About to replace the tires on the V with a set of Michilen G20 radials and I need to get a set of tubes for them. What is the correct tube stem type / model. Also, can i run bias ply tubes in radials, I've heard that you can't, but you can run radials in bias ply tires?
Thanks for the help...
About a month ago I took the v to a car show about 2 miles from my place with no problem. One the way home it felt as though my brakes were starting to drag and my wife who followed me home said that the brake lights came on while in the neighborhood. When I parked in the driveway, turned her...
Only problem with producing new tracks for the M114 is the very limited number of them in private hands. there are more than likely 20-50 half tracks for every one privately owned M114. Going to be very hard to get any savings from economies of scale. Not trying to throw cold water on the...
You and I think alike as I've already started conversations with two local and new cities about that. I would need to be deputized though, don't want to be the only one on site with civil liability.. :[
I finally had it tagged on Tuesday and took it out a in the evening when traffic was low in the area to get a good test run in. While going down a little side road to a parking lot I use to cut over to another street, I noticed a Chamblee PD police SUV parked in a little parking lot to the side...

I'll dig around in El Salvador as I have family there and a few higher level contacts. I'm trying to get one of the Armored Dodge M37s out of there, which where used in the civil war in the 1980-90s. I spent the New Years in San Salvador this year (2014-2015). Let me see what I can find.
Have a bit too much petal play (more than I like) and a little soft so I bled the line from the master cylinder to the power assist and had one or two large air bubble comes out. Now it seems to be much better, still a little more travel than I like. Since I don't know the exact history of the...

Picked up what appears to be a 1960 Ford M151 from Chuck last night and made it back to airport to pick up the wife with 5 minutes to spare.
Will keep a picture log on this forum of the progress over the next year or two as I slowly restore this diamond in the ruff. I'll take a bunch of...
