To title a vehicle in NC: You need to fill out a MVR-1 (Title Application), a MVR-651 (Declaration of Eligible Risk, aka insurance form), a MVR-181 (Damage Disclosure Statement). You will need to provide either a Title from the previous owner reassigning the vehicle to you (requires...

If any of the above do not work out...I'll be at Bragg both this Thursday and next picking up trailers for folks...

This may or may not help you... But, if Berg Tire in Fayetteville, NC, has them, I can pick them up for you and get them as far north as Syria, VA, on either the second or third full weekend in October (I have to be at the familly farm anyway for their annual harvest festivals). It doesn't...

I always use 5mpg when figuring fuel stops in both my XM813 and my M817... Seems about right for both although I admit to not having run the exact numbers recently. I rarely go down the road empty (unless it is the return trip to the quarry...). I always got right around 10mpg in the...

Yep, I know this sounds backwards to a lot of folks, but... Got a buddy who scored on a HMMWV with a blown 6.5. He then scored on a few 6.2 engines (rebuilt, HMMWV, with all the accessories on them in the can). So, we need to stick an engine into his ride. He remembers having this done...

Oh Crud... Now I have to go and paint "don't run".... :( I got the XM813 at the same time Brandon got this M54A1 and the paint for both came on the same pallet... It looks really good Brandon... :)

Good to hear that everyone is doing better. We'll be back at the farm next year on the same weekend (with more trails, etc.) so, hopefully, we'll see you then...

I don't rember the price point on the unit that I had (that is now in a truck accross town), but I remember being told that it was about a third of the US one. I didn't purchase it, so I have no way of checking records on it...

I see that the link to my website page with R2 info has already been posted, so I'll just second the request to have dataplate info and such sent on to me for inclusion in my listing... I know where a few of these are (including two in North Carlina that are relatively complete and looking for...

I'm like the other guys who just muscle it around... Maybee that why I get up in the morning and go do my PM still... :) I also keep a small sledge in the toolbox as it helps to unstick the pins (and it's part of my tire changing gear that I keep in hand just in case...). I think my ratio of...

LOL, I have four T245 230 cubic inch M37 engines in the back yard... Two "runners" sitting in a M101 trailer and two "parts blocks" sitting on pallets. If shipping wasn't a bear, I'd sell you one of the runners for $300 just to get it out of my hair... The 318/360 swap used to be easier...

I have a buddy who has been running a Chinese head for about four years now... Can't tell any difference between the Chinese unit and a US Made one when installing it or running it. Got if from another friend here in NC who was asked to test them. In fact, I got it just before Bjorn had his...

Chuck was showing you his copy of David Doyle's U.S. Military Vehicles Field Guide: World War II - Present . David is on this site as DDoyle... PM him for a copy... :)

Great photos. I think your wife did great Rick, that shot of the M151 in the middle of the ford is enough to make me want to add one to my collection... :) As someone who was too busy to take many photos, I really appreciate everyone else's...

While on the subject of spark plugs, I have a page on my website that discusses military plugs (including cross reference info for different manufacture's parts numbers for them) as well as some generic info such as what the condition of a plug tells you about your engine's performance. See...

Great to see you here! Glad that you could make the rally in Virginia. Looking forward to seeing you at some events here in NC before we see you again up in VA. :)

My thoughts on bed wood for the M37 (and the M101) can be found at: Bed Wood Included are the dimensions for all the pieces... :)

I really want to thank everyone who came out for the event. I had a great time, and hope that everyone did as well. I didn't take many photos, so hopefully, some other folks did and will post them or email them to me (some folks aren't on the forum here). I'll post mine tonight when I...

My comments about vehicle registration, license class, and insurance, for vehicle domiciled in North Carolina are (should be) in the thread that Chuck referenced in his earlier post. In a nutshel: North Carolina has NON-CDL Class A, B, and C operator's permits (licenses). If you are not...
