:jumpin::jumpin::jumpin:, lol, I could use the help cause I think I'm going to do some digging to get it figured out. Oh, don't worry about the rain, 'cause it's darn cold out there!

Still trying to get the clutch working. The fork doesn't move at all when the pedal is depressed. Getting all the panels off is proving to be a PITA. The massive heater is in the way but I'm not sure how to get it out. Fun, fun, fun. I'm about ready to push it out of the way. I gotta get the...

Yes, the smoke is slowly getting under control. The initial roughness is almost over. I'm still tweaking the carb. I wonder if it was common practice to put Motorcraft Carbs on Chrysler engines?

Well, it's mostly working, I can keep it running. Now, the clutch isn't working. I guess tomorrow I get to explore underneath.

10-ish. 6 deuces, a 5 ton M52, 1944 1 1/2 ton Chevy, M1009, M37. A couple shelters... I'm forgetting something..... now i remember, a XM105E3, a M101A1 and a shelter carrier.

Laramie county with a bunch of trucks.

It is alive!!! She's smoking like a coal fired freight train but she runs!!! Still need to check the cooling system but the fuel is working (from a small temporary gas tank).

Got the truck running! Yippee, yahoo!!! Now that that's out of my system... Manual choke cable had more wiggles than a belly dancer. Fortunately I have a brand new one. The automatic choke is fubared (I should have said that firstly). The wiring under the dash looks like one of those garter...

Climb underneath and look for your drive shafts. A really important one is the short shaft without which a lot of nothing occurs. Nice rig! I bought mine from a rural fire station. It's a M52A2 turned into a tanker. I dumped the water tank and have slowly been returning it to stock. Good luck!

Looks like it was manufactured from 1957 thru 1967. It uses Champion RJ12YC. Still looking for a replacement fuel pump, tune up kit, probably water pump and maybe new belts.

Eureka I have found it! The number is on the front of the engine on the passenger side just below the head in really big numbers. According to the net source I found, it's number is 2468230, which indicates the motor is a 318 of the A family of MOPAR engines. Now to find the year codes so's I...

Bolts are down the middle of the valve covers.

I'm no barracks lawyer but slinging mud without documented, public knowledge that has been vetted is looking for a law suit. I have been and will continue being a customer of Eastern and have been satisfied with their service. I shop around for part, price and condition. I buy the best deal I...

I've got to dig into the truck and get more pics.

thank you! The distributor is on the back. Does that indicate it's 318 or something smaller?

That's one good looking truck! The .50 mounts are a work in progress. Since I open the truck bed for people, mostly kids, I set mine to maximize internal space. As time and money allow, I'll continue modifying them till I get them just right. As for the rear mount, I plan on buying one more...

Found my siren!!! It's a 6 volt, which I'll have to figure out how to power. War Wagon is still 24 volt.

Update: I spent the afternoon playing in the engine compartment and the battery box. The truck was converted to 12 volt. At first, the starter was disinclined to perform correctly. After repeated failed attempts for the starter to work, it fixed itself. The engine turns over nicely and I can get...

Jim, I PM'ed the seller for prices. It'd be pretty awesome if this worked. I'll let you know asap.

I'd like to get a hold of the engine/tranny but I live in SE Wyoming, got no way of getting them here.
