FYI, the field we are renting will not open until tomorrow. Anyone showing up tonight expecting primitive camping at the site will have to go to the campgrounds. You can not drop anything off at the rally field. Also, the general store employees do not know at which hour the gate will be...

Just checked into hotel, be there in 30

20 years ago you could walk into any junk yard and leave with coupe Deville horns for $5. Would have to really dig for them know. Caddys had their own unique (if not arrogant) sound. Hated them then, would love a pair right now.

I think we are going to revise our arrival date to Wednesday. The field isn't ours till Thursday so I figure why push things.

Update on goods. The M416 is sold so it won't be making the trip. I'll have 3 command post tents with me. There is also 2 NOS command post bags with new vinyl in them, no NOS pole sets. Will try to bring it all. Let's help Mia out, buy some of Microjeeps stuff.

Folks, post up your estimated date and arrival time. Jay and I will be leaving home sometime Tuesday. We are about 3 hours away. As time gets closer, I can make a better guesstimate.

I just packed a bunch of stuff in it for the trip. It will be there.

For the CUCV folk. It looks like my son would rather keep the SM465 in the contact truck so I'm going to test the market here. I have an early dodge NV4500. This one came behind a 360 gasser so it has the smaller 1-1/8 10 spline input shaft and 27 spline input. 5th gear was tight but I added...

Hey Bobby, found 2 stretchers and 2 mermites at Mike's shop. Interested? Also have what I think is an MBU. It's packed.

Hey Bobby, do you want more stretchers? There are 2 here. What about mermites?

Pics of 416

I have an M416 from the Microjeep collection. Refurbished by Papabears crew years back. Always garaged, $1500. Another item is a command post tents with walls and another without (or maybe with) walls. $450 and $350 respectively (unless I find walls. 2 surplus aluminum cots in aftermarket...

Put me in Coach.

Wow, if I follow this route I'll never drive a foot of interstate. Might try it.

Gang, I'll be going through the Microjeep collection soon looking for stuff to bring up to help Mia along. He has a few command post tents, M416 trailer, maybe his custom mule trailer that he built for behind the M1009. It's based off of an M116A3, it's very nice. There is so much to go...

Yeah, something is inflated.....besides my head.

Whatever you do, take some detailed pics of the decals on the doors. 67beast would love to have that pic to reproduce those decals, even if he just gets the art. Post it here please if possible. I'll PM Dave and have him come take a look.

Few more from another video.

A few screen grabs from a video I found. Not good lighting but a great parade. M1009 is mine, M49A2C is Jonathan's (son)

Well, the Blairsville parade was probably the biggest yet. Robert, it was nice to meet you. Steelsoldiers was represented by Bobweb, myself and recovry4x4jr. All went quite well. I took zero pics but I know others did so I'll have to get them.
