I'm be there. I'm still hunting two surplus wood wheel chocks to match the two I got at Findlay. Also I'm in the market for an M151A2. Mechanic issues are not a problem. Looking to avoid body work.

The significant other told me she likes the plastic milsurp 5 gal water can for taking water to the horses in the field, so I will be looking for some of those. I'm looking for the following if anyone has these items sitting on a shelf: - 45mm Brixia, 50mm Russian, 60mm, and 81mm inert mortar...

I'll be there Friday. I'm looking for the following if anyone has these items sitting on a shelf: - 45mm Brixia, 50mm Russian, 60mm, and 81mm inert mortar projectiles, parts, and tools - Projectiles, brass cases, optics, and other accessories for the US WWII 3 Inch M5 anti-tank gun Optics for...

Here's some photos of my 63 CJ5 I made into an M38A1. I have a set of correct 16" wheels ready to go once these tires wear out.

Does anyone know if attendees (not a vendor) can camp on site?

Well worth the 2.5 hour drive for me. I think there were more vendors than last year. The militaria/inert ordnance/gun parts vendors were great. Some Knob Creek vibes. Prices were very reasonable. I brought along another gun and gear collector who has never been to a military vehicle rally/swap...

I at least found the number of the operator TM I am hunting. TM-5-2410-229-12 Edit. Found it: https://www.google.com/books/edition/Operator_and_Organizational_Maintenance/4Pchm4l9u5IC?hl=en&gbpv=0 Also found this interesting FM on air dropping this dozer and other machinery...

My girlfriend has 5 horses, her own building to park her horse hauler in (6.7L Ram 3500 dually), and 80% of the stuff I do with the heavy equipment is building her the horse farm of her dreams, so I am in her good graces. I also have no other place to work on stuff yet, probably next year I will...

That 955L was supposed to be a "buy it, use it, sell it" kind of thing but I keep finding it very useful to have around for clearing trees and digging/loading shale in my poor little one ton dump truck. I could really use a 6x6 military dump truck but one hasn't popped up for cheap yet. The 955L...

I always cover the intake and exhaust with buckets or cans, also throw tarps over the seats and dash. The only reason the 955L loader arms are up is because I changed the oil and have some other down time maintenance to do. I have the loader arms safety lever engaged so they can't fall down...

Finally got it home after some scheduling issues with the trucker! Looks good next to the 955L! Found the hour meter on the engine and it only shows 1473 hours! The Cat manuals are trickling in from purchases on ebay and I started ordering filters to freshen it up.

Picking up the D6B next weekend. Woohoo!

Wow, darn near everything but the D6B. Thanks for looking!
