    Nah. I'd like to see all that gear back in the USA, our soldiers in the USA, the older stuff get surplused, and the NEW gear on the southern border with the guns loaded and pointed SOUTH. Lets not forget to point guns EAST and WEST as well ! Trust no one [ well, except for Canada. ]

    Man that stuff is making me sad.

Lucky to see the occassional sets of HUMVEE's on truck going to the old...

    Military Vehicles Mag did another great article on putting disc brakes on the front of M37's using commonly available parts , I am not able to find that one, maybe someone else out there knows which issue/year ? Check out the pics of this $1300 57 M37 I found last week.

    Opinions wanted regarding 3208 CAT

    My cousin used to run 3208's in his dumptrucks and headgaskets seemed to be his nemesis. At one of my old jobs in the past I delivered replacement engines for CAT, and it seemed the 3208 was the one I delivered the most of. Everyone I ever talked to refered to them as the "throwaway" engine, I...

    Rebuild my 1962 M37

    Military Vehicles magazine did a great article in the April 2006 issue on doing an M37 Master cylinder upgrade. You need to read it ! In MY humble opinion, braking technology has come a LONNNNNG way in 40 years, and especially on the M37 NOBODY is even going to see or know you have modified the...

    Guam

    Oh we don't have to worry about carguy455 buying much from Guam ! lol !! Unless somehow some REALLY good M37's , M715's, or earlier small equipment pops up on Guam, it would take something like THAT to get me interested in that kind of insane hassle !!!!!! Maybe some WWII surplus might do it...

    Guam

    Does anything rare or old ever show up on those auctions or is it just the run of the mill deuce's and other semi modern equipment that we can get stateside ?????? Thinking maybe some of those "remote locations" may have ancient stuff around .
