Welcome to the crew. Looks like you are a bit out of the way up there in Newport. We are having some vehicles at the Puyallup Fairgrounds on Saturday starting at 0800, for a military appreciation day. You would be welcome to come over and hang out. Neat looking truck.

Will pass it on and we will talk before hand about me being there. Once in awhile my wife thinks I need to do house stuff. She isn't very caring and sensitive about that sometimes. P

Way to go team. Great job Aaron. Good to see old faces and new.

Are you filming on Saturday? I could bring a few things, scythe, pitchfork, jug. Am working on the hat, but may strike out on that.

The 1st Sgt. and another M813 will be meeting with me for breakfast Sat. morn at 0800 in Centralia, then we will head over to get with the crew for the parade. Not sure what I will drive, but it will be green or tan.

If there is interest, sometime after the parade, we could go to Peter's toy store in Centralia. Never know what treasure you might turn up there. It is probably about 12 miles from Aaron's. 622 N. Tower St., Centralia, WA 98531.

Thank you for the engineering and tech tips in this thread. I have an 84 M923 with Goodyear 11x20's that are 10 years old with 6,000 miles. I like to run at 50 to 53 for fuel purposes, but the truck will creep to sixty if I am not watching it. The truck proof tested a deer at 50 on the way to...

This next week. You might look at Post 1 for further details.

Do you still have the broken speed out in there? If so it will be a bugger. If it is out, Sometimes you can have some luck drilling all the way through with a small bit and then running a tap through that hole, mostly to weaken the sides of the stuck bolt. You should then be able to get it...

Well it looks like it is an uncut body. Can't say that about mine.

There shouldn't be any conflicting info. Parade starts at 1600. It is still all the same timeline as the opening post. The only variability is when we actually go over for lineup. We will try to lineup by age of vehicle. So far it looks like five 5 tonners. and then some small vehicles...

How about a different classification and perhaps this gets away from the original hypothesis, but, Original, Restored, and Reproduction. There may be carry over in all those categories. My 42 GPW has a few repairs to the body and whatever parts it takes to keep it running. It is a restored...

Will see you Saturday morning. The M38A1 started acting up on the way home from the airport Sunday and it does not want to run smoothly, so am working out those issues. Hopefully it will be under control by Saturday. The ambulance, 923, M715, and M54 are all doing fine and should be on track...

Yes we are doing Borst Park. Please take a look at the upcoming events for particulars. 0800 at the Park for breakfast, then display, then lunch, and then parade. P

923 is from the 224 Eng. OR ARNG. There is another 923 here in town that is 4 numbers off mine. Recently spotted a 923A2 off Bishop Rd. in Chehalis. It is desert tan too. Have not seen anyone around it to stop and talk with.

The Ocean Shores event went well and they fed us hotdogs. We had 4 vehicles, M923, M923A1, 43 GPW, and 53 M38A1C. Found out that my 923 went to Iraq in 2003 and maybe 2007. Met a SFC from the unit and he clued me in on some of the history. Also got to see what a happens when a deer and 923...

Depending on which plates he got, that is not a yearly fee. It is probably the initial license with title transfer, plate, possibly sales tax, and a Gross Vehicle Weight fee. Once you can get collector plates, there are no more fees.

Talked with the lady that is organizing the event today. The address for the pool is about 521 N. Pearl St. Centralia WA 98531. I would like to have us positioned and in place by about 1000. We will most likely be on the asphalt between the pool fence and the back of the sidewalk. Hopefully...

Moderator, please take that file off. It loaded okay on my computer as a Word Doc, but for some reason it did not transfer right for me. Sorry.

Hello Team, got a request in for this one today. If anyone is able to attend, their service is at 1100 and parade at 1300. Lunch will be provided for parade participants. The town is not big and neither is the parade, but they have heart there. The 1st Sgt and I did it a couple years ago and...
