    Working on the FV1801A or Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4×4, CT, Austin Mk.1 AKA Austin Champ

    Well the parts truck was not registered with the Champ Owner's Club so I supplied them with the VIN/Eng#s so they can add it. Also gave them my info so they can update the "driver" with new owner location. I've been looking over the parts truck to see if there's anything I can use before...

    Working on the FV1801A or Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4×4, CT, Austin Mk.1 AKA Austin Champ

    I was researching the VIN on the "driver" and came across some interesting information. The Austin Champ Owners Club has a registry of vehicles and this one was recorded as belonging to Steve Hubbard of Yakima, WA. While I don't know Steve it just happens, like this Champ, that I moved to TX...

    Working on the FV1801A or Truck, 1/4 Ton, 4×4, CT, Austin Mk.1 AKA Austin Champ

    Got both of the trucks home today. The "runner" was coated with a layer of oily dust. A quick shot with the pressure washer got it off the metal parts but I'm afraid it might have stained the canvas top. First impressions is that it's generally all there including about 1/2 of the pioneer...

    The definition of frustration is........

    Can’t run ATF in the States as they dye off-road diesel red. If you get caught with red fuel in your tank on the road it’s a hefty, hefty fine.

    This one should be easier to haul around to events than yours was.

    Do you think a RR hood ornament would be out of place?

    Well once again I'm starting a thread on working on a new vehicle. Here's a list of prior threads in case you're interested in my personal brand of madness: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthr...ing-on-the-MKT http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthr...ing-on-the-M37...

    2018 TX MV Rally Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

    Another couple “I’ll bring them if there’s any interest.” Dual gerry can holders (1 holds 2 cans). These take the standard Scepter cans but not “scepter style” cans as they’re about 1/2” too wide. These are NOS and some still in the box. $50 each. I’m sure Bret needs a couple 😎

    Louisiana - State Asking for NHTSA sticker for deuce titled and registered in 2009

    This is why I comment every time someone tries getting around the intent of the TX FMV to save a couple of bucks on registration. Politicians can decide its easier making them all illegal instead of making sure everyone follows the rules.

    LMTV bumper loop?

    They’re for holding the tailgate in the down position when driving. Open tailgate then move the loop over the cargo cover hook on each side.

    2018 TX MV Rally Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

    I have some New In The Box M35 cab reinforcement panels $50 each. I'm not going to bring any unless someone specifically says they'll take one as they're heavy and take up a lot of space.

    2018 TX MV Rally

    Michael, I'll be camping out on Friday night and then attending the rally Saturday morning but probably heading back home Saturday afternoon. I've been promising to come every year this has been going on and looks like I'll finally make it this time just without a MV.

    2018 TX MV Rally

    Mik, I can convoy with you guys but I’m taking my POV not the 1078. Just let me know what time you want to head out and where to meet.

    I have joined the club ! And yes I have lost my mine !

    I’m not bringing the LMTV but I’ll be there. We need to make sure to get together.

    What to drive on a 18,000 mile trip?

    Getting low sulphur diesel in that part of the world is an issue. Getting parts for a LMTV is likely a far more serious issue.
