I thought all that Nevada Bunny stuff was about those Bunny Hutches like over around Wells some other spots. I had to read to the end to realize it was the floppy ears kind of Bunnies.

Years ago, I ran across a guy in AZ that had a business that put civi car bodies on Weasel chassis. His most popular was the small Ford econo-line van. Some of his conversion stuff included a biger engine and he claimed as much as 70 mph out in the desert. The engine I saw was a Ford inline 6. I...

I just did a quick online check of the Denver. CO area and the only yard that posts a current price they would pay showed $0.06 per pound for scrap iron. Chicago #1 scrap steel is currently shown as about $0.19 a pound. That price has remained stable for several months. See attached price chart...

Cranetruck, sorry for the delay responding. I have managed some fiddling with the XM791's but the weather and then a raging cold have had me offline for a bit. The rock guard panel mounting holes are behind the forward headlamps on 0001 and about a foot from the outer edge. I would say...

I haven't checked the drum size on my M101, but I have had a machine shop cut the centers out of tubed rims that I wanted to up grade to tubeless I then had those centers welded into a set of tubeless drop center rims.

Are those shop made, or do they look like something the military purchased for the purpose?

Speaking of those wheels, it looks like someone is hedging his bets about which direction the tread goes.

The M37 has a bent right front fender that is bent right at the stock M37 fender line. Zooming in on the grill, you can see the stock hood behind the screen used on the grill. It looks like decent rolled edges to the fender add on's. The headlights look like stock M37 cans and mounts with...

The inner front fender panels are stock M37 and if you look inside the front fender from the rear photo, you can see the stock M37 front fender line. I would guess they welded the front fender flares onto the stock fenders and used lots of bondo. The grill/hood thing is harder, but the hood line...

Way back in the late 60's, I converted mine over to 24v electric. The shaft through the windshield has an outer threaded sleeve with outer and inner jamb nuts to adjust the position of the motor assembly. The assembly is self contained with its own switch. They look sort of like the depicted...

What the TM says ~~ open each page in a new window to adjust the size to suit your eyeballs.

I like the TM part where it says "or whatever fits" on the vehicle in the suggested location. Our M220 had several layers of bumper and body markings in its 55 year tour of duty with the military. Most everthing was 3 inch, but there was some 4 inch as well. The last round of markings were vinyl...

short video of impact wrenching

We have had one in our shop for years. We use it if it fits the application. No problems with the tool. Then again we have a 30 ton shop press we use most of the time. the HF tool is only used for the stuff on something that we can't get into the press. If I am going to abuse a tool I try to...

My son just dropped by to pick up the neat 24 volt DC 3/4 inch impact wrenches we got from Jeep-Jeep. I asked him about the radiator cover and he said that he had removed it to a safe place because he thought there was enough of it left to make a pattern.

I am assured the holes are a part of the vehicles history and will remain. I think she plans on the darker green O.D. of Korea into Viet Nam rather than the later lighter green, but she tells me the camo is going away. Rest assured I have a camera at the ready. If she is twisting wrenches, then...

Odd that you should mention bullets. I do have a few more photos I took today pluss some of my daughter installing her batteries a couple of days ago. There will be more when she starts the engine swap. However, it is her M43 and she will be doing the bulk of the work as well as reporting on her...
