    CUCV III or LSSV?

    Just looking for input, are the terms synonymous? I find on later trucks that they are marked lssv, my 2002 data plate says cucv III but the manual in the glovebox states LSSV. The other thing i was wondering about is the gvwr on the door sticker is different from the data plate that is...

    Cucv III / LSSV loaded and on the way home

    Re: Cucv III loaded and on the way home So I got home late last night and had to work today, so just a few more pictures for now. I've got a few dents to knock out. It is wired for both front and back winches. I'm going to have to see if I can find canvas seat covers for the driver seat and...

    Cucv III / LSSV loaded and on the way home

    Its here! We loaded up and got the tow truck out at 6 am this morning. We met our transporter in Redding at around 8 am. The truck is definitely cool! We went to see if i could jump it to get it off of the trailer and i found that someone had loosened all the battery terminals. I tightened up...

    Cucv III / LSSV loaded and on the way home

    I love it when i reply to myself.. I am not going to mess with driving it home, I guess that is what my AAA card is for. Hopefully this time tomorrow it will be sitting in the driveway! I'll be riding over with the tow and get some good shots of it upon pickup.

    Cucv III / LSSV loaded and on the way home

    I realize posts are useless without pictures, so hopefully tomorrow i'll be able to start. I just purchased a CUCV III/LSSV from Barstow. The trucking company that i am using just picked it up and it's on its way up to northern California as of now. Unfortunately the trucks batteries were dead...

    Do you need a CDL for a 5 ton

    Upon looking at this thread, There are a couple things to address: folks are mixing up commercial vehicle (CV) and commercial drivers license (CDL). Two separate beasts completely. The thread itself is asking about CDL's. A prime example of this is those 30 ton, cement-pumping 8 wheel rigs or...

Mine was the best in the bunch and was practically new. 123 miles, overhauled in 2007 by red river army depot and came completely loaded with tools.. all i had to literally do to get it going was change the batteries. I think though mine was...

    Haffies! 1 of 2

    Hmm prius is a better comparison at least that cushman. I'll take whatever concessions that i can! As far as highway travel, The only way you'll see the haflinger is if it's in tow. I only use it on surface streets/ in town. The same places you'll get run over as a pedestrian ;-) A "highway...

    Haffies! 1 of 2

    Man.. that is like comparing a tricycle to a harley! Haflingers sport portal axles, independant suspension, on the fly 4wd, selectable front and rear lockers. Incredibly capable offroad and 50 state street legal. :razz: picture is a haffy + various other euro stuff at the nwmf 07

    Funny you should say that.. The Sugga is what i had been looking for when i came across the 912.. They share the same front end from the cab forward. Different engine and drive train of course!

    Shame that this forum says Pinzgauers.. It really should be labeled Steyr-Puch! Being that i don't have control over posting images as they all get shuffled into a mish-mash thumbnail viewer series, i am breaking this post into two.. I've got a couple Haflingers. The first one here is a 1968...

    Volvo C202 Doka

    A couple shots of the Volvo C202 Doka. Setup with PTO driven hydraulics. I have yet to see another one of these Doka's stateside. I've got too many projects and not enough time. This will be up for sale soon. It's similar in size to a jeep as far as wheelbase and width.

    Not Enough Volvo Posts! my 912

    Seeing that there aren't a lot of Volvo truck posts, I am going to add a few. This is my ex military 1959 Volvo 912. I believe the production run on these trucks is under 900. Powered by a gas straight 6 .. 4.5 liter or so. 6x6, with vacuum lockers.. though i need to take better shots. The...
