    Vehicle history of my 923a2

    I concur. My first deuce came out of NY. It served with the 77th Reserve Support Command. The soldiers who crewed the truck were stenciled on the windshields. I contacted the unit and spoke to someone who knew the three guys stenciled on the windshields. Pretty cool.

    troop carrier for a m931 tractor

    You will need to find an M35A2/A2C deuce bed.

    R.I.P.- James "Neil" MacNeill Hendrix

    Rest in peace, Neil. I remember him from the Aberdeen shows; he will be missed.

    Picked up an M151, and need help finding a part

    I was going to say this. Murray is my source for all of my MUTT parts. It shocks me how much NOS stuff he's got! If anyone is near him, it is worth the ride out to his place in Dover, DE just to walk through his warehouses and yard.

    Growler

    The safety issues you mentioned are real, but, for the most part, they were rectified with the A2. However, your point about not being able to put a MUTT on the road legally is not correct. I've had several, and all of them were legally tagged and insured.

    MERDC and LMTV

    You might also look at the MAN trucks since they have a cab-over design. You may be able to extrapolate from it.

    MERDC and LMTV

    I love the MERDC camo pattern and colors. I think your LMTV will look great! I'd love to see pics of your other trucks painted this way, particularly the M923. I've seen several with original MERDC camo, but they are not common.

    M105 Trailer Question

    I suggest putting down the rear stabilizer leg. It should be stowed up under the rear of the trailer (assuming it has not been removed)...it looks to be visible in the last picture.

    M105 Trailer Question

    Admittedly, I don't know how hot "hot" is, but tires get hot from the friction of driving, more so if they are underinflated as Coug pointed out. I used to have some 900s on a deuce that were labeled HEAT MASTER on the side walls (might have been Armstrong); I forget the brand. One thing to...

    M105 Trailer Question

    I've had about 7,500 pounds of hardwood stored in my trailer. I've never taken it on the road with that weight, but I move it on my property. The trailer does not look any worse for wear, but the landing leg left a mark on my driveway.

    Buying a MK23...Am I making the right decision?

    What title paperwork did you receive? I have seen that stated on these threads that the trucks would come with off-road-use-only titles, but I have been unable to confirm that. Until I can, I will not be bidding. I hope you can shed some light on the titling paperwork you received (or will...

    Buying a MK23...Am I making the right decision?

    Does anyone know if they come out with an off-road-use-only stipulation? I have seen this claimed, but I can't find this stated on the GP website.

    M-1161 usmc growler

    Do they come with clear on-road titles? A guy in another thread said that they do not (same goes with the MTVRs). I have not been able to verify his claim, but I also cannot refute it.

    Buying a MK23...Am I making the right decision?

    The MTVRs come out with off-road-use-only titles? Is that what you mean by "tactical (off-road use)?"

    Painting an old truck an accurate US military tan color...

    I had a tan M35A2 that was painted for that conflict, although I have no way of knowing if it actually made it over there or was just painted in preparation. It was a seriously rushed paint job, though, so it could have been used over there.
