I picked up a new A2

She is a little rough

Looks like you have a project ahead of you. Congrats on the new rig and the save. Let the fun begin.

Just need a milk crate to sit on and I will be drivin this bad boy, unless Warthog comes and buys it.

According to the tag it's a M-825 not just an A-2. Here's a link from olive drab. http://olive-drab.com/idphoto/id_photos_m825rr.php

I might just take you up on that.

I think this one was a standard AMG A2 built in 1973 then modified to TOW Jeep in 1974, then later in its life back to A2 config, but you are right it was a TOW jeep at one time.

Man.... You have totally gone over to the dark side. I may not be able to associate with you at any more events.

Great find!!! Think you'll have it running with the milk crate for the convoy in May?

Can't make the convoy this year my son is getting married that day, the household 6 done put the word down that I am not even to think about skippin out. May just cut holes in the floorboard and turn it into a Flintstone mutt, if so it should be ready by Petit Jean time.

At least I ain't got no WWII jeep......yet!

Exactly!!! I do like the Flintstone idea. Yabba dabba do!!!!!!!!

I can understand not missing the son getting married. Well you will be missed at the convoy. I look forward to seeing you at Petit Jean, maybe we can arrange some decent get together between now and then that works into your schedule.

Why do the squirrels like to store their nuts on the exauhst manifold? Nothing like getting your mutt out from under covers and taking it for it's first run of spring only to have the smell or achorns rosting as you drive. Don't ask how I know this.....
