I might could snag it next week if the Boss Lady wants to drive the dually and pull the lowboy to the rally.
PM me a phone number and I'll give you a call.
I had two very long days on the movie shoot, Thursday was over 12 and Friday my call time was 03:45 and I didn't leave the Base Camp until after 8 PM.
Today was a light day for working on the M930A2 (I thought that one up myself).
I had to get the bed that came off the M927 secured to the...

It's better than good........it's GREAT!!!!!!
I been to four marryins, six buryins, three rodeos and one goat roping and I ain't seen nothin like this.

I'm in Atlanta Thurs, Fri and maybe Sat. The film location is just off exit 59A on I-20 dam near downtown.
PM me a phone number. I'm not in the pickup truck and don't know if they will fit in the new skate I bought a while back.

We had an issue last year where a "friend of a friend" that was attending had his hogleg out in the open. We explained the rules to him and he stashed it and it was not an issue. As PB put it we have plenty of firepower if we need it we just don't want to give the impression that we...

I went and picked up the 5th wheel today and other than being pretty rusty I think it will fit the bill. I soaked it with a mixture of diesel and veggie oil and hopefully that will free everything up.
I did some measuring and there is plenty of room behind the short bed for it. My IV...
Be careful with your feline friends, mike has a recipe for cat.
I won't say he gets creative with the protein but I know a possum when I see one.:wreckerman893:
I myself spent 30 months total in Korea, I never knowingly ate dog but occasionally I get an overwhelming urge to sit on my ass and...

Not on my best day. The truck is 34 feet long with a cargo cover on it. By the time you see that the trailer is kattywampus it's too late to correct.
No....ironically I don't even own a movie camera. I prefer to be on the other side of the camera. It's the ham in me.
Barring an...

If you want to shave that down you can camp out. Usually there is extra space in other peoples vehicles or hooches.
You can also do KP in lieu of paying for your meals. You get a free meal for every meal shift you work in the MKT. We can always use extra hands.
See me or Mike when...

For right now I'm leaving everything as it is. The van trailer is pretty light so I don't think it will affect the steering.
If it turns into a permanent thing I might consider a tag axle back there.

There can be if we come to a meeting of the minds. I have one that is presently holding the bed off the M-927.
PM or call me and we'll discuss it.

Well I've been threatening to do it for a while and I finally decided to do something radical with the M927.
For the last two years I've been hauling the circus wagon (Electronics Van Trailer) to the GA Rally behind the truck using a tow dolly and in the immortal words of Popeye the...

If you are going to use it for logging my advice is to get an M928A2 due to the 20 foot bed, double frame and winch.
If you take the bed off and put standards on it you could haul 25 foot logs pretty easy.
The 8.3 can be turned up and with the super single tires you can maintain 60...

The two best days of my M816 ownership was the day I got it and the day I sold it.
It was the money pit from ell from the word go. I take full responsibility since I bought it out of Camp Shelby, MS (a rebuild facility known for parting out trucks) and did not inspect it.
If you want...

I have a 14 foot dropside bed sitting on mine right now. It is handy for storing or hauling stuff. I'll be posting a new project involving the bolster starting tomorrow.

She is butt ugly but that's part of the charm and challenge. I would paint her up in period colors and hit some shows.
And of course you know the greatest MV event in the country is happening early next month.
Bring her down to the GA Rally and you might go home with a new paint job.
