I don’t have any pictures, however, if memory serves me correctly, there were improvised gun trucks used in (no particular order) Beirut Lebanon, Panama and Desert Shield/Desert Storm. They were also used by various “teams” that were running around various places where the local population...
Also, coming up to Wyoming of I25 is a placed called Terry Bison Ranch. There is a cab and chassis towards the south end of the property. I know nothing about it except you can see it from the Interstate. There may be a second vehicle just as you enter the property. Terry Bison Ranch is set up...
I’m having a brain fart once again... there’s a gentleman in CO, Ft Collins maybe who converted his 109 into a gun truck by removing the shop section and installing a A3 bed he bought from me. If you check the gun truck section, you should find his name and contact info. He had the shop section...
Installed a brand new Rampage model K-4768QAM/FM cassette player. Found it new, still in its bubble pack. Then I found a box of Christmas cassettes. Now I've got a real system that shouldn't fry my batteries. Also getting the truck Christmas lights functioning again. Last year I fried the radio...
I figured it out. Because this truck has a 318 V8 made between 1957 and 1966, the mechanical linkage will not fit. The previous owners solution was to install a hydraulic clutch. He used a M37 master cylinder, about 3 feet of aircraft grade hydraulic hose, some fittings and a second hydraulic...

:jumpin::jumpin::jumpin:, lol, I could use the help cause I think I'm going to do some digging to get it figured out. Oh, don't worry about the rain, 'cause it's darn cold out there!
Still trying to get the clutch working. The fork doesn't move at all when the pedal is depressed. Getting all the panels off is proving to be a PITA. The massive heater is in the way but I'm not sure how to get it out. Fun, fun, fun. I'm about ready to push it out of the way. I gotta get the...
Yes, the smoke is slowly getting under control. The initial roughness is almost over. I'm still tweaking the carb. I wonder if it was common practice to put Motorcraft Carbs on Chrysler engines?
10-ish. 6 deuces, a 5 ton M52, 1944 1 1/2 ton Chevy, M1009, M37. A couple shelters... I'm forgetting something.....
now i remember, a XM105E3, a M101A1 and a shelter carrier.
It is alive!!! She's smoking like a coal fired freight train but she runs!!! Still need to check the cooling system but the fuel is working (from a small temporary gas tank).
