One more, can't wait for next year!

As usual, had a great time at the Graves rally, even when it's threatening to rain at any time, it's fun! Also enjoyed seeing all the regulars there, the rally gets bigger every year, this year there were over 100 folks there, and dozens of military vehicles in attendance. Syndi had a good...

I'll be there on Saturday only - couldn't get off work to set up for the entire show. But will sneak in there to enjoy the vehicles and see old friends once again. See everyone there!

Sending the $$$ in for Syndi and I on Tuesday, looking forward to camping out and relaxing for a couple days at GML !

Saw John T's truck in Gilbert PA in 2006 - very nicely restored and equipped!

Always have a great time at Aberdeen, rain or shine! The folks I meet there are the best caliber folks you can find, and you can always find neat stuff to go home with. It was great catching up with friends I haven't seen since Gilbert, and some even before that. I sold a few things I didn't...

I'll be there again, Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th, all day both days, in my normal spot, M-2 . Not bringing much to sell this time, just odds and ends, to make some spare change to buy more stuff I don't need for this hobby. :) Items I am looking for: - Coleman (and other mfrs)...

The operator's manual for the Coleman 252-style milspec lantern, made from WWII through 1993. This manual is dated 1945, and covers operation, exploded parts diagram, troubleshooting and basic repair.

Welcome to the addiction, from Virginia. Alaska is a great place to enjoy the hobby, you'll just pay a lot for shipping for all the stuff you'll buy. :)

Now for the things I DID save! Pics 1-2: AN/URR-27 fixed frequency receiver. Receives 105-190 MHz AM, must use a single crystal set to the freq. you would like to listen to. Complete, all there, but seller never used it himself so it's a gamble. Cost was $20, so I'll play with it and see...

Well another February, another Frostfest! Back to Richmond VA to see about saving some military radio gear! FIRST - the gear I saw there but did not buy: Pic 1: Another Collins-made R-390, circa 1951, 500 KHz to 32 MHz. I have spoken at length about them previously, so I won't bore you all...

Solution found, thanks for those who responded!

Wow, the Gama Goats have it this month!

Is anyone from the No.VA/MD/So.PA area going down to the GA rally later in October? I have 4-6 geared lug nut wrenches that may need a ride down there, seeing if someone could spare a little room. Meeting around the I-81/I-66 intersection, or thereabouts.

I remember it wasn't too long ago I met someone who painted their truck with a brush and roller - the results were surprisingly good! I'm not talking about show-grade or anything like that, but I was surprised how good it turned out. Anyone painted their military truck with a roller? What...

Van is packed and ready to go once I get off work tomorrow afternoon. Arriving late Thursday evening, be there till the show's over! Can't wait to see everyone again!

Wow, that's a pretty lookin' truck! You got into the hobby the right way, welcome to the site!

I like that M119 trailer, it's "fun sized"! :) Look forward to seeing the build on this....

Welcome from Front Royal, top of the Skyline Drive....

Syndi and I only had a chance to stop in and attend the rally on Saturday, the one day that was probably on and off drizzling the whole day. Went on a couple trail rides with Kevin and his CJ-8, slipped and slid around on the trails until the crew decided to quit for the day for safety reasons...
