Awesome looking CUCV!

Steel Soldiers love fire trucks!

Does anyone know if there is a NAPA part number for the U-bolts that attach the springs to the axle on the M416 trailer? If not, I need the correct size for them to get them made up ASAP. Also, will need the Ubolts that attach the front frame rails to the bed (these are square U-bolts).

Whenever you're ready to put down the muscle cars and pick up the green iron again, we're here to welcome you back! There are many 10-tons out there waiting for your "touch"!

52 tons of death machine, baby!

Go buy it for cheap and part it out. Some guys here do have them and can use the parts. Like I said, they suffer from rust, if we don't save parts when we can, they will all dissolve into the ground!

What's wrong with the bolts on your truck? Are they all bad? If they are good, leave them. No need to bankrupt yourself for that. Let's just say, get a good estimate, and multiply by three. That will be the cost of the restoration. Restos are killer, very few can do it right and still...

I can speak from a little experience, but not a lot. I owned an M890 a while back, the 2WD version of the M880. Full time 4WD. The transfer case is the NP203, a bulletproof unit. They do have Gremlins. The Gremlins are rust-related, and in late-70s USA built vehicles, the gremlins were...

Glad to hear you're going, Chris! If you have any improvements that need to be done to your ERTLator truck, bring the materials and I'll gladly give you a hand! God, I must be going nuts - I've been without my own MV for so long I suddenly want to wrench on other people's trucks!

I think it's a good idea - heck, I miss the days when DRMO was running the auctions, when $5 was the low bid! I won several items at $5 each lot, made me very happy. Anyways, I think it's a good business decision...

There are a few M48s and M60s in civvy hands. Not many. By the time they were too old for Uncle Sam to want, the demil requirements say they need to be cut up into tiny pieces. The ones in foreign countries are not allowed to come back in. Pending a future change in importation regulations...

I will be bringing a M416 trailer to sell at the show. It is in nice shape with new paint, new shocks, and new wiring, with a flat-4 trailer connector. Body has been replaced with flat deck and wood sides instead of the rusted-out steel tub it had. Tires are VG. Will be located in my usual...

You're a better man than I, John. Someone stole my jeep, I'd track them to the ends of the Earth. Vengeance is mine, sayeth my 12-gauge.

I guess you have a point. You can either have no dollars and a lot of sense, or a high credit limit and no sense. I guess I've spent too much time among those who are the former. :)

Ditto. It's one thing if you bring some tools, fluids and stuff "just in case" and you break down because of something you DIDN'T BRING vs. Not bringing anything at all, crossing your fingers, and hoping for the best. In a 1,300 mile trip, something is going to happen. Hope he makes it...

I say get the video cleaned up - move this along as best you can, get them to take the prints they can, see where it takes you and the cops. Whether the jeep is home or not, the guilty should be found and punished, or they will do it again. My guess is they only returned it to you (in a sense)...

Thanks!
