Thanks guys, Chris, it could be gelled diesel, we had given that some thought. It does fire and run. it did cut out once. Bjorn, no I didn't do a search, will do that now. That info you gave should be valuable. Gimpy, thanks if you have a TM # I should be able to find it on Logsa or here.

Thanks much Gimpy!

My XM818 w/w is up in ND with Pilot (Greg). Thanks to Greg and a local diesel shop, it has been prepped for the drive to AZ. It has the multifuel fired personel heater. Greg let me know that it is not putting out the normal amount of heat. With it being about 0 degrees up there, I'm going to...

Dave, I like that picture alot. Little duece poking its nose out there with the big boys.

What a beauty Dave. Convoy lights on an XM818 w/w SWEET!! I'll be adding a set to my XM818 w/w as well. I'll be changing it over to the slat grille. Tube grilles do have a nice, more modern look. I just wish they were a heavier tubing.

Jones, that's why it seemed like the tube type would be the replacement. Much lighter, even flimsy. Rusts easy, does not support the hood well...... The slat type look to be much more labor intensive to produce. A much better piece though IMO.

Ahh, so I may have had it backwards. My tube types are rusting as well. I think that illustrations in the TM's show the tube type as well. Yes, I'm going slat type on all 3 for sure. I really like the look, much tougher & keeps the hood where it belongs.

Thanks Clinto, I had a hunch that David would know the answer. Hopefully he'll chime-in.

Which grille came 1st, the welded flat steel slat type or the tubular type. I'm assuming the welded slat type. I just changed the XM813 to the slat type, I find that it supports the hood in the propper position whereas the tubular type bends over time and lets the hood drop which causes...

Wow, very nice. Looks like a N/A Multi?? Nice straight quater fenders. Please tell us more about its condition and particulars. Added: in fact the entire truck (What we can see in the pictures) looks virtually perfect.

One of my fathers responsibilities durring WWII was to train soldiers to drive M4's & M5's. He stayed stateside durring the war.

Yeeeee Ha!!!

Welcome from Arizona!!!

WWWD.......:cookoo: Still currious about my CUCV:grin::D. . . . , just kidding.

Welcome from AZ. Check your insurance before loading up your team.

My XM816 weighs about 37,000 lbs and will do 56 mph (governed) all day long, in fact 4 days long. Thats how long it took me to go the 2000 miles in it to get it home. It's on 11x20 NDT's.

Hey scooter, I know. I was serious about the questions from people who really don't understand our hobby though. The point I try make to them is; most people collect something, whether its trucks or stamps, it's good to have a hobby.

Merry Christmas everyone;-)

I could also use it to restart the turbins at Palo Verde.

At first I bought it to use on a piece of land we have in Eastern AZ, But it's turned out to be very popular at parades and shows. The engine has a shine to it that is like new. There's an old-timer that used to work at Allis Chalmers that comes to the Papago MV Show. He was very interested in...
