    Proper way to tie down cargo cover etc?

    You'll pay retail, but GMA Cover Corp. has those items. I've bought M105 camo vinyl covers from them and I love mine. As far as I know, I've never seen camo vinyl M105 cargo covers for sale surplus. The only thing to keep in mind is the M105 covers DO NOT have those nice rubberized ropes. It...

    Info needed on 1983 USAF M35a2c

    I hope David Doyle chimes in, but I believe that AM General was making trucks even though it was owned by LTV Corporation. So, to be correct, AM General made your truck. I've never heard of LTV Corporation making any deuces.

    WTD:M939 hood moved from Pittsburgh to the Aberdeen show

    I am buying an M939 series hood from a fellow SS member. Any chance any one could haul it to the show from Pittsburgh? I'd give you some gas money. Please let me know.

    Mark: I misunderstood your original post. Thanks for the clarification.

    Cargo cover needed

    I agree with MADDAWG...the vinyl is much better, but there is something to be said for the smell of new canvas. Plus, while it is no longer current, the canvas looks more "military" in my opinion. My brother, who was in the Army for over 20 years, used to walk into my garage and say it smelled...

    GMA Covers

    Mark, let me get this straight. They will sell you the troop seats? I thought the kit only came with the top and the bows. Are the troop seats fiberglass? Just curious.

    FREE TO A GOOD HOME: M35A2 bed and tailgate

    DOCTOR: The bed is still here, but the tailgate was snapped up by N3UKA. I am about 90 minutes from Aberdeen if that helps. I am between DC, Baltimore and Frederick almost equidistantly. The troop seats, head board and 4 bows are still available for $80. I think that price is pretty cheap...

    TOWBAR, and other stuff,

    I can't speak about the WI site, but I can say that, although they will work with you at my more local sites, they want your stuff out of there ASAP. Even if they agree to wait, I am not sure what that will do for you if you want to legally tow the second truck with the first. Count on at...

    TOWBAR, and other stuff,

    I had a new-in-the-crate medium towbar kit that was complete. Everything was still wrapped up in that waxy paper and it even had the manual. I must have been crazy, but I sold it for $350 at Ft. Lee a few years ago. Alas, another regret...

    FREE TO A GOOD HOME: M35A2 bed and tailgate

    If anyone needs a bed and a straight tailgate, I have one that is being taken off of a 1970 M35A2. The bed has had some neat rust repair and has some flakey paint...but is otherwise straight. The tailgate is very nice (it is straight but has some flakey paint, too). They are available to...

    dump truck

    BENDAWG: I am not sure what to suggest as far as doing your truck up is concerned. It is a really nice truck as it sits. I was only throwing it out there about what I got for my old M817 that was absolutely cherry. I was a fool to sell that truck. Now, if you can't use your truck easily for...

    dump truck

    Personally, I usually figure about $1,000-1,500 for a winch. Some guys don't want them no matter what the cost, though. I know that sounds crazy to most...it affects the angle of approach and departure if you are using the truck in severe off-road settings. My opinion is that $13,000 is too...

    looking for a later model usmc hmmwv

    There was a guy in Belgium that had a USMC HMMWV. It was a 2002 model with like 4K miles. Apparently, he had the release letter from the USMC releasing the truck to a British officer. The officer sold it to a guy in the UK who sold it to its current owner in Belgium. I am not sure about the...

    FOR SALE: Trailer electrical connection cable

    I will see if I can take some pics of it. If not, I'll bring it to Aberdeen in case anyone is interested. See you there, Mike!

    FOR SALE: Trailer electrical connection cable

    I should have added that this is the electrical connection for a trailer such as an M105. I think it will work on other trailers such as the M101 and possibly the 1/4 ton trailers, too. I am not positive about the latter.

    FOR SALE: Trailer electrical connection cable

    A couple of years ago, I bought a number of these "pigtails" at Aberdeen. Unfortunately, one of them is for an older trailer as evidenced by the metal couplings (instead of the rubber female coupler). If anyone has a trailer with the older style wiring harness, and you want a new electrical...
