This is what makes me nervous. I have limited time from pickup date to get it 650 miles back to my house. I am mechanically inclined and can do simple stuff, but won't have the tools to do a major overhaul, or move about heavy components (like a tranny, for example.)
I've had a couple of...
I won my first with 5143, EUC sent to BC 04/26 (the monday after the auction closed.) Crickets since then. I did email & call GL and they said EUC's are averaging 80 days right now, and I could cancel the sale if I wanted to w/o any repercussions.
So far I have chosen not to, but I think...
Congrat's Mark - nice looking rig, with winch and heater too. Still waiting on my EUC. I'm still planning on shooting you a PM when it comes through, if that's ok.
Not sure how long you've been waiting, but I am 60+ days at the moment. I spoke with Ashley at GL today, she confirmed that EUC's are averaging ~80 days to clear right now.
You should be fine. Might want to disconnect your batteries first. I have a '69 Landcruiser I weld on semi-frequently (suspension mod's, body work, etc) with everything still attached with no ill effects so far.
I suppose it could be different for the duece, but I can't imagine why.

I (semi) recently won a bid on an M35. Currently just waiting for my EUC to clear (52 days and counting) so I can go pick it up. Like many folks mine had the ubitquitous and slightly encouraging 'Starts & runs' description. While doing my wait-research I've read many posts about the condition...
Tks for the replies guys. This is my first pickup, I assume GL will send me the paperwork that I need for the pickup? Is it just the PIF invoice?
Also - will they let you bring a camera? I'd like to document the recovery, for posterity's sake [thumbzup]. I assume that when I contact HAFB...
Anyone that's done a recovery from Hill AFB?
Wondering if they will let you do any work on the truck at the site - i.e. change fluids and filters (just minor stuff, not talking an engine rebuild.)
I bought a 'starts and runs' vehicle, and am crossing my fingers that I will be able to bleed...
