Yes, there's an engine, transmission and it runs. The hydraulics for raising and lowering the bed works too. I've got a replacement cab, which once I get this cast off my arm, I'll be swapping it out. Got new brakes and repair kits for the brake cylinders. 4-6 more weeks and I can get working on...

My M59, still a work in progress.

It appears you may be the winner. Congratulations!

The fork lift is cool and the CUCV is awesome but THE most unique vehicle is the gun truck War Wagon. It reminds us of a war fought long ago by young men who didn't necessarily want to be there but were determined to protect their fellow servicemen.

Part of the Vic 1 intercom.

Okay, all guns installed, chains are connected to all gun pins (3 per gun mount). Last thing to do before the next display will be threading ammo belts into the replica guns. Replica guns and dummy rounds, seems funny to me. And the new grenade shifter nob is installed. I don't know if there was...

I found this today at a sale. Perfect fit on the shifter. Since the gun trucks were customized by the crews, a little customization is in order...

Hi, I'm searching for a pair of 5th wheel spacers for the M52A2 5 ton tractor. As near as I can tell, these were only used on the M52. Here's the particulars: part number 11608882 NSN 5365-00-422-2017 description: 2 steel plates made of one inch material, 5 1/2 inches wide, 31 1/2 inches long...

I obtained these pictures from the web. This truck is the inspiration for my War Wagon. The biggest difference is the armor arrangement. The Original truck was considered a "first generation" gun truck. In truth, there weren't any "generations" per se. The Vietnam gun truck was a constant...

Some additional photos, I've got three turrets now in line with the original trucks. I'm still working on placing the PRC-10. It'll have to be mounted as a "back-up" radio, even tho it's the one that works. First show this year is at the Cheyenne VAMC, 20 May, 1000 to 1400.

I don't think I'll need either one. Between my two trucks I should be okay for sheet metal. Haven't done anything to them all winter cause it was too cold. If anyone is looking for a bed I can point them in the right direction.

There is a 135 bed at the Welding Shop in Cheyenne. I don't know it's condition but it is a 135 bed as near as I can tell. I'll try and get a pic tomorrow. I talked to the guy who owns it and the adjacent 211 bed. He's looking to get $500 or so for each.

Here's a picture of what I'm missing:

I think it's better to say what I do have. Here's some pics of what I have:

I've got 4 of the tubes but I don't have any of the attaching do dads. Do you know if anyone has the sight thingy?

Mounts are installed, all .50's (replicas) in place. Point of order... if you purchase one of these .50's, they will require tweaking to get them to fit. All 3 of mine had to have the rear mount lugs reamed and the external side of the rear lug ground down. The front may need reaming (2 of mine...

Got three new mounts built and bolted down. The pintle adapters are installed but I still need to drill a hole through the pipe and pintle on one of the mounts because there's a hair bit too much movement. Ammo can trays are all installed. Still need to paint the M23 mount and ammo trays. Red I...

Both of my crate engines have matching numbers, pics attached

For the engines in post #40, I can check the numbers the next day or so. Snowing to beat all for the next couple days and they're stored out in the barn. I'll add a note to go out there and check them.
