Here's a pic of a couple others I took a few years back at my friend Bernie's place. You can see the yellow CD version, another less flashy version is on the left.

Some more from Wikipedia: "The Gonset Communicator was a series of vacuum tube VHF AM radio transceivers that were widely sold in the 1950s and early 60s. They were designed by Faust Gonset and manufactured by the Gonset Division of L. A. Young Spring and Wire Corp. Models were built for...

Only two weeks to go, gentlemen. Hopefully this cold spell will break a little bit on the day of the event. I remember in past years, a couple times I got there and the parking lot was half-full of ICEBERGS!

Yes, the Gonset Communicator came in several versions, and several paint jobs, but it was common in use during the 1950s and 1960s. The yellow CD paint job is by far the most catchy, and the most sought-after of the Communicator series.

Anyone?

The HEMTT and PLS series trucks are LONG and often tow trailers. Perhaps the reason they have the wide west coast mirrors, is to allow the driver to see wide around the back around when towing, much like you see with pickups that are towing horse trailers, etc. I agree, though, a narrower...

Have this listed for sale, someone is interested in it. However, other than the info on the data plate, I don't know much about it, and Google isn't much help either. It appears I have the only one known to man. :) Anyways, here the info on the data plate, and a pic - if anyone has had...

Took me a couple hours total to do the job of repainting the front cover. Don't make it harder than it has to be. Take off the knobs and covers, tape over the stuff you don't want to paint, and spray bomb the rest. When it's dry, peel the tape off, re-attach the knobs (if they need to be...

Heck with Valentine's Day. But hope everyone has a great time getting together for breakfast and talking about MVs. Hope to be there again one day.

I'm in - I think this time it was a coin toss between Rausch Creek and Knob Creek, but RC won. Like I said, haven't missed one yet...

I'm already making plans for attending Haspin this year, I always have a blast! Daughter's last day of school is the 11th, and then she immediately has to go to her mom's place in Georgia for several weeks, so not sure exactly when I will be there, all depends on how we work out the school days...

Was wondering if the early deuce wreckers, the M60 and M108 series, had double frames or more reinforcement in the frame, or was it just a wrecker body sitting on a standard deuce frame? I know the 5-ton wreckers are double-framed or strengthened more than standard 5-tons, but wasn't sure about...

shenkmen is going to announce a date within the next day or two. He has a full plate, but he PMed me about it so he hasn't forgot....

Try AB Linn on eBay, I think his user ID is ablinninc. He had piles of -715 stuff for years, not sure what his stock is like now, last -715 stuff I ordered from him was in 2007 or so. -715 parts are where you find them. There never really was a "go-to place" for parts for this series, they...

Absolutely. We find the defendant, shenkmen, guilty of crimes against culinary taste, and hereby sentence him to a lifetime of eating burnt scrapple and NA beer.

That's a great looking rig you have there! Always liked the -246....

Couple pics I found from years (and threads) back, might help a little.

Glad to hear the GSA has started selling the Goats again! Congrats on your new "goat herder" status!

One of the most beautiful M332s I have ever seen, great work fixing her up!

That's a GREAT looking trailer there, you should be very proud of your hard work!
