Wes, That one is in the $500-1500 range. A skilled machinist could make replacement parts out of Delrin to complete it, but it would not be cheap. Mike

Complete, and in excellent condition? If so, most of those old training aids start around $3,000 and can go up from there. Missing parts, or chipped corners can bring down that figure. Depending on the rarity, we could be talking five figures (US$, more in Canadian currency).

It is also an interference with 'interstate commerce' or "interstate travel' on highways that are financed with a Federal Highway Fuel Tax (and state taxes on that same fuel).

Sure, but you will need to lift the engine between 8 and 10 inches off the frame first. Or, remove the front axle, whichever is faster!

Yes. But this year will be the last that I will be heading up that effort. The whole system is (or soon will be) up for sale, all five trucks, five GI trailers, plus the 20 foot spare parts trailer, extra engines, tires, etc. I'm getting too old to do everything necessary by myself, or with...

When you do set it up for 'stationary' use, remember to just set the brakes just with enough pressure to hold because when the MICO (not micro) valve needs to be released it is the additional pressure on the brake pedal that releases it. Otherwise you will have to bleed one of the rear brakes...

There are two 'condensers' in almost every A/C unit ever made. One is to cool the compressed gas that has been turned into a liquid by the compressor (the one in the engine compartment) and the other coil is where the expansion valve unit is. Here the liquid refrigerant is allowed to expand...

Either during or slightly after WWII the military came up with an easy way to distinguish water cans from fuel cans. Water cans have ONE handle, Fuel cans have THREE handles. Not to say that water cans have not been used for fuel, but I hope not vice versa.

Didn't know the deuce had aluminum ones, all I have ever seen is wood and fiberglass. LMTV has aluminum ones. Fiberglass seat rails are available from Stephan Wood Products, Grayling Mi. HTH.

Per the TM, to start an MBU, you may hold the start button in for up to 30 seconds before releasing. If it does not stay going and gives an error, press the stop button, wait 10-15 seconds and try again. After four successive tries, replace the unit and put it aside for maintenance. I got rid...

In the 1950's Army there were three different radio frequency groups, one for infantry, one for artillery and one for armor. The RT's were the 68, 69 and 70. They were all boat-anchors (big and heavy) and had a separate power supply that set next to them connected by a 'dog bone' cable. I...

The same sized tires, but a lower weight rating, were used on the Gamma Goat. That's all I can contribute.

2003 EMP Commission report tested through 2002 model year. Over half continued to run with no issues, most of the rest simply needed to be started again and they were fine. Only three percent of vehicles needed something more and they were post 2000 models. And some of those could run, but the...

States go with the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating), not the empty weight. If you declare a lower weight than the max, you may be able to purchase a license tag for a little bit less. BUT, if you ever get stopped or otherwise are weighed and you are one ounce over the declared weight - let's...

USMC got rid of all the Deuces after the Vietnam experience and went strictly with 5 ton's to simplify maintenance and supply operations. So, the M-36 did not stay in USMC hands very long before it was traded in to the Army for a 20 foot bed 5 ton. That is the story on my M-36 (which had the...
