I was mistaken, it is an M34. I will double check the year and manufacturer. I know it has the lower headlight position and the electric horn.

I have a friend with a sweet 1963 gasser M35. I believe the last gas powered trucks were made in 1963 or early 1964. They were superceded by the M35A1 with the LDT-427 engines.

Stay away from GL-5 in the tranny. I like the good old fashioned GL-1 straight 90 wt. You can usually find it at auto parts stores that sell a lot of tractor fluids etc. It's pretty cheap for a 5-gallon bucket. There are lots of discussions about this and I'm sure somebody will flame me for...

The search function here on SS is okay at best - not to offend anyone. It has been suggested to use Google or some other search engine and type in "steelsoldiers" as part of the search. I typed "steelsoldiers rail train" in Google and got the following results. Check out the second item...

I once rode my dirt bike in figure eights in my back yard when my parents weren't home. The grass was nice and thick, so the bike didn't really leave any ruts. I got away with it until my dad cut the grass real short and the ruts magically became visible again. :(

Carnac could answer at least part of that question. :driver:

Another reason not to flat tow an M151...

I hate to say it, but nopics

If I remember correctly, runners were going for about $17,000 and non-runners were $13,000.

There were also several auctions in Riverside, CA. I went there twice to help friends look at some HMMWV's (all I could afford to do was look). You also had to be a dealer to buy at the auction. All the HMMWV's were Marine vehicles. We found that the nicest ones had the early engines and...

I know I won't be having any B-151. Every time I touch that stuff I make a real fool of myself and end up sick. :roll:

Great! Now that you're in Southern California you can go to http://www.steelsoldiers.com/upcoming-events/72946-dirtbag-fall-2011-a.html [thumbzup]

Family is way more important than playing with army trucks. I pray that your son's medical problems are minor and that he makes a full recovery. Best of luck to you.

The jeep looks great and thanks for sharing the photos - especially the shot of the Corsair at below tree top height.

Good luck on your trip. We are expecting cooler weather this weekend in SOCAL, which should help once you get out here. Send an SOS if you run into any problems.

Are your fuel and air filters nice and clean? Try changing the filters if they're not clean and this should help some. But don't expect miracles...

There is a great NAPA warehouse store in Fontana, CA that specializes in heavy duty truck parts. They give me a fleet discount. Closer to home, I usually buy at Star Auto, a small Inland Empire chain. They are an old-time parts store with long time employees. I use the NAPA in town...

Kendelrio, I hope you have a good reason for towing that butt-ugly Ford home! :-P

:funny:

Very, VERY cool. [thumbzup]
