Let me say this, Sam is no kid and he did ALOT of work. That wrecker was a BIG MESS when he got it. I got to hand it to him for taking it on. Cant wait to see more pics!!!

That was Jack, the commander of the 64th. Sam ran the 64th wrecker when Jack was in command. They have been chatting on the phone for the last year.

You guys need to know that Sam is a Vietnam Veteran and he painted his M62 as the wrecker that he drove with the 64th Trans Co in 1966. My M151 is in the markings of his unit commanders Command jeep. Ive seen what he started with, let me say that he has given me great modivation to get my...

I am pretty proud on how she is turning out. Its sad that she keeps going on the back burner for three 5 tons and three deuces and two M151's and my love for the history of transportation units that served in the Vietnam war. Were getting there tho!

Bill, be jealous that I have a M37 if you did not get another one..........but let me say this.............It will never be in the class that yours was!!!!!!!

Mike, we have a 500 lb practice bomb that we are going to display with the truck. Its going to stick out of the dirt.............as a joke I told my dad that we need to put a egg timer inside it with a manaquin diffuzing it and another manaquin behind the truck with his fingers in his ears...

You still got my girl????? Commin up to the rally next weekend????

We have lots of equipment to be carried. EOD equipment, for diffuzing bombs, Rope block & tackle with Gin Pole pipes that screw together to lift ordinance out of the crater. 3 prong grapling hook and rope to drag ordinance away from a burning aircraft. It will also have 2 radios in the back...

Yes both the front and rear fenders are painted red. Dad was EOD in the USAF and his trucks had red fenders. I dont know if it was official per a military manual but they did it so thats what were doing. The truck is marked as it would have been in 1951 at Kimpo Air Base in Korea.

I pulled out my girl to get some sun and to continue its restoration. Were getting close!!!!

:beer: Done this with a couple of guns! It also works for the little stuff that goes with the 10 wheel flowerpot in the yard such as parts or canvas or the military gear and tents and stuff. If you want a good trick, bring home a 5 ton first, anything small after that is EASY!!! Then it become a...
