    What does this data plate say?

    Your truck was overhauled on 10/2000. Two different MWOs were applied to the truck. You can GOOGLE the MWO numbers to find out what was done. There is no mileage listed.

    M1151A1 Interior Roof Adhesive Removal (or Not)?

    I would remove what is there or it might not adhere for long, and especially if the truck sits in the sun.

    GP Inspection Reports, Buy with confidence or Buyer Beware? What is your experience?

    I think the information they provide is generally good and forthright, but I still adhere to caveat emptor. With that said, NOTHING beats an in-person inspection. I, too, most often cannot inspect in-person. I think you need to understand that the pictures and description are provided to give...

    CARC Sub over faded CARC

    I, too, have used RAPCO spray cans and it worked great. I once repainted an entire M35A2 and also an M105A2. I ended up having the M35A2 re-CARCed, but the trailer looked great seven years later.

    M-60A1 main battle tank from "project" to running and registered

    That 4-color MERDC camo is my favorite. Great job on the paint, too!

    M-60A1 main battle tank from "project" to running and registered

    Very impressive work on a beautiful vehicle. I dreamt of trying to buy the M60A1 that came up for sale in TX a few years back, but I came up a couple (hundred) thousand short.

    CUCV Markings in Army Service in Germany in the late 80s

    While this is not on topic, he also had a lot of pictures of an ACE in action as he was an engineer. Very cool vehicle!

    CUCV Markings in Army Service in Germany in the late 80s

    My brother was in the Army from 1982 until the early 2000s. During that time, he was never stationed in Germany, but he did go over there a few times. During one of his trips near Munich in the mid-80s (I saw one pic of the HOFBRAUHAUS), he took a bunch of pictures of M880s, M818s, M35s, and...

    M-50 Sherman alive again

    Awesome tank, and awesome tank collection! I'd love to see pics and videos of all of them, but particularly the M60A1.

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    Come to think of it, maybe BLK HMMWV already stated it.

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    I think that mounting point was where the TOW launcher was stored when in transit. As I said, "I think" this is how it worked. I hope someone who served can confirm this.

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    I used to have an M1045 with that same TOW mounting point, as well as the missile racks (my truck also had the TOW wiring harness hung off a mounting point on the B-pillar). The racks took up the entire bed beneath the rear hatch.

    An NOS hard top goes for around $2K...slightly less if you are fortunate.

    Hmmmmm

    There is another thread on this same topic. Maybe one of the mods can combine them.

    Shawano County, Wisconsin Police Interaction With Belligerent Military Truck Driver!

    Not that it matters, but I was curious what type of truck he was driving. Apparently, he was driving either an M923 or M925 with super singles. I could not tell from the pic if it was an A1 or A2. One newspaper story (not the one I mentioned above) said he was driving a "deuce and a half"...

    Official Hagerstown MD May 12-14 2022 sell/trade/wanted list

    Mike, contact Dave Olchak. He had lightbars a while back. I just don't know if he still has them. I don't remember the colors he had, but I believe he might have had multiple colors (e.g., yellow, blue, red).
