WM, I agree, NOS tanks should be desirable. I am not trying to bust your b****. Really, I am not. I think these posts are helpful. Heck, the subject header says it all. If you don't want to read the thread because you are not looking for the item listed, don't read it. I wish they would...

WM, I strongly believe that we should be able to post for sale ads. Heck, I have done it previously. I am just curious why some get pulled and some make it through. MIKE MANGUS, any comments?

I swear I am cool with this type of post, but I am unclear why a previous post of mine trying to sell something for a fellow SSer down on his luck gets pulled, and this post doesn't. MIKE MANGUS, any comments?

Negotiated sale? It would not surprise me. They have done them before.

Very funny, Matt!:-D

I sure hope not. I suspect, before long, there will be someone who dreams of bobbing an M939 series. I know that guy exists...it is just a matter of time... Why not bob a HEMTT?!?!

Has anyone confirmed that you can buy a truck through a DRMO overseas?

No 5 ton truck is designed to move that kind of weight. Will it move it...possibly. Should you try it...no. Would I like to watch from a safe distance...yes.

That is the point. It is not necessarily the site personnel, although I have dealt with some rude a-holes. Most of the people you deal with on the ground are decent hard-working folks. However, their willingness to work with you cannot overcome the ramming you WILL take if you deal with HQ...

I have been told, but am not sure, that they are no longer selling trucks overseas. I was told that they are being scrapped. As I said, I am not sure...only been told this. Contact them to make sure.

I have a lot of complaints about GL and have posted about them previously. They range from having over $1,200 of parts stolen off a truck while it was in their possession (after I won it)...to a truck being damaged while in their possession...to rudeness...to GL incorrectly charging me tax on...

The motor in the wrecker is toast. It has been sitting for Lord knows how long with the valve cover removed. I have decided to find another motor. I have located a motor that came out of a freshly re-furbed truck with fewer than 100 miles on it that was rolled off of a flat-bed trailer. That...

In fact, that IS one of the NOS vices that I had. Kenny, you are very observant...the truck is currently sitting at a friend's place in FL!

I am attaching a few photos of the next truck that will be put back together. The truck mainly needs a motor and some small parts (windshields, some switches, a gauge, a few air lines, air dryer, CTIS parts, etc.). What is there is mint, though! The motor is going to set me back a few bucks. I...

Here are my suggestions on what to bring: *15W40 oil (not 20W50) *a breaker bar and lug wrench *at least a four ton bottle jack *insurance if you can get it *a set of alternator belts (without the alternator belts, you lost the water pump) *a few gallons of water for the radiator just in case...

Great job, Mike! You've got a really nice truck there.

If you are going for performance, then you don't want a bobbed deuce or 5 ton. Buy a CUCV, preferably an M1028. Then, add a lift kit and some larger tires. I suggest adding an aftermarket transmission cooler and possibly a banks turbo kit.

An aftermarket replacement part # for which item? The vise? The primer pump drain petcock? If it is the former, they are rare, but can be found. I just sold an NOS vice on this list, but it is gone now.

I understand that it is OK to post info about an item that is on ebay, but I don't understand why you can't post info about an item that you have for sale that is NOT on ebay. The only difference is one is on ebay and one is not. How does listing an item on ebay change something? Is it...

Marti, great job. The truck looks great.
