I am looking for a Hawk missile carrier. It does not need to be restored, but I'd like a good running vehicle. Please let me know if you have something or know of one. Thank you.
Can you research anything that shows that, if a vehicle is purchased outside of TX, the tax is paid when the vehicle is registered within the state? If you can find something like that, then you could show that to GP. This is how it works in Maryland. I showed documentation of this to...
As you have surmised, the truck is probably fine. But, I'd either make sure they get it running or you get a good deal on the truck because you would be taking a risk. At a minimum, I'd insist on being able to make sure the engine is free. The others who have stated that the soft top is the...
Considering the truck will require a detach or similar trailer, your $4K quote is pretty good (possibly on the low side). Speciality trailers cost more. If the truck could fit on a step deck (it can't unless you remove the cab top, windshield, exhaust, etc.), you could get it moved for around...
I once had a USMC M998 that had multiple bullet holes through the floor board...from the inside out! Well, that is what I suspected based upon the size and look of the exit hole. No real way for me to be sure. I also had an M1045 that had holes going into the door right above the supplemental...
To allow you to increase your search radius, note that the passenger seat in the M809 series trucks is identical to those found in the M44 and M39 series. So, searching on M35 passenger seat probably will yield more results because the truck is so prevalent.
I bought some black plastic rear composites from Midwest Military. They were manufactured by one of the OEM manufacturers. I don't recall the manufacturer, although I believe it is Truck Lite. I went with black because the camo right around the light is black. You could always paint whatever...
My recommendation would be to have it towed. It is the safer plan. I have used a towbar to tow vehicles before, although not that far. If I had to tow something over like 20 miles, I'd get it towed or hauled. Personally, I'd rather spend the extra money for peace of mind. I wish you the...
I have no doubt you are correct in your post (entire post, but specifically the part about not needing additional lubrication), but I add conditioner for other reasons...mainly to remove water that accumulates throughout the year and to prevent fuel gelling in the cold. Whether it works or not...
Awesome! It reminds me of the time I took an M35A2 onto Ft. Meade for 4th of July festivities. It was crowded as hell. I'm driving around looking for a place to park when some Private directed me into a small parking lot. After off-loading the family (and friends), the officer in charge...
