For anybody who might remember some 1980's commercials..THERE'S THE BEEF..... nice..most will probably want something less because of not needing it to be dual purpose but what you did looks like it would really help!

A frame mounted roll bar (ahem...heavy duty light bar) behind the cab would be a good idea. As far as how to do it , what material to use and such, I would just go with an old saying my neighbor told me when I was a young lad. He, who is a fellow farmer, was building a staircase one of the...

Was the gray paint under the yellow-black pre-resto paint or how did you find out how to restore it? Very cool post and I hope the right people get wind of your story to get you the history of that great MV. I'm betting you will find that history before too long. :)

Conveyed my feeling as well. Wow..........RIP Shootiniron

Ya, you can't beat a good milkshake on a hot summers day. :)

Not sure if you need to be told this but a good step to recovering that 109 right now would be to download the TM's and read read read. try and get a knowlegeable as you can before you take off. The brakes are key. Be a good idea to get a primary fuel filter and some DOT 5 fluid.. Download...

1. By all means YES. Dot 5 needs periodic replacement. 2. I would download the TM'S for details on the bleeding procedure. Lastly I will post 2 links that provide a wealth of information on the different types of brake fluid that you mentioned. I continue to site these 2 links when this...

Welcome from Mn. See how easy that is other lurkers? Sign up and say Hi. Great hobby and good luck with the trailer work. :)

my delicate and dainty posterior feels like it is in the embrace of a roll of charman on a foundation of happy clouds! You dont often see that said about driving an MV :)

Looks like a nice A3! Sounds good and reliable too. Congrats on the good recovery

What a great time to break the chains (way over priced and not readily available) of the DOT 5 brake fluid and use a decent dot 3-4. Just something to ponder. Here is a thread on the subject. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/69120-dot-3-vs-dot-5-a.html

I would like to see 13000.........roflrofl Sorry that was a lil mean...Westech answered the question in post #2

Try e-bay with a reserve of your choice or high starting bid that you would sell it at. Who knows till ya try. Just make it nice and clean and take good pics. It would be interesting to watch

-- would I be right in assuming this is just for the vehicle you are driving into the base? In my experiences, Yes you are right to assume that. As far as the rig you buy, they want a paid in full invoice and you can drive it home.

Yeah I have been noticing the gl prices on A3s at sparta have been dropping alot. Probably saturating the area too much. I was there a couple of weeks ago and they have a butload of them lined up yet. Some are probably sold and holding for euc, but there was a bunch of em.

Thanks for the questions and reviving the thread for awhile you guys. I havent been working on the truck much since April when we were having problems getting into the field to plant corn. Now its the latter part of June and the corn and beans are coming along pretty well. Hoping to get some...

Yep, better safe then sorry. Clean em up

He sold it to another member. Details within http://www.steelsoldiers.com/salvage-yard-info/68497-817-going-scrap-yard.html

No takers yet on this thread? I too was curious if someone did some 5 ton dual circuit work. Nothing turned up in a search. Maybe you will be the first to do this?

Nice looking truck! How many of them do you have?
