    We jumped all over your thread like it was a trampoline....and added some real historical info so thanks for carrying the conversation forward. If you don't have spare transmissions laying around, avoid high reverse. We'll check to see if we can find more facts on it. I know that High Reverse...

    Thanks much for that.......it's nearly my birthday truck too. Two days off. The M133 is the Canadian version of cab and chassis, single rear wheels. Maybe some more will come out of the woodwork now but your truck is the first one I've seen in 7 years of hunting. Awesome! As you know we've also...

    You typed M133..........I know they exist but I've never seen an M133, ever, never, ever never...ever. Tell me you meant M133! We'd all like to see the inst and op instructions. How was the installation?

    Where is our man USSR? He's the only one that can get this thread back on track!.......Our news doesn't cover Modern Russian Army photos.

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Just to clarify, the word Aero flot has that rolling smiley because of the letters r o f l . I found out when I researched a Toro flow. Toroflow. Nobody is making fun of Aeroflot.

    G749 Pole/Utility truck This original photo is a truck one of my MVPA mates drove back in the 80's, after service.....drilling wells. The old photo was from a package that he gave me along with the story that the truck is still around, owned by a relative of the original owner. I'd like to save...

    Height Alteration When Adding Flags On Parade Advisory HAWAFOPA

    HEIGHT SAFETY ADVISORY A 'new' thing happened and I'd like to not see it happen again. A last minute flag was added to the Gizmo half way down this parade line. Gizmo is the M135 and the flag was on a fiberglass pole......that's a good thing.......get a fiberglass pole for your flag. Measuring...

    Metal Magnets's M211 teardown and future rebuild.

    A great big huge congratulations on the most recent purchase. I know we're all looking forward to detailed pictures of the drive-train. When you mentioned Clark it kinda tied back with Firefox's photos of the Clark tag on his trans. I'm slowly catching on! The STARTER would need to match the...

    Always keep a fresh fire extinguisher with you when you're working with gas around the deuce. I copied this statement from another site and I can't describe the potential hazard with the Holley carb better than this so compliments of RL at MLU. """""""occasionally a driver would leave the...

    Alberta Canada Trips In Vehicle Events ACTIVE

    Had a long shadow, early morning call to stage 2 1/2 hours before the start of the Stony Plain Heritage Days Parade today. The organizers finally put us with the regular forces so had a chance to get a few pics of some current gear and mingle with the troops. Can't say enough about the local...

    Movie Star

    TP40 is also Hollywood. The Goat did a short highway run to join the local MV team at a small town parade today. We got a real close look at the paint job and the detail is just nuts. To be able to create the aged look takes a special talent...that I don't have. Any artists on-board that can...

    Goat heard nothing I was getting a little stressed keeping it a secret for so long then when you said you were parading it tomorrow, I was REAL happy. Here are a few shots from 2012 before you let it get all rusty.

    1952 M135 W/Winch

    I'm still seeing places on Goose where I missed a few seams and I was shooting 90° at everything I could. There are a few folds on the box and cab where I didn't get down low enough to shoot up into the fold. We're seeing surface rust starting to show up so it's good to hit it again. I did a ton...

    M135 from Salmon, Idaho

    That is the ultimate proof you're working on an Early Deuce! Just when you think you're ready for a road trip the starter, carb, fuel pump, water pump, points, wheel seals, brake cylinders and a few other things will go bad all at the same time. The Stovebolt guys still talk about the 302 so...
