I bought this >>> My intent was to keep the pintle hitch and simply add a 2” receiver like this example (which I saw posted here by another member) >> However, I’m stuck here >> The 2” receiver is made with 1/2” steel plate. With that in place, the nut no longer goes all the way on the...

Well… I purchased a pack of mules… and the adventure starts now. My brother-in-law and I are hitting the road and driving from Montgomery, Texas to Southern California where we’ll meet @WillWagner and take delivery of three mules! There are two complete vehicles and one parts truck. I’ll post...

I want to thank @fuzzytoaster and the team at War Fox Equipment for the amazing work they did on this new-to-me M1097R1. I’m extremely pleased to own this truck and showcase their hard work. While I’ve known Mr. Fuzzytoaster for some time, this was the first vehicle I’ve purchased from him...

It’s that time of year again! We are having a Toys for Tots fill the truck event in Conroe, Texas on October 1st. I can’t wait to see how many new toys we can get in the back of a M35A2! What TFT events do you have planned this year?

@texas30cal and I are traveling to the 2022 Southeast Military Vehicle Rally in Tennessee. We’ll leave the Houston area on October 5. Let me know if I can help transport goodies between Houston and the Rally. With that said, I do have several constraints, mainly weight and time. I plan to pull...

The darnedest thing happened. This followed me home. It sounds like a cliche, but she actually ran when parked over 3 years ago. My plan is to get her running again for parades and static displays. We’ll see how the work/restoration continues from there.

I want to say thank you to @unitedstatesoffreight for getting my new-to-me truck moved half way across the country. Nick was great to work with. He is very professional and his communication is excellent. I will likely be a repeat customer and recommend him to anyone needing transportation...

I owned an Alvis Stalwart between 2005 and 2007 and regret selling it. I was rather excited when the opportunity arose to acquire another one! My 'new' Stolly arrived last week. The truck is a 1971 REME Fitters Mk 2 FV624 (Chassis No. STAL II 876, Vehicle No. 20ET33). According to Wikipedia...

I was told that these uprights and bows were for a Deuce when I acquired them. But after trying them yesterday, I now think otherwise. What are these uprights and bows intended for? The uprights are metal and measure 55” from the bottom to the bow. This causes the cargo cover to sit about 12”...

I’m making a run to Alexandria, LA and back on Sunday, August 8th and am happy to haul things in either direction. Let me know if your goodies need a ride on the SS Express.

I'm planning to visit Mr. @fuzzytoaster early next week (probably Monday, May 17). Does anyone have anything that needs a ride from the Houston area to DFW or vice versa?

Unfortunately, we are not having the annual rally in College Station, Texas in March 2021. With that said, the Museum of the American GI is holding their annual Living History Weekend on March 27 and 28. There is more information about the Museum here: Living History Weekend – Museum of the...
