Beauregard Intel

[DeuceIsLoose]

Hey All,

Went up to Beauregard yesterday to prep a truck I won a couple weeks ago for recovery. I thought I'd fill everyone in.

Lots of trucks in lots of different conditions. All had great tires and soft tops (except one hard top). About 25% didn't have batteries. About 75% didn't start but had batteries. Some were missing engine kill cables. Some missing accessory switches. Most of the winches looked like they'd need some work (but I think that's typical). But most looked like they'd roll just fine with a jump. Mine just needed brakes bled--everything else was great on it. There were a couple that had been totaled--but you'd be able to see that clearly from the GL pics.

Also there were about 5 5-ton dumps. Attached are some pics. I'm going up there to recover mine on Wednesday. Let me know if anyone needs a specific truck looked at.

Good Intel Work!!!! Did you happen to see any M939 series part trucks laying around?

 

[DeuceIsLoose]

No, not near the GL yard. They've got some on base, but it looks like they're still using them.

this may be weird for me to say... just trying to be funny

what did you do to tick off superman to hit those trucks!

jk

great intel!

That middle dump truck in the last photo sold a couple of weeks ago for about 9K. Much more than I would have paid - but then, I'm not looking for a dump.

Hey, DIL, how did you get access on a weekend? Just ask?

If it's still in the same place since I was last there, before Katrina, it's off in the woods. It took me sometime to find it the first time I went there.

Donnie,
I am about 15-20 minutes from Beauregard and am off Wednesday if you need some help. Email me kendelrio@hotmail.com and I'll shoot you my number. I am also "sort" of on the way back to B.R. If you develop any issues and need a landing strip.
