    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Their parking lot is not big, but there will be plenty of parking on Main St. by the time we get back there. And the pizza is decent.

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Usually the group I belong to goes to the Pizza place just east of where we will be staging on Main street. Must be about J or K street and Main. We already have those arrangements in place. If anyone needs me tomorrow afternoon or Saturday morning for questions, call 360 870 0706. I will be...

    Need M1101 / M1102 tarp bow dimensions

    We now have two dimensions, both 1" and 3/4", to add one more to the mix, my two original bows are 7/8" outside diameter. They also have a small crown in the top middle. I have seen a couple of tops on trailers at JBLM where the front bow is a bit shorter than the other bows, but am not sure...

    Hello Team 13 December 2014. Centralia, WA will be holding their 5th Annual Lighted Tractor (Christmas) Parade. Last year we had 7 vehicles. If anyone is interested in participating let me know. I will take care of registration for the event. We could meet at my house about 1300 - 1400 and...

    Need M1101 / M1102 tarp bow dimensions

    This was one of those, I wanted one and got 3 by accident. Need 6 top bows (I can make these but have not gotten around to it) and a top or two would be nice, but Kansas's point is well taken. It is getting to be a bugger to find M101 tops as well.

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    If anyone has detailed questions about this event, you can go on the City of Auburn website and look up Veterans Parade and they have a link for line up. We "Friends of Kilroy" will be the last unit on "H" ST SE. Except for the Abbott and Kurts Shop van. They will line up on Main street...

    My M886 Ambulance

    Saw one a few days ago on CL Seattle. From the pictures it looked like it was in pretty tough shape around the fenders and doors.

    Scott we will look forward to you being there. Bring a rig or come and ride along with someone. Just got new 6TL's in the 923 today, so am ready for the drive.

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Message came in from the City and our starting point will be on "H" St. I think due to the size of some of our vehicles, we better plan on being there by 0900. Registration opens at 0930 and I will take care of that. For a couple of the larger vehicles such as the Abbott and if Kurt brings his...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Did the Hella headlight conversion today. And ordered two new batteries. Should be in, in a day or two.

    Sounds like my truck batteries. Went to start tonight and it barely turned over. It did start, so have it on the charger. It is definitely time to think about some new batteries. If it doesn't start in the morning. Will call and let you know.

    Sounds like I may have to wear my M923 rain gear. The 1st Sgt said if it was raining he would bring the 923 instead of the CCKW.

    Does your receptacle cover have a slide lever to lock it open? That could be bent a bit and causing the function to be inhibited.

    Sounds good. Am looking forward to it and Auburn too.

    Oct 25 Saturday Washington Arms Collectors in Puyallup, WA

    Do they have any particular theme for the show. We are coming up on the 70th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. With the WW2 movie Fury that is out, WW2 might be a hot topic again for awhile.

    Oct 25 Saturday Washington Arms Collectors in Puyallup, WA

    I am planning on being there too. Probably the M923, but maybe the GPW depending on the weather. The 923 is a more comfortable ride for the 65 mile oneway trip. The FOWJ group is coming too. So far I have heard 3 vehicles, WW2's.

    Quillcene, WA Parade, 20 Sept. 2014

    Mission accomplished. It was a 190 mile round trip from my house. Beautiful day and 8 MPG in the 923. That was a new record high.

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Am still waiting on the exact street location. They are supposed to send a confirmation for this. Was asked if we will put together a Desert Storm tan vehicle group again. We did that about 3 or 4 years ago. Any one want to do that? I am thinking I will bring the tan 923. But if I am asked...
