    I feel odd driving my M886

    OK guys, here's the deal. I really like my Ambulance, but I get odd looks when I drive it. I don't have a problem with that usually but it's starting to get to me. When people look at the deuce or 5 ton I look back with that "yea baby, you wish you where driving this" but I don't feel that way...

    Many M880 questions from a new owner

    As for the black out light switch, I have to switch mine to one of the positions (I can't remember which position) for the regular lights to work. Some of the lights work all the time, but all the lights didn't work until I switched it to that position. The other day my left front brake...

    Steel Soldiers MVPA Convention Award

    As a person who can't remember a name, I have to ask, is Lamar the guy I met at Aberdeen years ago that drove a deuce (with his wife) that had been heavily modified (for comfort purposes). I think the back was a nice cozy sleeping area and the cab had been insulated and so forth. I think I met...

    2009 GA Rally-trader on line

    More on the mule Just got off the phone with cousin. I am also uploading pictures of the two engines. It is supposed to be enough stuff there to make a complete engine except for the starter and maybe a magneto. You look the pictures over and see for your self. If anybody wants to come look...

    2009 GA Rally-trader on line

    Sorry, but I have been real busy. In this economy, anyone in construction like myself is not going to complain about being busy, but I can't seem to get caught up. At any rate I just got back from an all day beach trip for the little girl that I didn't have time for, but she's only 5 once...

    2009 GA Rally-trader on line

    I thought I saw a thread on stuff for sale at the Georgia rally, but I can't find one so I am starting one. If there is one , please move me to it. I just wanted to put a few pictures of the mule that is for sale on here. It is not mine and I will have to find out what my cousin wants to do with...

    Where are you staying for the 09 GA Rally

    I seem to remember seeing something but if you can't find it, I know I can't. I'll look any way. It may not have been posted in a very obvious forum.

    Where are you staying for the 09 GA Rally

    Where are you staying for the 09 GA Rally

    This is probably a bad place to post this I have a mule in the back yard that belongs to my cousin that he want's to sell. It's a basket case but might have some good parts. I think I should take some pictures of it and post them on the thread about parts that can be brought to the rally. Any of...

    Unloading a deuce, no animals where harmed.

    I did it because it was just good old fashion fun and easy. Besideds, that what those little trees are for. The truck also had no engine.

    Where are you staying for the 09 GA Rally

    Well I broke down this morning and "reserved" the brown roof inn I think. I got a automated email saying they received the request at least. That sure will simplify life with my little city girls along. It looks like the cabin is just a bed and bath, no heat but a DVD player. Like they say on...

    Hey half track guys

    Well here's the story. I may never have the money to put a running stock engine and drive train in this half track. I plan to put an engine and trans in it and either hook it directly to the real axle or install a transfer case and possibly connect the front axle. If the axles are completely...

    Hey half track guys

    Quick question. Are the two axles in my M15A1 half track geared the same. In other words does the transfer case turn the rear axle for the tracks once for every turn for the front, wheeled axle. I have no drive train and was thinking about putting in something to make the front axle turn. I have...

    To all Members.

    I for one have had my trucks in my avatar before and I changed to one that I thought would tell a little about me that you would not know otherwise. I can post BIG pictures of my trucks in the photo section or in a thread about the trucks or events I have attended. If the avatar is not...

    Official '09 SS Ga. Rally Info thread

    Well it looks like we may be trailering the M886 and sleeping in a tent for one night. My wife is not a fan of riding in a MV for a couple of hours so we will likely drive the F350 crew cab. She hates the smell of canvas so it might not be a GP small either. I will work on that. Cabin is out...

    Steel Soldiers MVPA Convention Award

    Oh, here we go, a mouse glued to the top of a deuce piston. I have an old HP wireless mouse right here in front of me :wink:. But wait, there's more, Come up with a list of things you can ask the particapants. Things like: Did you order parts on line? Did you find your vehicle on line...

    Steel Soldiers MVPA Convention Award

    I have a couple of thoughts. First off, I would suggest the award and the criteria should reflect a computer or the internet in some way. It seems to me that is the most we all have in common and therefore our trademark to a large degree. You might consider a plaque with a engraving of a common...

    Attention!! Please use caution when driving vehicles home from auction!

    I am so glad Chris posted this. I have thought it but I didn't feel it was my place to bring it up. I agree 100%. Some of the guys on here take way too many chances. If you don't think so, call the state troopers and get them to smoke over what ever your moving and see what they think about it...

    Official '09 SS Ga. Rally Info thread

    Well I have a couple of options now. I have invited my wife to come along since you guys are a nice clean bunch of folks and if she drives her car I can drive the M813 or a bob deuce (which ever I haven't sold). If it's just me and Logan we will be in the M886 in the primitive area or if my wife...

    Say goodbye to ol' yeller

    I would be interested to know if there is any laws against the big red cross on the side, since I have one. I couldn't imagine there being anything like that but the blue light, yes. The light would allow you to impersonate a law enforcement officer but the cross wouldn't allow you to do...
