Since the other guys have answered the rest, I'll take the composite tailight question... :) You can use the current production composit tailights (and front marker lights for that matter) on a M37 with a slight modification. The mounting holes drilled in the tailight bracket are about a...

One of the things that our Communications Officer will be distributing to all of the convoy partipants just prior to the Convoy will be a listing of Ham/Military frequencies, FRS/GRS and CB,channels to be used as primary and secondary channels by each Serial. Included will be cell phone...

Then, there are those of us who do not have an avatar (and aren't really looking to get one...). So, he isn't missing anything on MY posts... ;)

A quick check of your state's code will usually show you the answer to this type of question, but yellow and white flashing/rotating lights are generally considered to be warning lights and, as has been said already, better to beg forgiveness than to be dead... Now, in North Carolina the color...

You can stay in a Vendor spot without selling. The big deal is that they do not want you selling stuf in the Display area. Plus, having a Vendor spot gives you a garunteed location. Good luck.

Re: RE: East Coast Convoy 2007 Clinto, Currently, based on previous years... Brandon and the guys in Western, NC will be running down I40 and will intersect I85 in Greensboro (and can hook up with those comming up I85 from Charlotte and points south) at one of the truck stops, eateries, or the...

We haven't chalked any numbers on folks vehicles since A) some folks hate you doing that to thier nice paint, and B) we tend to shuffle folks around some at each meeting location as the series combine on the way to Aberdeen. We do run signage on the vehicles (Convoy Follows, Convoy Ahead...

Consider your application approved. Also, consider yourself drafted at the Western Serial Commander... I'll PM you my contact info and will be in touch to provide guidance, answer questions, and listen to suggestions, etc... Glad to have you aboard, Cabell Garbee Convoy Coordinator/Convoy...

RE: Re: RE: Good trucks I think that a lot of folks believe the older tansmissions are not synchronized since folks have abused them so much that the synchros are dead in most of trucks... I've got a truck with the older transmision in it that was a bear to shift until I took it apart and...

I run them on my M37, M38, M101, M416, and flatbeds... I most likely will install them on the XM708 although I will keep the stock lenses around for shows... I have LED elements in all the lights (use the versions that are direct replacements for incandescent bulbs... Photos of my stuff are all...

Convoy arrival in Aberdeen is scheduled for Thursday afternoon. The folks in the Northern Serials (Red and Blue) manage to do it all on one day, folks in the Southern Serial (Yellow) have to convoy mulitple days. Graham made it from Atlanta to Doswell last year in a day without pushing too...

I'm hoping that all of you will be in the East Coast Convoy... I've asked Kenny to be our Southern Serial (Yellow) Commander (he will be responsible for organizing the movement of folks in the convoy from Florida up to Aberdeen. I'll be asking for volunteers to do the same for the two...

RE: Good trucks Actually, the early series transmissions are synchronized in 2-4 as well. Different threads on the input shaft bearing retainer, slightly different pitch to the gears on the countershaft, different location for the fill plug, longer shift lever on the later model (although...

Not Military Vehicles Magazine this time but Army Motors... One of the publications from the MVPA. Worth looking at this time for David's article and some other photos from his collection (obtained from the National Archives). As I am letting my MVPA membership expire, I won't be getting...

You can get the bulbs at any parts store. NAPA and PepBoys tend to have 24volt ones in stock, others usually have to order them (in my area, at least). A lot of truck shops have them as well. A listing of bulb part numbers by application is on my website and I have 12 volt versions as well...

Will do. Hope to see a bunch of you there this fall. Meanwhile, I have a page on my website with photos from last year that will give everyone an idea of what the place looks like (and of the vehicles that appeared...). I suspect that we can get a trailride organized in addition to the static...

RE: diesel engine in m37 A Gama Goat engine is a fine choice for a repower... At least one person on this site has a Detroit 3-53N in his M37 and I know of a couple others who do as well... Wear your hearing protection (not a dig at the Detroit, I do the same with my Cummins...).

Considering the global nature of manufacture, I don't think that you could really call any of these truly American/Japanese/German/British ect... I'd personnaly rather see the truck going up and down the road being useful than rotting in a field or getting smelted down. The Isuzu engine in the...

Actually, the event is closer to Newton, NC than Hickory and we are talking the western part of NC... It is not far off of US321 just south of the US321/I40 interchange... Actual street address is: Propst Crossroads Volunteer Fire Department 3169 Plateau Rd. Newton, NC 28658 704-462-1460 It...

I saw that Zane had posted over on the www.G503.com website about the fall show in Hickory, NC so I thought that I would cross post it over here for him so that folks who like to plan WAY AHEAD can get this on the schedule... The 2nd annual North Carolina Military Vehicle Show is scheduled for...
