Well I am sorry if I caused a fuss, I was planning on spending some of my Jeep bonanza money to buy it since it was only eighty miles away. But after I spent two hours in the pouring rain going over the truck and running batteries and finally trying to slave it off I thought it would be the...
I will go out in a couple of weeks after we have a hard frost to cut it out of the brambles, but sitting on the ground and full of rotting fence post, I don't hold out much hope of it being intact. I will post photos next visit.

PS: The gasser has single 11X20s on it!
Just got back from GL to have a look at the 813. Super truck except the engine is locked up tight as a drum, nothing but a clunk from the starter, so if you are bidding on it keep in mind it is going to need a motor!!!!!

I need a bed for a M35a2c I have that is bedless. I found a deuce gasser on a chicken farm with a honey dew tank on it, so I had to ask if he still had the original bed for it. And to my surprise he did! Unfortunately it has been sitting on the ground since 1984 full of fence post and...
I had the same bait and switch deal happen to me over a Broom Handle Mauser pistol, the pistol I received had no resemblance to the pistol described or shown. It took the threat of a cross country drive to discuss the problem face to face for them to refund my money!

PS: Super looking...
Armada, I would like the used one to replace the filter I pulled out of my scrap engine, I have copied all the info. from the thread you started last year, also Neil H. is sending me his parts contact and a copy of the civi.manual he has. I am interested in the electronic compression bypass, I...
I got a couple of the small 3kw Gen set with a one cylinder Robin diesel engine. Each had the oil drain plug and oil filter/screen missing. If anyone has a scrap Robin Diesel engine laying around I would like to buy the plug and filter from it! I am looking for new parts but some used spares...
My 818 tried that last week as I was trying to start it, maybe 30 minutes into the ordeal, I pulled the emergency stop as it started to rev! Fuel problems?

Cost here is $65 per hour, I had a M37 frame down to the metal for $140, the POR 15 really soaked into the semi rough finish on the frame, well worth the cost.

Frodo:
I was bidding on 4-5 of them trying to get one, but all the ones I bid on were pushed past the auction end time and you what happens then. It looks like most sold for between 5-8 hundred dollars. I should have just bitten the bullet, cause the price was a steal! But then I would be...
I would like to come but that's about an eight hour drive one way! Maybe next year when my M715 is up and running, I can trailer it. Take a lot of photos!
James G.
The trailer is located about 130 miles away at my cabin, M127 is what GL had on the Sale lot, I guess I should have a look at the data plate, the trailer is in great shape and the 818 pulls it like it isn't there!
James
How goes it Jason? i intend building a small deck just outside the trailers doors so I can set down really heavy stuff with the backhoe. Not too elaborate since it "should" be just for a few months.
James
I am going to use my new M127 trailer as for parts storage until I can get my shop built. Has anyone used a military box trailer for storage? Should it be a level as possible or should there be a tilt one way or the other to help with drainage off the top of the trailer? I don't think having...
I have new fuel lines in the works for the 818, I just run out of time each week, I am going to have to move it up on the priority list. It is a super truck and drives well, but this truck has been a challenge from the beginning, the oil photo is from picking it up at Hooks, took four visits to...
My 818 accelerates fine meaning it is pretty responsive, however whenever I let off the accelerator there is a lag with the engine responding, not long but noticeable, the power falls off but not as quickly as I would think it would, not like any of my mulitfuel engines, is this normal for this...
