And just like that, I am already in Ohio and should be at the show by noon. If you see a sad fellow in green sunglasses wandering around looking lost, well, that's me.
Ha, ok. I'll head over for Friday.
The question is, do I take the company wagon with free gas, but limited cargo room (limits how much I can buy, which can be a good thing) or drive the truck and 22' trailer at 8mpg, but the sky is the limit as far a cargo.
Decisions, decisions.
Gents,
So how big is this show and what is the expected quantity of HMMWV parts? I have family in Ohio and can make this a quick visit, but curious if it justifies the drive.
I have a laundry list of "needs" and actual needs for my M966 rebuild and my GMV conversion.
Looking for TOW...
Ha, the interior of my truck is completely gutted, save for 3/4s of a radio setup and a gunner's platform. Since you have all the parts, it sounds like you are a step ahead of me. ;)
Check out the photos of the M1025/26/45/46s that have recently sold on govplanet. They are largely intact and...
Sidewall to sidewall is definitely 85-86". As sintorin and others have said, either lower the air pressure and squeeze it through or build wooden ramps. The only real option for full clearance is a deckover. I recently bought a 102" wide trailer with drive over fenders specifically for my...

I have a laundry list of "needs" and actual needs for my M966 rebuild and my GMV conversion.
Looking for TOW accessories, both diff assemblies, brake assemblies, A1 style steering wheel, laverne brush guard, 4L80e crossmember and dual ~8.6" antennas for the M966.
Jeep style...
Looks good. Post up some more pics when you get a chance and any details on the application: method, pressure, if/how you thinned it, number of coats, etc.
I have zero automotive painting skills, but I want to paint my 2 man all green and am open to something different than 383. I need to test...
How do they compare to the M1102/2 trailers? The consensus is the M101s are a better trailer, or a better relative value because the 101s sell for less?
This is a genuine question as I do not have any experience with the M101s.
Definitely interested in attending. What is the outlook on HMMWV parts?
I am looking for an obscene amount of parts, but a few come to mind:
4 man soft top curtain in camo
2 man soft top/curtain/doors in green
troop seats
pair of full length rear half doors
rear hard door strikers
GMV parts...
