I have three of the in-tank M151A1 fuel pumps, part number 10950785. Question I have is how do I test them? I can’t really sell them if I can’t verify operability. I’ve checked the various TM’s with no luck. Depending on your TM copy, it’s in figure 21, item 10 of TM9-2320-218-34P dated 15...
I have a Denix replica M16A1. Very difficult to tell if it’s real or replica. The most eye catching trait is the orange plug in the barrel. I also have a M16A2 airsoft. It’s scary how real it looks and no orange plug! I would be very nervous carrying it anywhere but in my gun truck.
Here’s how War Wagon is set up in “the box”. Three M2 .50 Browning replicas, 1 M60 LMG replica, one M16A1 replica, four M26 “Lemon” grenade replicas, two spent M18 smoke grenades, one spent M72 LAW rocket tube, dozens of ammunition cans (.50, .308, 5.55mm, and others) and many other items...
Apologies for not posting all the back story on War Wagon (WW). My hands are protesting vehemently against all the abuse I did to them over the past two weeks. First off, showed the truck at the F.E. Warren Fort DA Russell Days. Lots of kids, adults and veterans got a good look over and I and my...
Back in my younger, less disciplined days, I learned of a trick to mess with the local bully’s car/truck. Remove valve stem cap. Insert small pebble into cap. Lightly install cap back on valve. Repeat with other wheels as necessary. Guaranteed to deflate a tire in very short order! Now I never...
The long term plan for my AF truck is to paint it strata blue with white lettering. Most of the old missile trucks were painted that way. Our step vans were also painted strata blue/white letters. There’s a missile truck on display at FE Warren’s main gate in strata blue/white. I’ll be at the...
Please help me understand this a bit more. If I decide to drive my gun truck War Wagon to Fort Collins or Greeley Colorado from Cheyenne Wyoming, what will happen? Will they try to ticket me? Maybe try to confiscate it? Any MV shows south of the Wyoming border have become off limits to me? I...
One other option which may need looking at. When you burn nasty gas it’ll gum up your spark plugs. If they’re stock, might be able to clean them up. If aftermarket, best bet may be replacing them. My lawnmower gets pissy about sour gas. Fresh gas and a new spark plug works every time.
I’m a 100% disabled wreck. I’ve built a Gun Truck, maintain 2 M35’s, an M1009, M37, and others. I’m currently refurbing a G506. The thing is, it all starts with one bolt and one wrench. 7+ years on the War Wagon and I’m still tweaking it. It takes me between 2 and 3 days to change a tire. I’m a...
