Yep I was starting the rebuild of my other 890 for the Alaska trip and realized there wasn't a straight panel on the truck and had some serious rust in a couple of places. So thought this would make a good one, 13 months left to get it ready.
Dear great lighthouse in the darkness please help me find the path to the history of my latest MV.

David it was great meeting you and Shanon, always good to finally meet someone who you have been talking to via puter for over a year. She was a real trooper to put up with all of us. If we are lucky enough for Dewayne to have a fall rally I am thinking about dragging my KCLFF down and having a...
Just got out of the shower after the 190mile trip home. All I can say is thanks to dctrack44 Dewayne he is the hostess with the mostess! All you guys and gals who didn't make it to this one need to make sure you can come next time. Dewayne opened up his 1000 plus acres with over 40 miles of...
""What's with all the negative waves Moriarity" treysoucie you did good, just over a year ago I paid a premo price for a reworked M105 just to get the new LED tail lights off it for my M818 before these cheaper ones came out. Anything under what others are still paying at the parts store or...

Bike carrier
I wanted a way to haul one of my mil bikes without having to use a trailer. Had a 20% off Harbor coupon plus they had their 400 lb max receiver hitch bike rack on sale for 133. Didn't want to add a receiver to the M1009 so got 2 hunks of 2X4X3/8 and 2 pieces of 1 1/2 X3/8 square to...
I still don't no for sure if I am off or not, but I am planing on driving down Friday evening in the M1009 with a bike on the back. I got the steel cut to fab it up just need the time to weld it up.
I think it would have looked better if you had BOB'd it into a wheelbarrow cart!
I trust you know I am kidding and really glad some folks take the time to preserve our history.
Won a small lot from GSA at the DOE at Ft Chaffee and needs to be picked up in the next 2 weeks. It will fit in the front seat or a car and weighs about 5 lbs. If you are close or are going to be there in the next week please send me a pm. Thanks in advance
