Both my 5 ton and M715 are registered as FMVs in Louisiana and have no plates. As @G744 stated, don't worry about them or the scales. The scales are for commercial vehicles, not us. Carry a copy of the pertinent Texas law with you in your registration/insurance paperwork. As far as being...

One thing to keep in mind: hydration hydration hydration! You'll be sweating a LOT during that drive. Be sure you bring plenty of water in the truck with you and be sure to replenish electrolytes (it's what plants crave!). If you get tired, pull over! If I'm home from offshore when you pass...

Worst case scenario, put it in gear and hit the starter to move it. **edit** When Iost the power wire to the distributor on my M715 that's how I loaded it onto and off of the trailer and into the shop to work on it. Don't do it all at once or you'll burn stuff up, but short runs will...

🤔 I **know** we had some great entries last month that *surely* could be nominated this month!

Congrats @whitgreen77 ! Great competition this month!

Thanks Thanks!

I was gifted a copy and it's been taking up space in a drawer. I sent it to him to enjoy.

I don't listen to them anyway!

PM sent.

I have a copy that was given to me. It's honestly not what you think... It's more of a "This is what I did" than a nut by nut restoration. It's good reading, but honestly I haven't cracked mine since initially glancing through it

Every year at a local National Cemetery, Wreaths Across America puts wreaths on the veterans Graves. Today was wreath retirement. My kid and I were there, and between all of the volunteers who showed up, we recoverd 2,300 wreaths in about 30 minutes. After filling up two dump trailers, there...

Thank you! Unless something jumps out at me, I'm going to call this one "done" and focus on the M37 now.

You should have a VIN stamped somewhere in the vehicle. Is it military? If it is and you have a data plate, post a pic. If there is no VIN stamped ANYWHERE, you may need to go the "rebuilt" trailer route. PMing you.

The final step today... took my paperwork to the special plates division in Baton Rouge and had her registered as a Historic Military Vehicle. Permanent registration and the VIN painted on her military style as the plates!

Ummm... the rules clearly state if it hasn't won THIS year, you can nominate any vehicle you have.

Lol.... saving it for later in the year.

Shhhh.... 😆😅😁

The kid learning to use a tap and die to "chase" threads...

Painted the bridge plate today... (And I know I'm not supposed to be showing "C", but it looks good!) And a pic of "the girls"

Looking at the bed, I am VERY fortunate! Just some surface rust to deal with...
