Ref the diesel water heater.....MD is a looooog way from Bammer but if the price was right and I could get it here it would be great to heat the water for my redneck outdoor hot tub (metal stock...

What about one of those units that go on front of the big van trailers. I scrapped three off the one I have.
One could be secured in the bed of the truck (deuce or 5 ton) and be powered off the stock alternator or an additional one if needed.
The cool air could be ducted to the cab.
As mentioned...
I gots brand new fuel tanks for it and your other rustbucket....but putting them new fuel tanks on "TOWDULLED" would be like putting a teddy on Janet Reno. (let that vision sear into your retinas)

Hummmm......we should have three men and a boy there.....this years camp will have a much stronger military theme to it so the 1st Sgt can just detail some folks to help me put it up:-D.

As for the armor plated idea.......I have a wrecker......I have a welder......I can get steel.....OH CRAP!!!!!!! I got another project in the idea box.
HUMMMMMMMM..........my 5 ton wrecker is insured with Progressive...it is a commercial policy but since I have farm tags on it and it is not for hire the rate is decent.
My agent is well aware of what it is but I am not sure if she made it clear to Progressive that it was a military vehicle...
I will be at Redstone Thursday to meet some congressional aides that are working on a miltary pension pay issue for me and other retirees...if anybody needs a preview or pickup that would work for me.
I am leaving tonight to go to Columbus, Ohio to pick up some NOS fuel tanks I bought a while back.
I am also going to try to pickup some items I bought today if the invoice will come through.
My appointment is at 1130 so if anyone needs anything picked up that is coming down I-75/I-59 give me a...

Welcome to the loony bin....check out the thread for Clinto's rally...coming up in Oct near Madison...it would be a great place to meet other people in our support group.
