Good luck with the big haul Andy!! I'm glad everything has worked out so well for you! Chris

Big ouch!!

Ick, thanks Blake. Like I said, I didn't get a close look at it, just a drive-by. Buggy, definitely some 800 parts there. Residue trucks for picking and new parts. He has a VERY nice 813 sitting up front in the sale lot.

Yep, I didn't look too close at it, but while I was passing by, it looked to be pretty straight and complete. Give him a call and see if he'll make you a deal on it Mike :)

Halifax, NC. About an hour down the road from me :D

Hey all, I made a parts run to John Winslow's yesterday to get much of what I needed to get the 923A2 up and running. It was a fun day filled with breaking free rusty bolts, lying on my back in the weeds, knuckle banging, etc... I scored all the parts I needed to put the front end back...

What's with the extra-large exhaust stack guard? Is there a muffler hiding behind that?

Very cool truck Dan! Congrats! I like the desert camo treatment. Are you going to keep the paint the same after you swap beds?

Nice work Buggyman. Sounds like that was just the ticket for your 813. My 923 has an ether kit on it. I have yet to check the cylinder to see if there is anything in it. The wire was disconnected on the valve when I got it. I don't know if that was a depot thing to keep the driver from...

Wow Mark, nice work. Do you have a 251 there that you are taking all of your measurements off of or are you going from blue-prints?

Hey Micah! Welcome to the site and to the world of OD iron. Will your TH400 downshift to first if you floor it as you are taking off? Or will it only lug in 2nd? Does it only do this after you have driven a bit? Or only when cold? What if you go from park to D again? Will that make it...

I'm not 100% set on coming up to Petersburg wed and then convoying to Doswell. I may come up to Doswell on early thursday morning like you suggested. I guess it depends on how my week is going. I may need Wed night to turn some last minute wrenches on the 923 :lol: Either way will be fun...

Jim, I am not actually going to PayPal to look up the donor amounts and dates. PP sends me an email every time the account gets money. I save all of those emails. Some of them got misfiled or something obviously. Thanks for your suggestions. Chris

Great, another Hampton Roads member! We're picking up steam! I'll be joining the southern leg of the East Coast Convoy at Petersburg. If you want to run up with us, let me know and we'll make plans. Chris

Hey Chuck, I do remember your donation, but didn't see it in my PayPal stuff so I overlooked you. Thanks for reminding me and you are now on the list.

Thanks Nick. I'm sure the Mule appreciated the exercise. One of these days you'll have to get someone to run the camera for you so we can see you taking it for a spin :)

I have tried to get all of the donations posted from the last year that I received via PayPal. If you paid with a check or money order, please refresh my memory. If anyone has been left off, please PM me. Thanks.

Hey Kenny, Here's the door close-ups you wanted. It looks to have had another door put on it at some point since the numbers don't match up and the paint is a little different. Also, the door in the bed had a 2.5-ton barcode sticker on it, but the 2 doors look to be the same size. Did the...

Yep, the 40mph speed limit on the 939 series was imposed after a series of fatal roll-overs in the trucks. The convoy would stop suddenly, driver would slam on brakes, the engine would stall during air brake lock-up killing the power steering and the driver would be unable to make correction...

Lots of new donors listed. Thanks gang!!
