Select Vehicles on Hold GL WHAT?

[Chief_919]

There are two M35A2's at San Antonio. 7476 7100 and 7101 Both have parts missing, but both have the old speedos. Whats up?

I see a 109 van at Richmond as well, mayb they are starting to let some loose again.

Did anyone notice the larg number of trucks setting in the back ground of some of the newer listings / pictures on GL ? When will the flood gates open LOL

Just because they are in the pictures does not mean they are GL trucks. GL sites are on DRMS lots so often the trucks are still in the hands of DMRS and may get sold prior to ever hitting GL.

 

[greenjeepster]

we pickup these trucks over a month ago and yes all vin # where verify .

You sold them before you had titles? Oh you are screwed.

I think the spedo story is a bunch of crap. My deuce is on the list but it has been certified to contain no radioactive material. the sticker is right on the windshield.
I received this e-mail AFTER I had allready picked up my truck. They are clueless.

"Thank you for your e-mail.

No additional information is currently available for the vehicles in question. However, we anticipate an update shortly and will notify you accordingly via e-mail.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in this matter.

Sincerely,

Of course, there must be a reason they scanned, and then certified your deuce as having no radioactive material.

Perhaps they know that some radioactive instruments were installed in deuces that were at a certain depot, but they don't know which ones?

Gauges are the problem

Hi all, my first post.

The gauges are the problem. Radium-226 was used on the faces and pointers on some of the older gauges. It was also used on older luminous dial watches.

The gov't is working on a fix.

An easy way to tell if your gauges or watches contain a radium emitter, is to place it in a closed container out of the sun for a day or two. If it still glows in the dark, it contains Ra226. Also, a radiac meter will work, but most of us don't have access to one.

Go Army!

I am sorry. I will not ref. auctions again.
I was under the impression that it met the guidelines

as we are trying to determine if the speedos are the problem or not. Again i am sorry and will not do this again.

I just got word from Govliquidation that both my EUC's were cleared today and I now have a paid in full invoice but my trucks are on the hold list. No word about when it will be resolved. Any ideas how long it will take to release the trucks on hold?

 

[greenjeepster]

What site is holding them?

As far as anybody can tell there is no end in site for the hold. They have to physically inspect 474 trucks.

I have 2 in Frankfort Ky, and one in San Antonio.

My truck is on the list. My EUC came through after the Hold. Went and picked it up yesterday. No questions asked.

 

[Heavysteven]

Marcus is allowing pickups at Frankfort with paid in full invoices still. Another fellow there Jay kept on asking me if I had my paid in full invoice. I got the impression they want these trucks off the base ASAP. I know the MPs want them gone....

 

[nhdiesel]

I was under the impression that as long as you have the invoice, you can pick up your truck. Keep in mind the 14-day limit...I was told that still applies.

I did get my paid in full invoice a couple of days ago. I called the govliquidation office in San Antonio where one of my trucks is. They said to me, "Bring your paid in full invoice and come get your truck" I asked about the "Hold" they said "we have an open door policy, just bring your paid invoice and come get your truck". I also have 2 trucks in Frankfort, KY. I tried calling that office but just got and answering machine and they have not returned my call yet.

Does anyone know what it might cost to ship two Dueces from Frankfort Ky to Driftwood, Texas? 78619. And can you recommend a company?

 

[greenjeepster]

Put them on freight quote and let the companies compete for the haul. U-ship also works. It would be much cheaper to pick them up yourself though. I could possibly find an extra driver and drive them down for a reasonable amount of money, but it would probably be a few weeks before I could do it.

I'm unemployed right now and would volunteer to drive one if all expenses were covered. I don't need to make money...I'd do it for the trip.

Time isn't really a problem for me except for the time limit to remove them from the govliquidation yard. I think I could find the time to move them if I could store one there for a while. Move one and come back for the other one a a few weeks. Another thing I've been wondering, what is the cost to drive them VS have them hauled? People are telling me they get 7.5 miles to the gallon. Its a 1100 mile trip. If Diesel is $4 a gallon, thats over 1100 just for fuel on the return for 2 trucks. Then there is the cost to get myself there as well as facing the potential for breakdowns while coming home.

Not sure how I'm going to do this yet. Right now, I'm just trying to weigh all my options.
