Many years ago (too many) I was stationed in Germany in a signal unit.
We had a big Motor Pool with deuces, 5 tons, M151 Jeeps, a 5 ton wrecker and other ecclectic vehicles.
Next to us was a Military Police unit that had M151 Jeeps for tactical use.
Their support vehicle was a deuce with that...
I am picking up some fuel tanks at GL in Columbus on the 22nd. If anyone needs rims from the big sale picked up let me know.
I will be bringing my fuel tanks back to NE Alabama and then taking a deuce to north Florida. I may be deliverind a pallet of rims on that run.
I called GL yesterday to...
GE...I am coming to the rally and will be passing through B'ham.
I'll be glad to bring the rims with me....no charge.....well no cash anyway.....you might have some trade goods I want.
Let James know that I will be picking them up.
I may be picking some trailers for him this week anyway.
PM me a...
James,
I have 2 105's and a 3/4 ton trailer that I am picking up this week.
I got to call Teresa tomorrow and see if I can get an appt Wed.
Call me and let me see what I can work out...I might can bring them on the B'ham for ya.
If you are non-commercial you don't have to stop at weigh stations.
There are occasions where the DOT of individual states will set up inspection stations and require all trucks and vehicles with trailers to stop.
Littlebob...if the shelter is in good shape I will buy/trade.
I am bringing a buttload of stuff to the LA rally so we can work some kind of a deal.
Bring it to the rally with you and I'll bring my leaf blower so we can inflate it.
It will make a great place to get out of the sun/weather.
Jason,
If you are talking about the Chemical Shelter trailer those are pretty cool...they have a 4 cyl gasser engine, heating and cooling system, generator and a blower system for the inflatable shelter. The inflatable shelter is really cool...I used a leaf blower to inflate mine and used it...
I was perusing a GL auction and saw some new in the box 55 gallon fuel tanks on the block.
I managed to win them and then remembered I sold the 5 ton multi-fuel.
They are up for sale and would make great replacements for those old rusted out or dented tanks that are uglying up your pride and...
Alredneck,
It should fit on a 40 footer backwards with no sweat.
I saw that trailer (or its' twin) when I loaded out Tues.
Some of the tires can be aired up but I think the bead was broken on one or two.
They have a big fork lift that can load it for you.
Wrecker
The organization I work for bought the machine shop 5 ton out in Fort Bliss a while back. The EUC has cleared and we need to pick it up.
The problem is that Bliss is an unmanned GL site and everytime we have a truck out there there is no GL person there.
We need someone to pick it up for us and...
Hummmmm......I picked up at Albany this morning......Teresa (the GL rep) met me there and went above and beyond the call of duty loading me out.
I had several trailers and some other items that I had to stuff onto an already partially loaded 45 foot commercial flatbed.
It took three hours to get...
Tim,
I am going to try to make it.....we should have the Shelby trucks sorted out by then...we have stuff coming from all over that I can sell to members at a good price (HEMMET rims, brand new three color cammo tarp and bow sets, etc).
I'll post more as we get the inventory done.
I'll bring...
They had one at the Chemical Museum when it was at Fort McClellan, AL.
There was a huge fuel tank inside the tank along with all manner of hoses and pumps.
I think there were less crew members since there didn't seem to be a lot of room left...I am thinking a driver, Tank Commander and...
