Anybody know who the "go to" guy is on carbs for the 85 CI gasser engines on these trailers? I will be on leave all next week and if I could get a rebuilt carb I could try to inflate my shelter.

There are seven trailers left. All have the shelter but the door units are missing. Still sold as is, picked up at my place in NE Ala. The trailer and engine are worth the $900.00 asking price. PM me if interested.

Littlebob, WOO HOO......congrats man.....I hope I can get mine to inflated but being stationed at Fort Benning now keeps me away all week. The engine will start on mine but the carb leaks like a sieve. I have started scrapping some of the aluminum out but I still have not dismantled any of the...

The trailers are located in Alabama. I am helping a guy get rid of them that has no experience with MV's. He bought them at an auction a few years ago and just sort of forgot them and stuck them out in a field. He gave me a timeline to get rid of them. After that he is going to scrap them for...

If you are refering to the inflatable shelter I have not removed it from it's protective cover yet. If the engine runs and the belts are not dry rotted I am going to try to inflate the shelter (if I can convince #2 son to assist Dad). There are several aluminum poles that appear to be some sort...

Littlebob......Since no one has showed me the color of their money I am preparing to scrap out the one in my shop and eventually the others. All of the parts are there and I have not cut or removed anything. I turned the engine over with a breaker bar so it is not locked up. I have not tried...

If you are refering to me Ryan, I have never erected (or seen for that matter) one of these units. I discovered them while scrounging for MV's at a boneyard near me. I have an option on all of them until the end of the year. The TM says it is a four man lift to take the storage platform off the...

Littlebob. Since these trailers don't seem to be attracting a lot of interest I will probably have them for a while. :( The old lady is already honing her razor sharp tongue (I told you so). :x I have never done Ebay so I guess they will be sold by word of mouth, local advertising and of...

I went through the TM posted above by NEIOWA (thanks again) and it looks like it is at least a four man operation since the top storage rack has to be removed (four man lift). The door unit weighs two hundred pounds. If the weather damage is too severe I may just strip them down to the...

Since I am busier than a three-legged dog at a flea circus I have not had time to even haul one to my shop. :lol: I'm taking two days off this week and will get one over there. From looking at them I think everything is still there although very much weather worn. I'm eager to see if the...

NEIOWA.....thanks much. That will help if I decide to erect one of these things. I can print it out at work (your tax dollars at work). I don't think the intent was to have enough of these shelters for every Joe. Probably key leaders and HQ personnel. The rest of us poor slobs had to dig a...

Ken, none of the manuals for this beast are in the canvas pouches on the side. Do you know where they can be found either in cyber space or hard copy? :?: I am working this weekend so I won't have time to take one to the shop and give it the once over. We have some NBC guys in the unit so I...

I am going to buy the $500.00 trailer. :D When I went back to get a better look at it I was told that there were also some other MV's (trucks and jeeps) and that I could go scrounging through the yard. 8) I ran across these CHEMICAL SHELTER TRAILERS out on the back forty. :shock: They...
