Aberdeen 2017 (44th East Coast Rally held at Ripken Stadium May 11-13

[ZiggyO]

It’s getting close to the show and a few of us are planning on having a get together on Thursday evening as we did last year.
The menu will be a repeat of last year, steaks, baked potatoes and what not. Look forward to seeing those from last year and anyone else that would like to come by.
It would help if you could indicate if you are able to attend so we can plan accordingly.

I will be there manning the griddle for you as I did last year........ always a good time.......

Looking for 2 m1009 wheels and some m101 tarp bows if there decently priced. Takeing the m1009 to the show don't think the m101 going to make it got to much to do with it in so short of time.

Wheels or wheel and tire assemblies? I think I only have one loose rim but have several good mounted tires.

I'll be with Ed King in the usual spaces (R20-23?). If those aren't the correct spces I'll edit them.

My wife and I are moving from our farm in Central New York to our retirement place in Stokes County, NC by late summer so my son and I are finishing parting out 3 rusty but running M1009s and a civilian diesel Suburban. Most of the good sheet metal is gone but there are two good hoods, one green and one in gold commercial paint. There are a couple of good cargo caps including one with a nice sliding side window set-up. All the engines and transmissions are still here as are three transfer cases. There is a good brush guard or two and maybe one each front and rear bumpers. PM me for details and your wants, please.

[bachman502]

There is a possibility that I might be in the market for 4-5 twenty four bolt aluminum mrap wheels. They must be 24 bolt non ctis. Thank you.

 

[CARNAC]

I will have four USGI official issue Maredyne bolt on power steering kits for the M35A2 (or can be used on the A3 if your original system is inop) $2000 each kit. These are the last four I have.

Will have some very 'special items' that I was going to keep but I'm cashing out of the hobby. Bring deep pockets and your wife's secret stash of money and your kids piggy bank (I don't take first borns----have enough kids already).

I also have a very rare video game system. It's the Supernintendo Entertainment System (SNES) Marksmanship Arcade Combat Simulator (MACS). Official US Army rifle marksmanship training system. It has a M16 laser gun and the game cart and the SNES controller and TV. It is listed as a 10/10 for rarity. $7500. Extra M16 laser gun for $2500 if bought with game. $3000 if wanting the extra laser gun separate. System was tested within the last 30 days and both laser guns and full system are operational. Only bringing if I have a serious buyer.

I will probably be a Friday only.

So, I just learned that I have to be at three project sites this week that are at different ends of the state (NC)...
So, it looks like I will not be able to get to the rally this year (for the first time since 1990...).

This is the second event that I have had to miss this year due to work...
