    M756A2 pipeline construction vehicle

    Hi, That must've been a great fieldtrip! Man that's a great bed. Thanks for posting the pics and contact info, I will see if he is willing to sell parts separately. I should just buy the whole bed but I'm not prepared for the shipping cost. I sent you a private message. Thanks again!

    M756a2 into m35a2c

    Hi, There's no better way to get attention than to threaten to scrap something uncommon, rare and unique! :p Don't do anything hasty there. My bed and sides are pretty rusty but I would never think of scrapping them just because I'm missing a few parts. I do have a front headboard and front...

    Shelter Lifter

    Wunderbar! [thumbzup] Excellent fabrication skills, looks great and I like the large outrigger pads with ball swivels for uneven and soft/wet ground. Thanks for that Haacon link. Did you have the lifting legs galvanized? Post some pics here next time you lift it in the yard or out in the field.

    Nyc vets parade !!

    Parade Pics Hi, Sunday was a great day to give thanks and remember all that has been sacrificed by our Veteran's from all theaters of war.

    M35 Gasser questions

    More IH M5-H6 Bed Pics Hi, Thank you for the pics. Interesting, haha I can't believe someone would lay down steel plate over existing wood decking without removing the wood first. It looks like they added some c-channel here and there for stake pockets etc. and like you said, in the process...

    What is this Tank called

    M42 Dusters in Vietnam Hi, Enjoy these pictures. They show how cramped the fighting compartment was and how ammo had to be pre-positioned creating a cluttered situation. Note too, the great nose art.
