    original vs. restored, how are they valued?

    You need to get a few pics of serial number 11 up for others to enjoy. It was really interesting to get to see the prototype Gamma Goat at the MVPA convention two years ago. It is amazing that something so early has somehow survived. But back to the earlier value questions, even with a red...

    original vs. restored, how are they valued?

    You are asking a difficult question and I would say your truck, at least from the picture looks to be on the upper end of a restored vehicle. I have a 1967 M715 with 16,000 miles on it and except for the canvas, which has been replaced, this is a dead stock, original vehicle, right down to the...

    New Member M38A1 Edinburgh Scotland

    You have a good looking M38A1 there. They are a comfortable and dependable jeep. Have had mine for 28 years with just oil changes, a brake job, and some new tires.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Replaced the windshield wipers. NAPA is having a sale right now on the 14" 60-1450 blades. Don't lose the tapered piece on the shaft that the wiper arm slides on. It is a pain to find another one of those, but if you need to, the ANCO part number is 51-14 and there are two options and you are...

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Mission accomplished. We had 5 vehicles turn out per this invitation. A 1941 Dodge half ton command car, M37, M151, 1965 Abbott, 1984 M923, and there was a M 35 that had to go support the effort of a different group. Will try to put some pictures in tomorrow. Thought for next year, it will...

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Their parking lot is not big, but there will be plenty of parking on Main St. by the time we get back there. And the pizza is decent.

    Usually the group I belong to goes to the Pizza place just east of where we will be staging on Main street. Must be about J or K street and Main. We already have those arrangements in place. If anyone needs me tomorrow afternoon or Saturday morning for questions, call 360 870 0706. I will be...

    Need M1101 / M1102 tarp bow dimensions

    We now have two dimensions, both 1" and 3/4", to add one more to the mix, my two original bows are 7/8" outside diameter. They also have a small crown in the top middle. I have seen a couple of tops on trailers at JBLM where the front bow is a bit shorter than the other bows, but am not sure...

    Need M1101 / M1102 tarp bow dimensions

    This was one of those, I wanted one and got 3 by accident. Need 6 top bows (I can make these but have not gotten around to it) and a top or two would be nice, but Kansas's point is well taken. It is getting to be a bugger to find M101 tops as well.

    My M886 Ambulance

    Saw one a few days ago on CL Seattle. From the pictures it looked like it was in pretty tough shape around the fenders and doors.

    Auburn Veterans Day Parade 8 Nov. 2014

    Message came in from the City and our starting point will be on "H" St. I think due to the size of some of our vehicles, we better plan on being there by 0900. Registration opens at 0930 and I will take care of that. For a couple of the larger vehicles such as the Abbott and if Kurt brings his...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Did the Hella headlight conversion today. And ordered two new batteries. Should be in, in a day or two.

    Oct 25 Saturday Washington Arms Collectors in Puyallup, WA

    Sounds like my truck batteries. Went to start tonight and it barely turned over. It did start, so have it on the charger. It is definitely time to think about some new batteries. If it doesn't start in the morning. Will call and let you know.
