    2011 GA Rally Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

    Does anybody need any M101a2 parts? I'm keeping the bed, tongue, and lights, and the springs are already spoken for, but have surge brake parts (shoes, drums, hardware) heck I can even bring the entire axle if somebody wants it!

    M35a3 seed

    Don't these have a 1:1 transmission? If so, then I would say converting over to an overdrive transmission would be your best bet. NOT the cheapest admittedly, but the best.

    2011 GA Rally Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

    I'm in the market for canvas, bows, and sides for an M101-series trailer (enough for two trailers). Also looking for a rear bumper from either an M880 or an M1008, WITH the pintle hitch. I'm in the process of building a "Poor Mans Cushman Airborne" that I might be willing to trade for or...

    Lizard Lick

    Forgot all about those "title loan" places. Don't think that's legal here in NC. Cross the border into SC however, and I know you'll see signs for 'em on every street corner.

    And what financial institution would actually grant a loan on a 27 year old Blazer? Sorry, I gotta call BS too.

    CCKW 3-53T and AUTO.

    Can't wait to see this thing finished and moving under it's own power! Should be good to go for ANOTHER 60+ years when completed.

    Official 2011 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    I'm gonna be there! Don't have a big, cool miltruck at the present time, :( so I'm just bringing the old lady's van with a rental trailer, as I'm picking up an IHC Travelette cab that I'm buying from Wreckerman. I plan on leaving here Wednesday morning and departing the rally Sunday. Which...

    M820, What's the story?

    Many (all?) newer RVs are now equipped with slide outs. Would it be possible to hang kitchen cabinets, bunks, etc to the outer walls on these units, or do you guys think that the expansion mechanisms would have a tendency to bind if too much weight was placed on them?

    Swamp loggers has a M818

    Not sure how exactly they did it. And it's been well over 20 years since I last laid eyes on one of those rigs. Never thought to get a picture of one either. :(

    Pulling 2x2s out of stake pockets

    Oh man do these things got me ticked off! aua I was able to remove one of them by hand. One is busted off flush with the top of the bed, the rest won't even wiggle, let alone pull out. :mad: Tried using a slide hammer with a lag screw on the end, it just pulls right out of the wood. Tried...

    Swamp loggers has a M818

    I had been thinking the exact same thing! Regarding the duals on the front...many years ago back up in Michigan, I lived close to a large "muck farm". This operation sported a fleet of older deuces equipped with duals in the front, and triples on the rears. The word "unstoppable" comes to mind.

    1966 International Pickup USN

    The truck looks just fine Matt. Granted I see a few things done to it that I certainly would not have done, however it isn't my my name that's on the title. I do plan to black out the grille and headlight bezels on my '61, however.

    La Calmette Scrapyard, France

    That would truly be a travesty of justice indeed. Those CCKWs and Canadian Patterns might have landed at Normandy!
