For your first "exhibit" I would buy an 818 tractor and one of the expandable van trailers. Gut the trailer, and make it a museum with exhibits they can walk through. Ask for donations for entering, and put some nice displays about local military history inside. At the same time ask for $1...

Fundraising for everyday stuff is hard. Getting folks in the door is hard. I would start small- with a traveling exhibt you take to airshows, fairs and such. A few vehicles and the means to move them. Work some events, see how much money you can raise, see how many volunteers you get that...

Wait. Government Liquidation took a truck that was already sold in Atlanta and shipped it to Warner Robbins????? Talk about incomptetent. I am sure the taxpayers paid for that shipping as well. How much governmnet money was wasted taking a truck a customer had already paid for and paying...

As someone with some swiftwater rescue experience- planning to drive through flood waters is suicide. The water is often swift, and will carry your entire vehicle downstream quickly. The roadways often wash out, and the 3ft ford can become 10ft instantly as you go ahead. You can't see the...

Lift from underneath, don't go far enough under, and the ends of the forks lift on the transmission instead of the far frame rail. The transmission would be holding half the weight of the truck- and quickly fail.

Yep, I heard the news brief yesterday that just said "Military truck runs over car in Greenville" and jumped on the phone asap- my unit is in Greenville and I wanted to make sure it wasn't one of my guys.

It really is sad. Sad first because the damge is 100% preventable. It is 100% the result of either lazy Government Liquidation employees not willing to take the 3 extra minutes to do it right or Government Liquidation employees using equipment like forklifts they are not qualified and/or...

It is legal to export a CUCV if one gets the proper approval from the State Department. In fact it is done all the time.

Anyone got 2 wheels and tires for these you want to part with?

No way. That is 100% forklift mangled.

Typical Government Liquidation story. They destroyed the truck with a forklift. Then they tried to give you the wrong truck.

I dunno. Their contract is not forever, and has to be rebid and won again when it runs out. Bad press hurts that, and bad press can be used by others shooting for that contract to show that Government Liquidation fails to live up to what is required in the contract. Complaints to DRMS, the DLA...

I agree. The CB crowd loves to run twin antennas thinking it gives them some gain. twin 1/4 antennas, in free space, fed in phase, with the proper spacing will indeed provide a directional pattern. But his are not 1/4 wave, not in free space with that metal between them, and not spaced...

When talking about GL problems, we should all type "Government Liquidation" not "GL" Simply typing out "Government Liquidation" instead of "GL" can change how seriously our complaints are taken. It seems silly, but putting the full name in there will make a difference. When we all say GL, we...

The 800 and 900 series trucks were produced after the use of radium guages has stopped, so they are assumed to be free of the deadly menace.

All M35's now must be check for radioactive guages before they are sold- I would bet that is just how it was marked once checked.

If I had a HMMWV it would be on by now! I have actually deceided to sell it. I don't need the tools, and if I trailer mount it that will take up the parking space I could put a truck in- and I would rather have the truck. HMMWV Contact truck body with tools, welder, compressor - Steel...

This is a common problem with Government Liquidation. I had them default me on an auction claiming my card was declined. That was an outright lie, my bank showed me that the funds were available to cover the charge and that at no time had GL attempted a charge. They told me that if...

[/FONT][/COLOR] The IP will pump fuel through the injector lines when turned in either direction. The lift pump is electric, so it will pump as long as it has 24V. In essence, what was the compression stroke becomes the power stroke, and vice-versa. [COLOR=#928f64][FONT=Verdana]The trubo...
