What I just posted on my facebook status:
Brandy and I are home and Missy is out in the parking space. (Yes, the truck's name is Missy). After running out of fuel 3 miles from Gorman, walking half-mile down off the highway to get a 2 gallon can filled up. Made it to Gardena where my bro Dan...
RECOVERY SUCCESSFUL!!!!!
Thanks to area52 (Wade) for taking me, the wife, the puppy, the bike and driving us 580 miles up to Northern California to trade my chopper for the truck and trailer. The man is a true credit and example of the SS board's policy of helping out fellow SS members. Without...
That's a good idea Jonathan! Clipping on a couple alligator cips will be much easier to do in the dark than trying to rebuild that switch with a flashlight in my mouth! lol :mrgreen:
Unfortunately no on a parts truck as this will be my first endevor into MV ownership. I'm picking this truck up as a project and using the M105 included with the truck to build a bobber. Once I have her set up pretty much the way I want her, she'll be a ticket out of California for my wife and...
I do have a 24V test light, and I'm sure I'll need it. If worse comes to worse, I'll also be bringing some spare wire, electrical tape, zip-ties and some crimp-on connectors. I can run a battery lead to a toggle switch and connect to the headlights and runners if need be. As long as the engine...
OK, That's the kind of stuff I'm looking for! [thumbzup]
Now when you say "bump the power switch", do you mean tap or bump the toggle, or reach up under the dash and tap on the switch housing it's self?
OK, I've run the searches and couldn't find anything that pertains to the issue I have to chase down.
Tomorrow (Saturday), I'm heading up to recover my 72 AMG M35A2.
According to the soon to be previous owner, everything worked fine until one day he went to fire the truck up, and when he turned...
Speaking as one who started playing with CB radios at the age of 12, I have some suggestions I can also offer.
Unless you are going for correct restoration on the antenna mount, put it together in such a way that the antenna is mounted solidly and can't move and ground out. Check your PL 259...
The first part of my answer might just be the oddest one yet, BUT, having a deuce is part of the whole "recapturing my youth" thing. Let me splain...
The house I grew up in was 7 doors down the street from a National Guard Armory which I would walk by every day on my way home from elementary...
The bike isn't registered and my DL isn't valid at the moment so my wife is gonna drive the truck back once we make the trade. Also the bike needs a little work done before it's ready to hit the road.
I need to haul a non-MV to go trade it for a MV, so it's not like it's totally non-MV related. I guess if my post asking for help goes away, I'll know why.
I have deal set up to trade my chopped Harley Davidson for a Deuce in Northern california. I was supposed to have rides set up through 3 different people who've all either flaked on me or keep putting me off. I need to haul the motorcycle and 2 people (the wife and I) from Yucaipa to Santa Rosa...
I agree 319! An absolutely awsome museum! I lived in Riverside Ohio right dwn the road from there for a little while a few years ago and loved going there whenever I could. Thanks to oifvet for posting the link to the virtual tour! It really brought back some fond memories! :mrgreen:

As Don (IslandGuyDon) pointed out, waste automatic trans fluid stores more BTU energy than actual diesel fuel, but many people are hesitant to run it for fear of getting dipped and being accused of running untaxed off-road use only red deisel. The Answer My Friends is simple. Get yourself a big...
I have 4 pictures of the 72 M35A2 I have yet to recover that the soon-to-be previous owner took for me on my PC's desktop with a pic of a nice bobber I found online that I'd like my truck to look like when it's done, and a pic from Auto Zone's website of the grenade shifter knob I wanna get for...
Ah, gotcha. If you've never seen the show, it's about a group of survivors of the zombie apocalypse, and thier struggles. At no time in the show, are the zombies actually referred to as zombies. On the show, they are referred to as "walkers". I assumed your name was a similar fan-statement to...
