M211
Leave it alone. Too much involved. I have restored several M135 and M211 trucks. Not much parts there.
E-mail joeyounginc@aol.com for pics. I can't figure out how to put them in SS.
Turbo is nothing, it's a clean air addition. Me and my non-turbo M109 hauled a load of parts and a M105 trailer all over the East Coast. Some buy them for the whistle effect, which is neat. I love making litle kids hold their ears when I do a Memorial Day parade. Yeah, the wrecker in low range...
RE: Duece tanker question
Every one I had was plain steel. I was in the home heating oil business and I never encountered fuel tanks made of stainless. They were aluminum or steel.
RE: RALLY FOR N.J.???? TRI STATE AREA?
Good idea, Joec. As mentioned, be sure a date does not conflict with other mv events. I'm less than two hours from the proposed location, so it's ideal for me. The pond should bring out the "swimmers" (amphibious vehicles) and I know that the pines are a...
I would probably have tried to put you to work! :D
Really though, I had lots of guys stop in often and wander around looking at the trucks and other mil-vehicles I had. I enjoyed it.
NOS tools and stuff was a real nice find. I found lots of neat things in the deuces, but one I amazed by was a...

RE: Re: 5 Ton paper work help
Yes, Joseph, this old dude is still around! I've been posting to SS on the deuce forum and by chance saw the Coveralls posting and I responded.
Good to hear from you.
Wow, Dave, thank you! I remember your purchase and seeing you later on at Aberdeen. I'm not selling trucks, but I have a lot of fond memories of when I did. Met so many great people and made so many friends.
That Indian gets ridden regularly, even in winter. I kept one of the CUCVS's for myself...
RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Shear Pins do Work!
Just read your Post, Kenny. I'm out of headlights. Haven't had any for a while. I have two boxes that I thought were headlights, but they're M35A2 NOS metal front lights.
4X4
Kenny,
Thanks for the kind words.
I recently sent my last sweatshirt to a customer in Maine, but his wife grabbed it!
Glad to hear you're wearing one. If I find any that I stuck away someplace, I'll send you one.
