Recovery: M1010

[amgeneral72]

Just woke up at the hotel. About to grab some breakfast and head over to the Mississippi surplus property yard to grab my first 84 m1010.

It’s currently 14 degrees.

Wish is luck everyone.

I'll trade your temp for mine. Car said -18 on the way in this morning.

And.....good luck.

Thanks Steve

You know us Southern people don’t do cold well.

Hopefully this is just gonna be a quick winch up and go.

PS: Emily sends you a virtual hug.

Best of luck!

Sorry I missed both of you at the GA Rally.

Actually I missed her, not so much you.

Loaded up and hitting the road

Good grief. Glad all is going well Drew. Anything good or stripped in the back? We woke up to 4° but it's 14 already. Gonna be another hot one.

The bambalance looks pretty dry and solid. Let's hope the back wasn't subject to an abortion.

**** I was biding on that I could of gone to 3,000 for it but I let you have it for 1,700 i figured xmass was more important then another project restoration cucv.

Made it back safe and sound.



Took about 7 hours. Had to stop once for fuel .
luckily no issues.

Now time to start working on next project.

 

[Recovry4x4]

Well, is it tan yet?

 

[amgeneral72]

No

Unfortunately its going to need a bit more work before I'm at that point.

Looks like a starter and flywheel for sure. A/C compressor and alternator are gone as well as the radiator. They cut the oil cooler lines to get out. Very sad.

I have all the parts and another complete running engine so I'm debating on just swapping it out.

Hurray more work

 

[Recovry4x4]

Yikes. At least it has a nice body.

Very cool. What are you going to do with it?
