Anyone know what these things are? I photoed these at Colemans Surplus in PA.

I found a military 20 ton rough terrain crane in Northern VA. It's been sitting by the road for many years, and looks complete but obviously needs to be put back into service after a long slumber. I'm not sure if it's for sale, I wanted to know if there was anyone here that could use one...

Stopped at Roman's Surplus in PA today on my way back from Millersburg, PA. The surplus store is still in business, which is good. Got lots of good stuff in store, and the paintball is only a side business, it hasn't fully taken over the store. BUT The paintball field has been bulldozed...

I know someone here has one in resto. Just wanted to see some detailed pics of a GOER truck, any variant, in service or not. I Googled the truck and can't find too much on it, believe it or not. The pics I have found are small and grainy.

What is the correct color for the yellow on 1950s to 1960s bridge plates? And what off-the-shelf commercial equivalent would you recommend?

Okay, I'm gonna get some flak over this for being a little green in the MV resto field (good thing I'm not yellow!), but what type of oil does the standard M715 series use, if still equipped with the 230cid straight six? 10W30? 20W50? It sounds dumb, I know, but all the manuals I have give a...

Okay, getting down to planning where upgrades are going to go on my -725. I would like to put a siren on the beast, but don't know of any official positioning of said 24V siren. Some have told me to put it on the hood, opposite of the blackout light, but that may be too heavy and block too...

Found this in the photos area. Whose truck is this? Wanna know what size super swampers you have on there. They look so right I wanna use same tire and size on my -725.

Okay, going to install the rear driveshaft this weekend, but how do you know if I need to install new U-joints? The ones I have seem to work okay, but are a little rusty and dirty. The joint seems okay, though.

Found this online. M123 tractor proving it has the biggest nuts (and bolts) of the MV family. Once and for all!

Okay, looking to find a good deal on a set of 9.00x16 tires for my M725 ambulance, or a set of the 11.00x16 tires that have been surplused out recently. Money's tight - always is - and looking for a good buy. Anyone recommend someone who has a set?

Alright, got the title, thanks to Broadway Title, got my registration, got my insurance, and now: Now, time to get it running!

Someone told me this was an M37 part, but it doesn't look familiar to me. Any help?
