Though I haven't read the TM for the HMMWV I have read plenty if TMs and most of them have an excellent troubleshooting section in them that will take you through a step by step check to find out what is or isn't working with your gauge. If the TM has trouble shooting procedures I would follow...
I saw one M37 turned brush truck. The rest were all civilian trucks from what I could see. There is a hobby that puts MV Collecting to shame in the dollars and cents category.
I would think it would be easier to drop a camper into the bed than it would to convert a pick up into a box van. Or get a box off a box van truck and put it on the frame and don't connect the cab to the box.
The M715 was a temp replacement to the M37 so it was only built for 3 years (more like 2.5) but in a large enough quantity that there are still many of them out there. Unfortunately they were made with a motor that for whatever reason was given a bad rap (bad pr) and so when the trucks hit the...
Again congrats on your excellent workmanship in bringing the old girl back to life. Many people myself included would have written that body off for scrap so a huge round of applause for your efforts! :goodjob: :not worthy: [thumbzup] The mods are A-Okay in my book! Drive her with pride!
Congrats on the new ride. It looks good. I knew a few guys back in the day who would Y cut the mutts to get them off the DRMO lot, but would make reweld easy. Yours might be one of them. Take a look at RAPCO http://www.rapcoparts.com/ you might be able to get the brake parts you need there...

I'm thinking it's a defective light. If you had a loose wire feeding the light the whole light would blink on and off and not just part of the light. Therefore I'm thinking it's the lamp its self.
Take your flywheel to a engine machine shop and have them do the conversion. This type of work is something done in the hot rod world all the time. Generally it's a four to eight bolt conversion, but a good machine shop should be able to convert four to six.
Try canvas suppliers like Beachwood or WeeBee Webbing. There are special Murphy snaps because they have a machine screw on the back and most places that carry them only have ones with wood screws.
Here is another resource for you. http://www.deltateamdecals.com/ He makes a good product also. The best thing to do is do a google search for the army manual on marking of vehicles during the Korean War. A quick search pulled up this TB746-93-1 Color and Marking of Military Vehicles but it's...
Depending on how deep the pitting is if it's light you might be able to just hone the walls and be good. A good machine shop should be able to tell you what you can get done and for how much, but the fix is not bad.
