Why not post up a list of the trucks participating with a running tally? That way everyone can see if they are counted, and a large list may provide enthusiasm for some that are hesitant. The more MVs the better this will be.
I would definitely be interested in supporting the Scouts. I think convoying from Zout's and back, would be great, or at least meeting up somewhere and convoying to the Scouts. The more in the convoy, the better.
I decided to take my M35A2 deuce for a drive today. I always check the coolant and oil before driving. When I pulled the radiator cap off, an emulsion of coolant and and oil blew out in my face. Before anyone asks the question, the engine was cold and the truck hadn't been driven for two...
A few of us convoy down to the GA Rally each year and other events as well. Most are from Hiawassee, Blairsville, Blue Ridge and Ellijay. You are close enough to join us if you want - it's a lot of fun.
In Georgia, temporary paper tags are free at your DMV office. Stop by and pick one up. You should also be able to get insurance on the truck before you pick it up by showing the agent the bill of sale from GL. Make sure you order an SR97 form.
A lot of guys are buying M35A3s in Georgia. These are all illegal to title in Georgia as Zout, Swiss and others have mentioned. This has nothing to do with the manufacturer. AM General is a listed manufacturer in the DMV database. It strictly has to do with the year of manufacture. I was...
Welcome to the site. Steel Soldiers has a lot of good guys and a lot of good information. I'm in Hiawassee, almost a neighbor. A lot of guys up here have MVs. Where are you picking the truck up from? Make sure you check out the brakes really good, the most important part of the truck.
Have we reached out to the Georgia MVPA? They have members that are not on SS, but I know some likely have new MVs that may fall into this trap. Perhaps they can send out an e-mail to their members for support.
Swiss,
Send me a PM with your address and I'll send you a check. I previously had major problems titling my 1998 M35A3. It was bounced repeatedly by DMV, but finally went through and a GA title was issued. How's that tank working out?
If you can use it, you can have it for free, just shipping. It's not classified as hazmat so I can ship it UPS or FedEx Ground. I'll let you know what the cost would be.
Has anyone tried burning Sullube compresor lubricant in a multifuel? Tried search, but could find nothing. Someone just gave me 6 gallons of new lubricant.
Lots of family members saved letters from GIs overseas, especially in wartime. Ask if any exist. Also, see if you can look at his discharge papers. I have a deuce that came from the 28th INF Division. I contacted the unit in the PA National Guard and they were very helpful regarding the...
OK, I'll tell the story. Mind, that I was not involved in this until it came time to gut the hog. My son-in-law Chris borrowed my F-150 (fortunately, old and worn out) to hunt out of. I made a feeder out of 4-inch PVC pipe about 4 feet long with a bunch of 1-inch holes along the length and...
Zout, I'm ready! My son-in-law just shot a 350 - 400 Lb feral hog on my property, and there are a lot more tearing the place up. Maybe I can bring a hog to the festivities. He also shot a hole in my F-150 when he shot the hog, but that's a story for another day. At least he didn't shoot my...
I just heard on the news yesterday that all the MRAPS in Afghanistan are scheduled to be destroyed when we leave, apparently none going to the Afghans. It sounded like they were to be destroyed on-site and not brought back to the U.S.
