Have to dismount the tires anyway to send them to recycle. No big deal.

What seemed to happen is this: USMC orders say 20,000 M38A1 Jeeps from Kaiser. Then someone at DoD says “Air Force needs 1000 of them, divert the shipment”. Then Air Force has a depot paint them strata blue and off they go to flightlines. This would happen before USMC ever even had a...

Wow that is very original and unmolested. Quite possible the USAF had it. Heaters are a AF thing, USMC just froze and LIKED IT. Never seen that engine color before on an Army or USMC Jeep. The serial number on the engine matched the vin from the factory, but quickly became disassociated when...

That is encouraging. Consider getting a steel reproduction body kit quoted and subtract that amount from $10k and offer under that.

I personally would pass on this. You need more information to decide. Is the engine and frame correct for a '42 MB? If those are CJ2A parts then $10K is way out of line. If this is local to you, see if the frame has the machine gun mount which means WWII frame. See what the engine serial...

OK I will chime in. The seller is saying "everything else is MB", That is incorrect. I see a T-90 transmission (should be T-84), wrong: Bumper, bumperettes, windshield, wheels, rear seat, taillights, carb, BO light. Missing: Fuel filter, generator/regulator, shovel/axe brackets...

Actually Santa in this case is Dave and his elves at Eastern Surplus and Equipment! FINALLY got the impossible to find left rear door at a reasonable price! Thanks Eastern!

4 ea of 8.25-20 NDTs still sitting at GENSCO Houston. This is a $425 tire people! I am not affiliated with GENSCO just passing on availability.

My speculation: the M34s were the absolute first trucks to roll off the assembly line in 1950. Soon thereafter, the design was switched to the M35. The very early nature of the M34, plus low production numbers, plus heavy use by the Army resulted in them being “used up” and didn’t have much...

Injection pumps need to go to an injection pump rebuild shop. Supply the CPL number from the engine tag to the rebuilder.

Yeah I think GMC dug into the archives for that design that they applied to the new Sierra pickups. The super early hydramatic GMCs had that tailgate as well.

Very nice truck! My 916 that came direct from DRMO has a white transfer too. Some rebuild depot somewhere must use white paint.

1 hour fun=4 hours with the pressure washer

About 15 of those sold on Government Liquidation RRAD location about 10 years ago for around $700 ea. Cab for HIMARS rocket launcher trucks.

I have run into this before on a 1009. The connection between the copper strands in the battery cable and the crimped on battery terminal has degraded. Replace whichever cable is bad.

It's all about what you are doing with your truck. If you plan on rhinolining the entire truck, adding 20's, Duramax conversion, etc, then by all means use the aftermarket doors. Restoration to be an authentic military vehicle? OEM doors.

???? The brake light bulb flashes when the turn signal is activated.

Do you need a NSN or a door? The entire door assembly with everything included is not an issue item to my recollection.
