    Save the Date 28-31 May 2025 51st Annual East Coast Military Vehicle Rally Hagerstown Aviation Museum

    I plan on attending that Friday, not as a vendor, though. I love the new venue, and always look forward to seeing friends and attending the auction on Friday afternoon. See everyone there!

    Do we know how long the auctions will continue?

    I don't sorry, I wasn't bidding on them myself. To be honest I can't even remember what base they were at. I just save pics and crap on my computer forever and ever. :)

    Do we know how long the auctions will continue?

    I remember going to auctions in the late 1990s when you still had to be there and raise a paddle, they were selling a few HMMWVs then, but they were basically carcasses, scrap metal. Results of failed parachute drops or range targets. Once in a while a whole body would come out by itself, but...

    Now that I'm closer to NC than MD, I might have to attend this rally and forego my usual haunt of Aberdeen/Hagerstown. I've heard good things about Denton...

    HEY! I don't appreciate that BS! That fireball was only 200 feet high, 300 tops. :)

After a couple years trying to sell it as-is, the only people who have shown interest in it in the condition it's in are landscapers (who will be hating life after they realize it's too heavy for its...

    Oh yes!

    I'll be the first to say that a little so-called "white noise" actually puts me to sleep, but I think this is a little too much. You'd wake up fully refreshed...but you'd be deaf.

    M1009 antenna bracket mounting points, hardware

    Thanks, all, for the info. For the life of me I couldn't remember what those rivnuts were called! I am torn between removing the ones in place and putting new ones in the same location, or just drilling new holes slightly offset from the original location and putting new rivnuts there.

    M1009 antenna bracket mounting points, hardware

    So I have completed my move to the new location, and getting set up for the next MV project which is refurbishing the CUCV 1009 I got from Scrounger's estate. A noticed several of the fittings where the antenna mounting brackets go into the side body sheet metal are either seized up (can't...
