I replied earlier, but my phone must be on strike. Welcome from Kansas, if you need anything from down here, I am your man... You have some great SS members in your home state! Glen
I was never in the military, I asked dumb questions, still do, just my nature. I always enjoyed my time here. Great bunch of guys with an unreal amount of knowledge. Maybe 28 years of public service twists my mind closer to military standards? Maybe I was just not bright enough to know I was...
Who needs a big truck to pull a 105? Just get some metal and make a hitch, throw several heavy chunks of iron in and head for the recycling center.... I just hope my family is not around when you do.... Seriously, this was a very poor idea and he should have been cited.
Lights, safety chains...
I do not have a trailer wide enough for a M715. Flat towing will not work with a military bar as the front shackles go through the bumper and I do not have the axle chains. Besides, I am not sure you want to flat tow it, probably had 1967 tires on it still, most of them seem to. Be glad to some...
That will really show people how great the hobby is, overhaul your insurance rates and make your bondsman happy. Not sure you should have anything larger than Prius.
I have Friday and Saturday off if I can be of any help. Been a while since I was in the 715 world. It used to be next to impossible to find a good tail gate, did you get one? I may know where there is one, I also think I know of a good original engine. Glen

Wreckerman is right on the money! He usually is, except when under the influence of the opossum, Elmo....
The light switch may be bad, they have an internal circuit breaker, pull the plug off of the back of the switch and see if any of the connectors have power. I am sure one of the Florida...
When the age of hydraulics hit the rescue trucks, they started doing some amazing stuff at accident scenes. I was at an accident scene where two intoxicated young men slid an old 455 Grand Prix sideways into a tree in excess of 50 mph, I was sure they were dead. The dust cloud was enormous and...
Kansas Adjutant General's Department - Crisis City
The above link is for Crisis City, a National Guard project southwest of Salina on the old Smoky Hill AFB Bombing Range. Crisis City has a train, some collapsed buildings, rubble piles, etc for training first responders. I heard there was about...
I have some of the original seats and a load of stuff headed to Nebraska. Let me know if that is what you need. It will be bouncing north on US81 one of these days. Glen
