snakehunter- that's exactly the way it happened to me. Like you, I too wondered why nobody was bidding on such cool stuff (then I found how to read dates).
Whether or not it is easy could be debated, but I have bought a couple trucks since January from GL (bidding was easy)- but I still don't...

I should have added that this oil was free. Just the trouble to pick it up- which I did today, and store it (or burn it).
I'll run a tankful thru the deuce and see how she runs. I still think it would be best to mix it, I'm having a hard time getting my head around using WMO in a perfectly...
I just came across a good supply of new motor oil. (Maybe a couple hundred gallons or so.) It's older stuff, mostly 30wt. While I'm sure it's new and clean, I don't want to run it in any of my vehicles as motor oil, so my question is, should I mix it with diesel for the deuce? 50/50?
And since...
You'll find they are pretty good about leaving things alone- and that's some big a** doors to lift up and sneak stuff out. I'll drop you a PM with my contact info. Too bad I don't have my M818 yet- of course then I might have been bidding against you on that trailer:lol:
Funny thing- a friend...
I wasn't paying close attention, saw some guys drooling over the tools inside. I'll try to take a look at it next week, I have some stuff to pick over there. How soon do you have to remove it?
I saw that shop trailer last time I was over at the DRMO- looked pretty nice-- and a lot of good stuff in it. Good on ya'...
If you need some local help- let me know. (I don't have a tractor to pull it (yet))
Dang- that is one good looking truck!
Mark-- thanks, I just got back from a 60 mile drive, truck running good. Wanted to get it up to temp, to check for leaks after doing all the fluid changes. Appreciate all your help making it happen.
Took it to the scale today- I wanted to know the weight...
Joe, if you need help at HAFB (Clearfield), I am nearby. I have storage space, so let me know if you need anything.
Can I ask you what shipper you are using?

I'm guessing that the FL office is handling the sale of the items located in the Virgin Islands. Each item has the location described- seems pretty routine to me.
taco, Welcome! Looks like a nice truck. Hope you'll find this site a great resource-like I have.
You'll need transportation while you're working on the M37- let me suggest you pick up a spare deuce or two...

The best feature about the Chevron 50wt gear oil-
"Extended drain capabilities—Proven field performance for on-highway drain intervals of 500,000 miles and greater."
That equals about 1000 years in the average deuce (500 miles/year- my experience):roll:
Boyce Equipment in Utah has new fiberglass tops. They know how to ship big stuff reasonably. They list these at $595

I make this suggestion because I'm assuming you have a budget for a new top, not a local surplus part.
