It's been 20 years since I last turned wrenches on or drove a Goat all of which brings back mixed memories.
Goats did not have power steering and a 3-53 would (from memory) have a big ole' valve cover sticking out the top. Also, the layout of the fan and accessories is not right for a Goat...
Addressing things in order:
The condition code is assigned by the military unit that turns in the item, no one else. By regulation, it cannot be changed by anyone else regardless of the "real world" condition of the item. Units are specifically cautioned to not under-rate property but in more...
The M41 is Jack's.
It's a Central America bring-back.
I know it's too rich for my finances.
Household 6 is a pretty good pistolero and if I tried to buy something like this it's even money as to whether she'd shoot me or give me a vasectomy with a weedeater.
I'll ask if he's got any...

We have 4 empty bedrooms, 5 couches and a two story cabin back in our woodlot. We've also got a large (6,000 SF plus) shop if you need it...
I'll be traveling with a friend as vendors. He owns the LZ Army-Navy store in Auburn, NY and speciallizes in "real GI" particularly WWI through Viet Nam field gear. If we take anything OD it'll be a CUCV with an M101A1 trailer. I-81, snow and dueces or 5 tons don't mix well. I don't know what...
Hello, I'm new to the site but am guessing that this is the place for this question.
I'm looking for a "Spring, heat control" PN 7410093 for the vacuum heat control lever for a Continental AO-895-3 engine for an M41A1 tank. Any help with either finding the part or info on any dealers or...
