    M43 towing question

    There is a radiator shroud - I did not show it as it was tucked away with some engine parts when it was first dropped off. The shroud is a full stamped unit and is roughly 4 inches deep. It is shinny green now along with the transmission cover - front radiator brace top - shifter lever boot...

    M43 towing question

    This one clearly has no electrical socket. Plus seeing the crossmembers were universal for the 37 - this evidentually is another "piece" the Civil Defence attached to the unit.

    As an M43 ambulance was non combative nor could it display any insignia of country origin (Amerian Flag nor Star) Why and what use was the pintle hitch on the ambulance installed for ? It could not be used for towing compative equipment - unless they just did it anyhow - so was there a...

    The engine is no big deal and PB and I will work out the power plant here in the near future - after all - it is a CAMO display. PB has my 20 covered on this and I am not at least concerned. I will post pics when all is done of the Red Cross's painted and the interior all done. Otherwise I...

    Oil dye for TS issue?

    We use the dye from NAPA here with the mentioned black light - there is also dye for ac systems as well. It does work but watch the cost of a blacklight - some can get pricey but a black light is a blacklight. Run the dye in there so it can cycle through whichever system and it does work.

    I am not worried about the engine - still a ways off to deal with thinking about installing it or even working on one. Still has to be gotten up in the air after the back end is done & get working on the seals and brakes. But thank you for bringing it up as a choice. Don't worry - be...

    Slow vehicle safety

    There are all LED lights on our 109. Be aware in GA you need a permit for any flashing light that is used as a warning light - the cost is $2 per yr. Great thread.
