Was there any appreciable differences in the frame design between the WWII Willys MB/GPW, the CJ2A/3A, and the M38? Or for the most part, are they the same?

You guys are doing a fantastic job bringing my ol M37 back to life! The rear crossmember was bent before I bought it in 2010. The only thing I can think happened to it was a previous owner tried pulling out something, like a stump, that didn't want to budge. You know all those people who...

Have a few CUCV M1009s in the area I am looking at, relatively-rust free units which I like, but two of them have IP issues, and will probably require rebuild. Do any of you recommend anybody who rebuilds these pumps, good job for a good price? I priced new injection pumps from NAPA and...

Back to the topic at hand and not wanting to talk about ya'lls personal problems... I have seen the Swench manual impact wrench in operation and I swear by it. They are currently marketed under the Power Hawk name, I believe they were originally a Curtiss-Wright Tools product. They come in...

Very nice work!

Remember, it's a military truck. Don't be too fussy, half the paint jobs done in the military were done by privates with paint rollers in one hand and beers in the other. If it looks too nice, it won't be original.

Hope you're able to import it - that would be REALLY cool to see at a vehicle show!

That was Tremors II, in the first movie he didn't have the deuce yet.

I'm guessing Tremors. Burt Gummer's Chevy/GMC Blazer with "UZI 4U" as the license plate.

You have no idea. Some have been in the hobby for 50 years and have barely scratched the surface as to what can be learned in radio propagation and engineering. Want an eye-opener? Get a book on radio design and engineering from the 1930s or 1940s. By the time you get mid-way through...

Okay, never mind then. Guess michigandon will have things all squared away re: our parking area.

Welcome to the disease. Have your wife lock the credit cards up, trust me.

Preliminary planning - I am planning on getting there early this time, probably 9-10am Friday morning. If I am the first one there I'll cordon off a parking area for our group with cones and rope, or something similar, to give us our normal camping area. Not sure if anyone else is planning on...

If you are really interested in becoming a ham radio operator, do it the right way. Find a local club in your area (they are everywhere) at arrl.org. Go to a meeting or two, and just start talking with other hams. Next, study for and take the technician class operator exam. There are 8 year...

If you can't find one, perhaps it can be fabricated?

I remember CARNAC calling me one time on his trip to Aberdeen, he lost 5 out of 6 lug nuts on the front of his deuce, the studs just broke right off. I believe the previous guy with the impact wrench just went to town and left the 1" impact on them for a few hours or so. Someone local was able...

Looks awesome! Love that camo pattern!

That's a very cool ride. Love the Aperture Science stencil! For those who don't know, it's a reference to a fictitious company in the video game Portal and Portal 2.

If you're feeling froggy, and you want to restore it like a field-service MV, the CJ-5 was used in the field by numerous other countries. Here's one that was fixed up as a faux-Israeli Defense Force CJ-5 jeep by HAWKMAN, he brought it to the Gilbert PA show in 2009 and it looked sharp!
