Thank you for chiming in. Will probably meet there at 0900. We usually get on I or J street. Will keep you posted as it gets closer. JH1, clanky big or little green things?

you might also try polish from the auto parts store for cleaning up scuffs to your autos paint. I found a paste and with a soft cloth, usually takes just a few minutes of hand rubbing and they do clean up nice. But I have been stymied by a recent pair of taillight lenses, that had quite a bit...

They didn't go for the WW2 Vet Grand Marshall idea, because they are there to honor all veterans, except this is the 50th anniversary of their parade, so that is the most important thing for the day. The registration is in, so if you want to tag along with this one, let me know and jump in...

Sorry, not really any pics from Cabella's. The weather was nice and the only vehicle ended up being my M923. I lost my camera a couple months ago when it was stolen and haven't replaced it yet, and my phone does not take that good of pictures.

Make it how it works for you. They are going to start setting up at 0930, but I wanted to get there by at least 0830 so we could stake out our spot. PS, did wash the 923, but no pressure. :)

If you can come, bring your vehicles. The military backed out for this and another guy had to back out for family reasons, so am down to one vehicle. 0830 in the morning, or 0700 for breakfast at Shari's, exit 109 off I-5.

Just got a call so am down to one vehicle and a couple guys at Cabela's in the morning. Any other vehicles? I will bring the M923. Breakfast 0700 at Shari's just off exit 109.

I don't know about looking better. It is pretty hard to top a 7 million dollar Stryker. Probably budget cuts, but it is a Saturday, so the Army has the day off. I am not on the planning committee so don't know what the situation was. They just had a change of command at the base and maybe...

Coug, you going to the parade in Hoquim tomorrow? Think we will have 5 rigs there. I am going to Cabela's, looks like the Army won't be supporting the event this year, so whatever they have is what our crew brings.

Sounds like a deal. I will be there. See you in the morning. P

You are going to make me get up really early. Was probably going to hit Hawks Prairie McD's at 0730 but could do Shari's at exit 109 at 0700

Are you bringing a truck?

You missed a good event. There were historical displays from demolition to mess tent. Displays of Army, Marine Corp, and Air Corp with half a dozen WW2 vehicles. There were quite a number of newer M series vehicles courtesy of members of the Oregon Mil. Vehicle Collectors Club. For the...

Anyone going to turn out for this one? I will be there, but too many events this weekend. PS they feed us for this one. It is exit 111 off I-5 at Hawks Prairie.

Saturday 12 Sept. at Cabela's from 0900 to 1300. We should be in place by 0800. They furnish the hotdogs, chips, and drinks. So far I am it. Rest of my crew is going to Hoquim for a parade. Coug, maybe you should go to that one. Not sure the time but am sure it is published somewhere.

TB58, what sort of truck do you have? M54 or 800 series. They have a twist the horn button type and it is a bugger if it hasn't been off for awhile. the M923 is easy with 3 screws holding it on. If you have the twist type, be patient or you will break a leg off.

My truck is original, non restored, with painted crosses. At some point they did put a couple small vinyl crosses on the front of the over the cab piece, with ambulance stenciled in between. My truck is a 1977 with woodland camo paint job, but I think it came originally as straight green, as...

Ron, Keep an eye on us here. This is a good thread for keeping track of NW stuff. P

The side crosses and on top of the box are painted on, on my truck.

This is worth refreshing. Thank you for the tips in this thread. A friend came by today with his 923A1 and no horn. Ended up taking the horn button off, cleaning a lot of corrosion, and viola, the horn is working away again,. Cleaned the nut, spring, and push button. Horn works like a champ...
