    What the Heck is it??? Look at this!!!!

    I've GOT to move my research library into the same building as my computer! Just spent about 1/2 hr looking, can't even come close. I've seen that front end-fender transition somewhere before, but I'm darned if I can find it. I would also bet those wheels/tires are larger than original...

    Saveable ? What's it worth ?

    Did you get a year off the data plate? I couldn't read it. The holes by the door are for a B1 type swingout tire carrier. If it is a B1, basically rust free, that's amazing for it's location and storage. I've got a couple up here for sale, off the ground on wheels, but I can't say they're rust...

    M211 found, what's it worth ? Should I...

    If this is the same guy with the M37, offer $500 for all of it. This one probably needs a bunch of parts you don't know are missing, and everything that needs replacing is more expensive, bigger, heavier, and harder to find than on the 37. Oh, and what's he going to do with the bed? Granted...

    Hauling with the xm818

    What's that, a 2-day supply of firewood, for the bonfire at the Camp Grayling Color Tour, or are you going from WMO to steam? Love the pics, Dave. Still and impressive rig.

    Saveable ? What's it worth ?

    The engine's been converted to 12v, but someone (the ARMY?) put composite turn signals on the front. I've seen people start with less, and you could get your $$ back if you took it just to sell the parts, especially if you get the cab top bow from the other one and whatever else is there. I'm...

    48 Dodge Ambulance "Camper"

    Hate to see it go as scrap, but that's what it looks like. The trailer could be taken directly to the dump, do not pass go, do not collect $200, and toss everything from the axle up.

    Hi Lift Jack Location? Where did you...

    You could probably rig up a secure bracket on the inside roof just inside the back window so that it will NEVER be buried by cargo. Don't know if the weight would be too much for the fiberglass tho'.

    Just got an R2 crash truck

    Didn't know there was an R-1. Not mentioned in any of my references, unless I just missed it somehow. Not to hijack the thread, but could you provide more info?

    M109 trailer Conversion thread

    I read something a few pages back about "shooting for Labor Day"??? I'm waiting to hear more, much more.:mrgreen::shock:

    48 Dodge Ambulance "Camper"

    Wonder how many miles he put on it in the 12 years? The pic by the tunnel looks like what many of us dreamed about when we first got into this hobby---roaming the country in a tough, go anywhere, surplus mv. $6500 does seem high, and his description sounds like one of those scams from the...

    If my deuce can't be camo, what color???

    Now, Harleyrider, that was just plain harsh. ;-) I think the poor boy really enjoys riding in the big bad army truck, just doesn't want people to notice anything but the big smile on his face. As we've seen from the "ugliest m.v." threads in the past, even a very classy paint job in...

    Camp Grayling Annual Fall Color Tour 9/25-9/27

    Look forward to seeing a lot of people that couldn't make it to Clare this year. It IS a family event. One small request, though. Please make sure your vehicle is trail ready--lights, horn, steering, tires, engine, battery tiedowns, tranny, transfer, brakes all operational. While we are...

    Truck pictures

    Anyone ever take this further? I can reformat my lists and e-mail or PM them so someone can add pics. BTW, IIRC, that's close to 1000 separate truck models.

    GLMVPA Clare MI Show Aug. 14-15, 2009

    I'll have a crap load of M37 parts for cheap. Bring cash.

    Whats it worth?

    So, did you buy it? HUH? Huh? didjadidjadidja?:-D Inquiring minds want to know. No, we need to know. And, as an added incentive to induce a favorable response from the adored other party, let her know 1) it's a good truck for little ones (10-14) to learn to drive, 2) it's just...

    VJ Day, Hillman, Michigan 8-8-09

    LZ Arielle The Vietnam Equipment display is set up by LZ Arielle. It's VERY hands on for the kids (and anyone else that wants to feel the weight, again). Hillman VFW is very proud their village is one of the few that still celebrates "VJ" day. Some pics from a couple years ago.
