M37s aren't rare.

Do you have a link stating this because I just did a search and it brings up manuals. It will only open manuals coded A. I have both the 1988 and 2006 version of the manual asked about and the 1988 is coded C and the 2006 is coded A.

Not trying to high jack the thread but I have to ask how do manage driving your deuce? I'm 6'3 and I have a **** of a time getting to the clutch.

I recovered mine out of Fairchild AFB 5/31/2012. Below is the info you requested. M35A2C WOW 1040-11533 89K 394 Warranty Date 6/89 Rust Proofing 6/89 Mileage @ release 05187.8 Hours @ release 0248.7 The most miles I put on it was during the recovery drive from Spokane WA to Stevensville, MT.

I'd recommend posting your question on the www.g838.org site. This site is dedicated to the 151 jeeps and there is a gentlemen over there with the user name muttguru that you can contact and he might be able to help with your contract number question. If you have the original data plate and can...

All the replacement data plates are made with fill in the blank lines. The only way you will be able to get an exact copy of your old plate is to find someone that can do it but it won't be cheap. There was an individual a few years ago that was going to start producing these plates with the...

Fuel Pump Okay, when I posted this it was a cut and paste for another sites WIKI. The pump you want is an Airtex 60577. Autozone has them for 19 bucks. These are mechanical pumps used on 1960's era Plymouth Valiant. The only difference is that you won't b eable to ford a river with the civilian...

Hey wheelspinner, What did you do in the force? I was an aircraft mechanic and retired in 2005. When did you call it quits?

M151A2…Airtex, customer part number 021163, catalog number 928M, cost USD43, available at Autozone. or also usable, but not identical fuel pump for mid 60s Valiant with slant six

The guy is in his late 80's and is asking 15-20K probably because he is done with flying and is trying to retire. All though you have no intent on flying it, you should plan on keeping it airworthy. One day you may decide to sell and it will be worth more $$ in an airworthy condition. My advise...

Most likely the engine is from a civilian power wagon of the era. Check the head on the forward drivers side for T245 in the beginning of the number. If it doesn't start with it, then it is a civilian block.

Did the gentlemen that sold you the truck get it from GL or a private party? Who ever applied the tan paint didn't do a good prep job. The truck will look real nice when your done, keep up the good work.

Your best option is to find a reputable aircraft mechanic and have him do a pre buy inspection for you. He will know what to look for as far as documentation and overall condition. He should also be able to give you an idea as to the operating costs if you choose to keep it airworthy.

If you just want a name, how about "Whistling Dixie?" It is a whistling deuce and Dixie refers to the southern part of the USA. Maybe paint an image of a confederate cavalryman charging on horseback with his sabre drawn. I think this would tie it together.

I walked past mine and thought I should probably start it. Yeah that didn't happen. Oh well maybe this coming weekend.

Those are water tanks built by Boeing for the C-47 and C-117 Skytrain.

I believe that as long as the vehicle is over 25 years old it is exempt from the emissions and Federal Safety Standards requirement. I don't think the CNG conversion will be an issue. The best thing to do is get in touch with customs and tell them what you are trying to import. Whatever they...

Wow!!!!!!!!!! So you drove a truck this size on the highway 146 miles knowing it didn't have brakes. You do realize that had you been involved in an accident and killed someone, your actions could have brought this hobby into a negative light. As a result the government could have changed its...

Has there been any forward progress on this project?

It could have been a brush truck for a local fire department at one point. Those brackets on the front of the bed look like steps used to climb inside.
