stoney - what parts you need? If I see them laying around the yard I can pull parts.... John Shipley - the last M43 ambulance there was scrapped about 5 years ago, there wasn't much left of it, it was a rust ball. There are a few M880s, some CUCVs, deuces, and lots of trailers there for parts...

I've seen that picture of the deuce before. I can't remember where, or who took it, but that deuce is not a stranger to SS. All I'm saying is I've seen that camper deuce before...

Just to be a picky person - it's TACHOMETER. Not tacometer. We don't care how many tacos you have.

CUCVs aren't really old enough to be "collectable" as far as originality is concerned. I've seen CUCVs that were modified to ****, and brought bigger $$$ than stock ones, as long as the mods were well done and are desirable from a user standpoint. I say swap the doors if you want them, don't...

That's a nice looking deuce you got there!

BTT for air. Love to see more of this truck and its progress...not to mention I'd love to see a video of it driving! Bet it would be pretty great offroad as well...

If he has the receipts to back up the $30K investment, I bet he did. And I also got a bridge to sell him. Like I said - camping trailer bring big money...but not this big. And in this economy? He'll be hoping for a buyer for a LONG LONG time.

Well-made camping trailers bring big $$$, if they include a lot of good features. This one sure does!

I mentioned to Cabell that, due to the recent storm that blew through and messed up all the trees in the Eastern U.S., that it might behoove us to have one work weekend prior to the event, just to send folks into the woods with chain saws and make sure all the trails are good to go. If anyone...

It's a huge truck. There's one on armyjeeps.net for $4,700 in decent shape with the gas engine. That's not much more than scrap price. But like I said, BIG truck. You better have a use, because it will be a pain to use for pleasure riding around if you need overwidth permits just to drive it...

Looks like general purpose power cable for something. The connector is for mil-spec power connections...

That looks like a pretty useful camping trailer. Thanks for not cutting up the old Bantam, they are getting hard to find in original condition.

junkyardwarscrusher had an old M52 tractor with a deuce bed on. It looked sharp, great for offroading too. Here's a pic. Here's what I would do if you want to go that route - get a M818, remove the fifth wheel hitch and the spare tire holder behind the cab. Mark on a DROPSIDE DEUCE BED where...

Looks like a good project! I'd ditch the gasser engine, and go with a multi-fuel...

Scratch that - after looking closer at the pics, it's a M416 trailer, with dual wheels and a wood bed. The 6x8 bed size is larger than the jeep trailer frame, and sits higher to clear the wheels. If it's less than $400, I'd say buy it.

Those are jeep wheels, but the 6x8 trailer bed size is what a M101 is about. I'd say it's a M101 trailer and the owner swapped the axle to a M416 axle, and put dual wheels on it. Definitely Bubba had some fun with it.

Some techies use the word "pron" to get around the filters. But that's just annoying, misspelling words for the sake of either sounding cool or something dumb like that. Ban the word and be done with it.

I'd tow a M416 trailer with confidence. Maybe a M101 3/4-ton trailer but not too much weight. However, since it was welded to the bumper only, you're not going to set any tow records with that thing. Go Class III hitch, and SOON.

Selling the halftrack so soon? Gonna get back into 10-tons or are you planning on getting another project?

I tried posting a thread a while back to find someone with a complete pioneer trailer with all the tools. I never found anyone with one, or found someone who knew someone else in the past who had all the BII items with the trailer. Nice save! There are two types of pioneer trailers, it...
