My wife's latest purchase is a 1983 AM GENERAL DJ-5 mail jeep.
Not Military but it is cool.
Apparently from what I've read AM GENERAL took over the contract to make dispatcher jeeps around 1971 and ceased production in 1983. Over that time they used a wide variety of power plants. This...
I recovered my first M274 mule yesterday. It had been sitting behind a barn under a lean to for some time. According to the data plate its a Marine Corps 1969 m274A5. After a few hours of pulling the magneto and retiming the engine ,as well as some new gas, the wife and I were cruising the...
I recently won a M923a2 and it only has the spin-on engine fuel filter. The Police department that had this truck before me cut the line going too the primer on the engine and put a cheap plastic inline filter to act as a pre-filter. I will admit there was some rust in the tank but Ive solved...
Im wanting to buy a siren from a guy there but he won't ship, I would love to get it put on a pallet and shipped to me. If anyone can help that would be great.
Thanks

Picked up this trailer today. It has a huge hobart welder running a generator. The welder has a flathead Willys Jeep engine & it runs. Not sure what vehicle the box came off. M37 or M715 maybe. Fuel door is on the drivers side. Looks like the box is 1968 dated.
Drove all the way to Tobyhannah Pa. to pick up this wonderful S-250. I needed a larger shelter than the the one i have been using. With this one I can fit a full size mattress for the wife and I. We were previously both sleeping on a twin. Very tight quarters. I have about 30 days before the...
Friend needs a good tranny for his deuce to make it back to Ohio. Can Any help? If so call Greg Henderson @ 586-855-3994 With price and location. Otherwise he"s stuck.

Recovered 2 more 1952 M38A1's today that I ran across a while back. One runs and one had the engine in the back. White Jeep is ser.#2866 Might take them up to Jeep Fest in Jasper Ga or maybe Ill keep them. I really don't know. I mean how many Jeeps does one person really need? This makes 5 now I...
Next weekend is the annual Jeep fest in Jasper GA. It mostly consist of civy jeeps but there are always some military models mixed as well as some neat farm variants. A lot of off roading and a lot of fun. They have multiple trails as well as obstacle courses.
Join us for 3 days of Jeep...
Just last Saturday the wife and I towed her Jeep 500 miles from Atlanta to Tampa with no issues thankfully. It tracked and rode perfect. Heading back tomorrow wish us luck.
Found a used in cab transmission hoist. Can anyone tell me what they usually go for? Wondering if I should buy it? No legs but it looks like it just uses pieces of pipe.
Purchased Old Civil Defense Air Raid Siren
Looking to see if someone can P/U a old air raid siren from New Libera, LA
Also if it can be put on a pallet and shipped or if anyone is coming to the GA rally if they could deliver. Don't think its that heavy / just bulky.
Thanks everyone
Proud to say that my wife's M1009 was the gold winner at this years national MVPA convention in Louisville KY. Time was running out and we almost didn't finish in time to get it to the show, but we made it. I was so proud of her and her truck I just had to put a few pics out there.
