Yes did that after removing the lead plugs and used one of my clock ultrasounds to clean everything .. my metering jets were crap ... I'm sure I missed something.. your absolutley correct about the passageways, I now know that the 1st rebuilder did not do that to include pulling and cleaning any...

Have had a real journey with my Carb.. sent it in for rebuild in 2007 to an outfit in CA. The rebuild was marginal at best and for $400 felt that I was ripped off . Never got that resolved, and the Carb never preformed like it should. Fast forward to this year and my determination to fix my...

will look in the ordinance manual .. sure looks like a HT SA

Just tweaking a few items left on the preservation project checklist before starting in on my Maxson M45F Turret. Decided to dive into my Check Valve on the firewall. Removed it and it rattled just fine, regards movement, but when I opened the valve up and removed the valve(?), found that a bit...

Not Knob Creek Ready ... to much PIA to have real ones...ATF, Homeland Security. Local LEO's ...not worth the asspain!

We are in the history books now regards Hagerty magazine Jan 2020 Issue. This is the 1st article dedicated to a members military vehicle. I am attaching pics of the article. I believe if you enlarge them you will be able to read the 4 page article. Hope we will be able to see more of these...

USAF-CW ...Please see my post for today... regards the Queen. Mark

My African Queen from African desert to home in Ohio where she was built in 1943. She deserves to be recognized for the iconic historic vehicle that she is. Service in multiple combat roles, service on 4 continents, rescued from the desert, brought back home where she truly belongs, brought...

The "African Queen" a 1943 M16A2 MGMC Halftrack recovered from East Africa in 2006 This "Preservation Project" is dedicated to preserving her unique history and combat record as a salute to all those crews who served on her thru 4 conflicts: WWII; Korea; Vietnam; and Africa. It's not a...

ALCON: Attended a National Car show last week Fri-Sun, with 2700+ vehicles. Out of the top 50 awards we took 1st place and even brought home some $ to offset our costs!! We stole the show period, and had many vendors/ collectors showing cars there state that in all the years they've attended...

Are we talking chains for the front wheels or the chains for the tracks? I have both and can look up what I paid for the track chains a few years ago.

M16A2 AAA, African Queen I would like to nominate my 1943 White M16A2 AAA Halftrack the "African Queen". Recovered from East Africa, this "Preservation Project" is dedicated to preserving her unique history and patina as a salute to all those crews who served on her thru 4 conflicts: WWII...

Yes, that patina is priceless!! 76 years old, four conflicts on as many continents, and still almost rust free. That lead paint is incredible. We have nothing really like it today unless its a multi-part type of paint with a catalyst. It was a no brainer for me to make this a preservation vs...

D-l-miki, Visited the War and Peace show this year, 1st time. Planning on going back again next year as there was much I missed and more that I want to pick up. I just hope that the weather will be a little cooler next year. We truly enjoyed our time in the UK, great people and a beautiful...

So appreciate the feedback!!! That is the M45F Maxson Turret sitting next to the track in the desert in Africa. The French pulled the turret out, cut out the gun compartment bulkhead, and mounted a missile launcher inside the track. They removed the launcher but left its baseplate in the...

After years of delays, deployments, wounded warrior, school and two moves across country, I've finally gotten my ride to the point of near completion. What a great ride it's been!!! Some before and after pics...

Ready for the magazine picture shoot tomorrow .. My pup Jillian just had to get into the pic. The M-10 is not quite finished yet as I need to mount the correct combat wheels and tires. But its good enough for the shoot.

I'd like to post the TM once I get it scanned.
