Hey Skunk, you guys have an M818, black with orange on it?

 

[skinnedknuckles]

I think I'll have to plan on this for next year and bring a Jeep or two. Looks like fun This weekend is already booked with WW2 days reenactments down in Rockford, Ill.

Paul in Janesville, Wis

I'll chime in to clarify things. I have the flat black and orange M818. I'm actually a board member of a rally that is running around central Iowa the same day as the show - Midcoast Road Rally. I'll be there part of the afternoon but I'm on the fence on whether to take the 5 ton. I tried to renew my registration and found out that the DOT is cracking down on military vehicles. I have to call the DOT inspector and he will come out and check the basics like lights, brakes, horn, mufflers etc. I need to fix 4 or 5 things and I wouldn't have them done in time. The show is only 10 miles so I might chance it and take it anyway.

No inspection required, just ask for a DOT form 411187.

Ok, I met you last year. A bunch of my buddies and I stopped by after spotting the truck. They knew I was into the mil vehicles. Thats a nice place you got. Hope to see you again.

You should put up some info on this Midcoast Road Rally too....

 

[Bobert]

I missed this thread, I was there with a cucv on saturday.

You should check out the Mud Coast rally they do in the spring. Hope they do it again.

 

[Danger Ranger]

I have a ton of pics that I need to post, unfortunately, not many of them are mv's...

 

[Bobert]

I didn't see many. I figured there would be a coule deuces there like last year so I didn't take one.

The National guard guys taking the humvees on the obstacle course was cool.

 

[Danger Ranger]

****! That was you in the M1009??? I was gonna talk to you, but you disappeared! I had the green cherokee. A little more stock than most there. Yes, the Nat'l guard guys had fun I think. This is why you don't always want gov't vehicles....hahaha.

 

[Danger Ranger]

Here are some pics of the weekend, we'll start with the MVs of which there were few, and even fewer pics...scratch that, all I have are pics of wannabes...

 

[Danger Ranger]

Here are some of my Jeep, yes thats a Jeep, its called an XJ thankyouverymuch...

My buddy was taking pics, and by the end of the day he found his creativity and photo skills...

 

[Danger Ranger]

Here are some more. We definately need many more MVs next year. I talked to the older gentlemen who were a reenactment group. But they were just a display and were not active in the events. They had 2-3 WWII era Jeeps (GP, GPW, etc.) One was a Ford, other than that, all I know is they were all restored to some level or another.

 

[Bobert]

I probably saw you in the sea of jeeps. I was going to do the obstacles earlier but my cucv wouldnt start. It was just the starter relay again.

I know all about the XJs and MJs, a lot of my friends have them. I hang around a couple jeeps clubs (JOCCI) and (Square headlight jeep club) too.

Might be going to the Wheelin for Warriors event next weekend. Should be fun. Wheelers for Warriors

Check out this thread too. Someone is looking for you.
