That is a beaut M1075! Junior, are you talking about the modern trucks like the one above or the earlier trucks? The current trucks are shot with regular CARC 383 Green or 686A Tan or CARC 3-color. I had a 3-color Seabee M923A2 and Bkubu has a Desert Tan CARC 925A2. My Dad's 756A2 is...

I think he's picking both up. He won a blazer that he's getting first and while he's getting it he's going to throw a tape on the deuce to make sure it will fit. Then, he'll go back for the deuce. That's what it sounded like to me anyways :)

I like how you start the post with not beating the dead horse and then you proceed to beat it! This is not the time or the place to debate whether or not GL should remain a SS advertiser. Just because they advertise here does mean that we, the site management, slant one way or the other...

Thanks for volunteering me, Kenny :) Just kidding. I was going to offer anyways. I have to go to Norfolk to pick up 400lbs worth of parts for another member next Wednesday. I think I can handle a couple of tents too. PM me your info.

I was bidding hard on a couple of 925A2's there. Now I'm glad I didn't win them. I'd be in the same boat with Bruce. Sorry buddy. Jason, did any of the GL trucks have obvious GL markings on them? I know most of the trucks I have purchased have had the sale/lot numbers written on the truck...

Even though it is slower than your A2's, it is still a very cool truck. I'm sure the chicks will dig it. You could always put an auxiliary over-drive unit behind the tranny. You'd have to lengthen and shorten some drive-shafts, but it would do wonders for your top-end speed.

Bummer on the top speed, Mark. Does your CTIS work? I have seen a few that worked, more that didn't, and even more that had it disabled.

The tent sounds like a good idea. I'm sure it will be hot and humid so some shade will be much appreciated. I'll get with you a couple days in advance, Rob. We'll figure out when to get there to stake our claim.

Is anyone close to Albany or maybe even going to Albany in the next week that can look at an item for me? Please PM if you can help. Thanks!!

OK, I just talked to the Parks and Rec folks. They don't have any of the big shelters available, but she said they have lots of mini-shelters with grills and even clusters of picnic table with grills as well. They are first come, first serve so I may try to get down there a little early to...

OK, this is really coming together now. Peecook has volunteered to haul his grill down in his 109. I will call the park tomorrow and reserve us a shelter if they have any available. If not, I guess we'll cook out in the grass beside the parking lot. As we get closer to the date, we'll put...

Here's a map of the park: http://www.vbgov.com/file_source/dept/parks/Document/PKS_MtTrashmore_map.pdf I figure we could park across the street from the main office. I'm open to suggestions about where to go to lunch.

Sounds good. Is 10:00 too early? I figure we can get there before it gets too hot and crowded.

You guys want to meet at Mt. Trashmore on August 23rd at 10:00 or 11:00 hours? We could meet there, look at trucks, have a BS session, and then convoy somewhere for lunch. Thoughts?

My 1970 M35A2 w/w was a NA truck. It ran like a raped ape. The smoke plume was a plus too. It ran 55-60 mph from Memphis, TN to Charleston, WV without missing a beat. The WV mountains slowed it down a bit, but not much. I miss that truck.

Any further progress Dirt?

RE: Re: RE: Accessory drive seal leaking bad on cummins engi Will, you are awesome. Great pics and instructions. This looks like another good sticky for the 5-ton forum!

I am moving this to a more appropriate forum.

You guys still interested in doing this? That weekend is coming up soon! Any preference on park, restaurant, or museum?

Great thread gang! I love prototype trucks. I was looking at buying a 939 prototype last year. It had a lot of neat features that didn't make it on the final version.
