    My M715 'rework' project

    Again, for a variety of reasons, this project stalled for a while, but we've been back at it for a few weeks. Remember the VFD Mad Driller? Well, his rapacious handiwork in the bed had to be addressed with the welder, particularly the holes in the wheel wells which would allow loads of dirty...

    M37 Restoration Project - Revived

    A most impressive setup! Your wiring pleases my somewhat compulsive desire for things to line up neatly. Cheers

    Looking for V100 chassis pics

    Those look very good. I'm sure you have noticed that the doors have the exterior colour painted on the inside. The openings have a thin black rubber seal around the edges to help with water-tightness. Cheers

    Why is my M1008 floor getting so hot?

    The Lizard Skin mentioned above, along with rubber floor mats, helped a lot with cab heat in my M1028A2. Cheers

    Looking for V100 chassis pics

    That new grill does look much better than the kit item. The exhaust scoops may be a tiny bit shallow, but they look fine. I really admire the quality of your work! Cheers

    Fitting Mule In F250 8' Bed

    Mine fit perfectly in the bed of an M1028 (backed in). I'll measure the distance between the wheel wells, and the pertinent parts of the Mule, when I get home this afternoon. We had to stick a 2x12 under the front wheels to make sure the foot basket didn't scrape on the tailgate when closed...

    Here from Maine

    Welcome aboard! That truck looks like it has worked hard, but is in good shape. Are your plans to restore it? Keep it 4x4? Cheers

    Looking for V100 chassis pics

    Pawel, it is a heavy steel cover to protect the steering cylinder and hydraulic hoses. It is 1/8" (about 4mm) thick and bolts to the hull. It should be on all V100s. Cheers

    MVPA-HA Convention Wisconsin Sept.12-14 2024

    Good talking to you today 67B. This is a pretty good show, lots of really good vehicles, including a V100!! Certainly better attended than Des Moines last year. Cheers

    MVPA-HA Convention Wisconsin Sept.12-14 2024

    I will do so! I think this is my 12th convention. I've missed a few for various reasons. Hopefully this one will be better than Des Moines. That was a great venue, certainly better than South Bend (I skipped the second one there because of that building) but unfortunately was very poorly...
