    My New XM816

    Well here's a couple shots, sorry they're not very good. I had a tire go flat on the wrecker. While I was there, I got a couple other shot as well. M275A2 with M128A2C Connected & the M52A2. The MEP006A and the M200A1 I picked up at Barstow last week can be seen as well.

    Wrecker Light Bar

    Kenny, gotta love those kinda deals. I would have had a hard time paying $400. The XM816 is an awsome machine. I've been so busy I haven't spent much time with it yet. It's got 22,000 miles on it and runs real sweet. I put 2000 of those miles on it driving it home. It got a new CARC paint job...

    Wrecker Light Bar

    These are truly rare, so $200 for a new one is worth every penny to me. My wrecker was pretty well outfitted when I picked it up. Wiffle tree, chains, 3 asorted snatch blocks, Air line, Ground Spades, Ground Support Bars, Relector Set & much more. I was about to start my search for the light bar...

    Wrecker Light Bar

    I bought some great tow bar parts from him in the past. When something wasn't right once, he fixxed it fast! He's an honerable and great guy to deal with. His Ebay Store is always a treasure hunt!

    Wrecker Light Bar

    I scored an NOS Wrecker Light Bar for my XM816 last night from Austin Aviation. Considering the rarity, $200 was ok. My wrecker came with the light cable. :D :D

    M35A2C's with Winch... A rare breed?

    I was at the Marine Corp Logistics Base in Barstow today. There was an M35A2C w/w there in GL's yard. It had the correct data plate. Nice truck, rocker panels on cab are rusted out though.

    Boarding Ladders

    I went to Jack's yesterday to get a few things. Jack let me know there were some ladders in some 6 Ton trailers that just came in from Fort Huachuca. I bought 3 boarding ladders, in the photo below the ladder on the left is the impossible to find and long sought after M128A2C boading ladder that...

    lube trailer

    That'll look nice in 3 Color NATO. 23 or 15 scfm is fine with me. I need to be able to turn my 1" impact (Harbor Freight Special :D ). I like that 175 psi as well. I'll be curious to hear your report on how loud they are after you get it fired up. Maybe you can find one for parts for that fuel...

    lube trailer

    It does help, thanks. I'll be able to determine the model number Saturday. I assume the model number is on the data plate? I Like yours, most of the ones I've seen still have the 4 color MERDC on them. I 'm hoping mine is in 4 color as well. I believe these are a great way to store and...

    lube trailer

    I'm picking up a lube trailer this Saturday from Jack as well, he knew I was looking for one and bought it from GSA. It's supposed to be complete, I haven't seen it yet. I've been actively looking for one for about a year. I'll post pics Saturday night. Jason, did you find the TM on LOGSA? Is...

    End of Surplus sales? Received the attached today.

    I met with GL reps in Vegas last August. I asked if they were involed with or knew about these letters. The answer was affermative. GL has already been hurt by the closing of most DRMO posts. Any company with a payrol and earnings expectations will fight for every last dollor that is profitable...

    XM757 climbing out of its nest

    Congratulations Bjorn! That's a magnificent piece of equipment. Looks like many new fittings and an external filter in the heater pic. The different turning characteristics of each front axle can be seen in the second picture as well as the articulation of the rears. The color and Vietman era...

    End of Surplus sales? Received the attached today.

    Demil B & Q About To Be Shut Down? I received this letter this morning. Did anyone else receive it? I contacted John Kyle's office and was transfered to his liason. I was told that I could call back in a few days for status and that the Senator would be interested in this. The letter is below...

    Max towing capacity of a M35?

    David, I agree whole heartedly. We ALL have an immense responsibilty to operate safely when on public roads. As I said in my earlier post, we should all be aware of the increased scrutiny being placed on our hobby (I know some use their trucks in their business) as well. And, as HMV owners I...
