    2 M37s Saved from the scrapper

    The "37's" are out there, I've got a couple of my own that I just need to get here from where they've been living and hiding for awhile, and there is another that some guy south of here has sitting out in his back yard, guess its supposed to be a parts truck for one he has in the barn. But even...

    Highland Raiders

    Good footage and never saw it before. Really like the background music. Never saw that many trucks at one time. Really classic stuff, but the stuff nightmares are made of too.

    New Guntruck

    How come all the builds on these seem to be out on the east coast? Guess we'll just have to get over our financial bashfullness and get our build of Godzilla underway.

    The Untouchable rebuild

    Keep up the good work guys, we're still working on a recon. of "Godzilla", Not the most impressive gun truck, but has a meaning for me. During a rocket attack in country, a couple buddies and I had been trying to drown our situation in "jungle juice" and were wondering what would make the d---ed...

    LiveFreeOrDieTryn2B may need assistance

    I'd called and left a message that if he has any issues while within the western Ohio area, he can let me know, just got a voice mail to leave the message. There's a few from our "group" that can help with a break-down. We do it for ourselves all the time. Though right now, I think my towbar...

    Retired in Florida

    Really nice looking Dodge, there are none in that good of shape up here. And even trying to find decent parts for the 880/890 pick-ups is getting very difficult. Wish somebody made aftermarkets for them. Could use a new floor in the bed and front fenders on one of mine. Nice truck, doesn't...

    New Score!! Stackable Army Cots!!

    Had that same problem at Findlay one year, and then during the night it got COLD too. So while I always wondered what everybody was towing those trailers for, the closest I get to that kind of camping anymore is Holiday Inn Express..... I'm just too old and beat-up and old uncle "arthur"...

    Cleaning fuel tanks

    This has been a good thread, I've got to clean the tank in my M-54, and was afraid I'd have to do something drastic. Its really screwing up the injector pump pressure and my speed.

    Cckw vin #?

    You might look under the dash over the hump for the transmission, there should be a data plate there that has everything on it including the manufacturer. I know mine is a CCW, not a CCKW, but when cleaning out all the farm trash and mouse turds, I found it under there and also learned my truck...

    M332 Sacrilege, desecration and carnage

    You and lacoda56 can both rest assured as can we all that we're on some federal list. But they may find their plans for us harder to accomplish that they think. Sounds like your planning on having some fun with your trailers. Can't say as I'd want to be taking a 'motorbike' any distance at...

    the other woman

    bcowanwheels has always provided me with quality parts at fair prices for what I was looking for. He's got quite a collection of the 715/725 series stuff. One of these days I've actually got to get down there, I need some parts that probable will not ship well, (like a front cowl) or even...

    Need broken axles

    Yeah but even THAT didn't make the stuff any better to eat. Most of that stuff even the VN's wouldn't take.:)

    M-725 common engine swap advice

    As you've seen its pretty much what ever your pocket book will take when it comes to swaps on the 725. A friend of mine in Hastings, Mich. has never found an M-725 he wanted to leave stock, even asked me to let him do a swap on one of mine. (like I need a 725 that does in excess of 70 MPH....)...

    A very old junkyard

    Three thousand, Might have to sell my CCKW, it is in somewhat better shape, though I've yet to start the restoration. Might get a chance this year, the cancer surgery has slowed me up considerably, and that truck is on the top of the list now. But that price for a GMC in that shape...

    Apaches emergency-landed in my county!

    So somebody else reads the flight safety mags eh??? "Grampa Pettibone", and I'm not even from the aviation community, ""Fly Navy, Divers Need The Work". I read/read them to keep up with what I might have to face while swimming with them to pull a pilot from on that thinks its a submersible, or...
