, for low turnout from our troops. It was still a nice event and I was able to host a dry seat for a WW2 Veteran. We met Joe today with an M51, who saw the event here on Steel Soldiers. So we had the M923, M923A1, and M51. It was still a...

Big Block, that looks like a great use for the truck and your weather was sure a lot better than ours. It rained like heck, so we got to host WW2, 14 FA Veteran Jim Grimes. He told me that he drove a 2 1/2 ton off an LST onto Omaha beach, about a month after D-Day and he also took part in...

Please note we are now unit 160, Friends of Kilroy, still on H street. I am thinking we should be there by 0900. Any other takers? Yes it may rain. If you get lost or have questions, give me a call. Peter 360 870 0706. If you have a tan vehicle, please bring it. My marching troops are...

Looks like good progress. What type or brand of paint are you using?

will see where it goes with them first. Don't want to muddy the waters too much, may have to deal with him again.

No, unfortunately not. The man bought it in CA, drove it home and passed away about 3 years ago. And the paperwork is AWOL. So was applying under the lost title part of the code. It will probably work out, but looks like I will have to work for it.

Took the M923A2 (totally stock) in today for a WSP inspection for licensing purposes. The guy wouldn't even look at the Serial number. He told me that they don't license military vehicles in WA. Anyone else run across this issue? I suggested that maybe he was confusing this issue with some...
