Looks like your V3's are the upgrade variety - starting out life as MBU-100's and having the modification kit applied.

Lexington, SC had two inches of snow on Nov 1 this year - check the news! It didn't last, and it has also warmed up a bit since then, but ...

That is where an M-36 (17 foot bed) comes in handy. With a 109 box mounted forward, you have a five foot 'porch' in the back and can still pull a trailer without interference. I put an S-280 in my M36, but not all the way forward. Where I have it, there is room to carry 12 fuel cans in the...

Snappy, Back in 2008 we cooked 15 pounds of bacon and 10 dozen (scrambled) eggs in less than a half hour on the GI griddles. I saw Dick Daugird cook 40 steaks at a time on a GI griddle this past March, while visiting Galveston, TX. If you really need to cook a lot of potatoes at a time, you...

New owners were at the MVPA convention in Louisville also.

SWB, you were in the shade, not the sun.

I could be interested in three. 800 series 5 tons use the same top as a deuce, 900 series are 12-18 inches wider but the same pattern.

Yes!

Too simple, and can be expensive, esp relative to picking up parts off a junked vehicle.

Last time I checked it was warbirds, likely his auto-correct did a substitution on him.

Find beltfed34 on e-bay, he usually has lots of parts for MKT's.

I store some of the salt and pepper packets there, as well as cans of "PAM" for the griddle, and some large paper towels, hot gloves and the like.

I'm glad Jeepsinker gave you the standard US English version of that phraseology. In true Southern, it would have come out "We's jes' pickin!" which is not well understood by folk from above the Mason-Dixon Line, much less from other parts of the world.

A power steering unit from a vehicle with a gross weight of 8000 pounds being used in a vehicle with an empty weight of 13,500, and a fully loaded weight of almost 24,000 pounds. What could possibly go wrong? The tire and wheel also weigh three times what the poor Silverado had to get to turn...

I've actually seen an Air Force MKT that had stencils on all of the cabinets listing what went where. Pressure wash with soapy water is probably the simplest way of cleaning. A Steam Jenny (also called a 'hottie' up north as I've been told) will also do wonders on getting everything spotless.

Only food in there, and none of it's cooked. Plus I'm in the middle of the rally, and a lot of people would be ticked off if something happened to their food. The lights stay on in the Mess Tent and at least one in the MKT, so any perps would risk being seen (think tar-and-feather time).

My father had a story about the ETO soldiers who only got as far as Ft. Dix. He took over a company at Dix in late 1946 and found he had over 300 Garands in the arms room, when he had only signed for 168. The extras were from ETO soldiers who got out of the army after VJ Day. And, no, he...

I just close the lock in the tang so the door won't close completely, except when I'm outside. Door usually stays open the whole time I'm at the Rally.

Actually, it's mainly an upgrade of the German WWII kitchen trailer. Our MKT was an odd duck, built to feed 250-300 troops, when most companies are 125-150 troops and battalions are 500-600. It's true that they used two MKT's together for a battalion, but then they developed the CK...

A Jag would never make it to the start of the Devil's Backbone at the VA Rally except via heavy lift helicopter.
