Just got an e-mail from Richie Bros. They are raising the bidders fee to 15% so they can squeeze even more profit from the surplus they get for free and pay the government pennies on the dollar. I will not be buying anything more from Gov Deals or Gov Planet. Dear valued customer, We’re...

Anyone else get an e-mail from an outfit claiming to be a sponsor of SS called United States of Freight??? Claiming to have some sort of givaway ending tonight. Sounds pretty fishy to me. I never heard of them or any giveaway and it ends tonight. SteelSoldiers Steel Soldiers giveaway...

I am told I do have permission to access the mess hall forum? I thought a paid subscription allowed that. I can see past posts I had in there. I am trying to find the old weather thread that was active for so many years.

I just picked up a 003 with 8 hours on the clock. This thing appears to have been mothballed after testing since the convenience outlets were taped over, fuel tank and filters were bone dry and clean besides some rust from condensation. Once I soaked the pump in acetone and changed all of the...

On my recently acquired M37 it has a soft top on it but in trying to get things lined up I can see that the entire top is apparently leaning backwards. My window gaps are tight at the top in the front and larger at the back and opposite at the bottoms. Windows are in the doors straight. Doors...

I have a 53 M37 with the usual shifter issue of the shifter traveling all the way over to the passenger side to get into third gear. I am assuming (yea, I know about the word assume) that I have the early style trans with the one pin shifter support. This truck came with a transmission top cover...

I am working on a 1953 M37 that has been modified by the fire service and again by some bubba mechanics. I doubt I am going to try to fully return it to full military form but I do want to get it it good running order. Right now brakes are on the platter. This has had a hydrovac system added to...

I am sure this exists here somewhere but I have not been able to find it. I have found that the M37 I bought that was ready to go is far from it and it needs a lot of parts. I want to see what is available from the civilian side after seeing the price for one, yes ONE, brake shoe!! If I have to...

I am looking for modern tire sizing to replace the 900x16. I am picking up a M37 tomorrow and all it needs to drive is new tires. Comes complete with four standard rims and four combat rims with hummer tires on them. Yes, I know, wrong size. That is why I am looking for new tires. And yes, I am...

I bought two alternators and when I got them I kind of recognize one but the other one is a head scratcher. It has the electrical inputs in the center and an external fan on the back end opposite the pulley. And here is the one I recognize, but it has a rough bearing in it, what is the name of...

Tom Murray, One of the original dealers on the East Coast has passed away. I remember seeing him bidding back in the DRMO days when you were bidding in person on site. He was a tough bidder and a tough man but always fair to me when dealing with him. Condolences to his son John and all of the...

I have a premium membership but in the last couple days all I see are ads, ads, ads. I thought with the premium membership you did not see the ads? Ads are not all that bad when they are not intrusive but when I open a forum I do not even see the forum, the entire top section is ads!!!

I know this may sound like sacrilege but has anyone ever done a swap to a kubota 3 cylinder diesel engine? One of my 002's just will not run right and I have diagnosed it till I am blue in the face. I bought this from a guy who did the same thing and gave up and sold it to me cheap. I already...

Where did the mess tent and the weather forum go? Gone? It has been in my frequently looked at pages for years and I check it every day and I went here just now and it is gone. I just looked at it earlier.

I have not seen one single post other than the one announcing the event. Is anyone going this year?

6 or 7 years ago I was looking to rebuild the injection system on one of my sets and I was talking to Storeman about getting some parts. Life git in the way and I never got it done but I want to get on it now that I am retired. I do not see Storeman on here anymore and his last posts were in...

I sent GL a message after getting an e-mail saying they were changing names and this is the reply I got. Is Gov-Planet now handling things like ammo cans and shelters in addition to vehicles? Thank you for your e-mail. We are no longer holders of the GovernmentContract. If you would be...

Well, been looking for a M37 for a long time but I wanted a winch truck and finding one at the right price (cheap) was hard. Found one in Fla. so I bought it. Now comes the ordeal of getting it to NJ! It was a restoration project that was donated to a museum so they could sell it to make some...

Need a M37 moved from Green Cove Springs Florida To Pemberton NJ.

Does GL no longer show whats is in your closed watchlist? I used to use that as a guide to what items were selling for before bidding on stuff. Maybe that is why they no longer show it?
