Chief is right about the letter being a big hurdle. The only way of approaching that is to address the the vehicle fits the exemption in the 49 CFR 571.7(c) because it was built to the contract specifications of the military. Then that grants the vehicle the exemption from FMVSS. If the...

According to an interpretation on March 16, 1994. Military vehicles are exempt from 49 CFR 571.7(c) FMVSS for the life of the vehicle. Here is a link to the interpretation on the NHTSA website. https://isearch.nhtsa.gov/gm/94/nht94-1.78.html Now there might be a newer interpretation that...

Isn't that called the SS Express? LOL But in all seriousness. If things don't sound right, back out right away. If the deal is TOO good, stay away. Don't forget the couple that was killed when they went to pick up his dream Mustang? I want to add this in for others to look at and think...

I would suggest using CB radios for the convoy comms. Many have already mentioned they have CBs and they aren't super expensive if others wanted to get one. They will provide the best range and clarity for the length of the convoy. Though if you do want to run a CB, I highly suggest an...

Welcome from Tennessee!

Looking forward to coming out to Denton again. The better half put in her time off so hopefully we will both be there again this year with Mooch the pooch.

I'm planning on trying to get out there again this year. I really had a GREAT time last year and loved the beautiful setting.

Got back a little while ago. Had a great time and look forward to next year!

Got in yesterday afternoon and finished setting up this morning. If I got something you purchased just swing by.

I've got one on each of my trucks. lol What condition are you looking for? I've got one that's not perfect that I'm going to replace. It has some bondo in the front and the typical small split in the middle. If you interested it will be on one of the trucks I'm bringing down and you could...
