Greetings to all. We made a little trip to Nasheville to get my daughter graduated, packed up and home last week. We decided to come home by way of the Natches Trace and was a wonderful trip. We were a little late to see the tees changing but was beautiful none the less. The ol girl made it...

Greetings to all. The motor pool has grown over the weekend thanks to lots of hard work and help from the SS family here in Texas. We were able to load up and bring home a future M715 project for restoration and parts truck with not too much effort. I really appreciate the volenteers that showed...

Might as well start a new thread for our mid season camping rig so she wont feel left out. We went on a little trip a few weeks ago and discovered she was making oil. Ordered seal kit for the booster pump as I had already changed out the o ring at the fuel shut off. This was my experience on...

Has anyone tried going over the top of the existing roof with cargo trailer roof sheeting? Thinking the adhesive strips may hold it up enough above the existing rivets where it will not matter. I see that you can buy the radius edge and corners as well. The ol girl is pretty eat up and not...

Although still in the title/registration process, we started tear out of the existing inside conditions on the M 109. We got to the green and plywood covering the old floor today. Hopefully I can get it dry and the rusted and rotted floor replaced before our camping trip the end of next month...

I found a post about replacement J pipes being a PITA to install due to bends not matching OEM. Has anyone bought mandrel bends and replaced the bottom section that rusts out or are the new replacement J pipes made correctly now? I believe it was an older post I was looking at but several...

Greetings all. We have been hanging out in the RV section with a M725 ambulance build and thought we will come bother the neighbors for a while with our new additions to the family. We got the last one home Saturday and will try and revive them together. I pulled the injectors on the 109 and...

Greetings all: 1966 M109 rejuvination. Data plate on engine says LDT465-1D 1-87. I looked through the topics on the TM page and did not find a 1D listing. Need help with finding the correct one so I can down load. Also, is there a tag on the transmisssion and Tcase that I need to look for or...

Greetings all. We pulled the trigger this weekend and will have lots to do to get her back in shape. I did look first, but have not found a spacific thread on the correct TM to procure. I am wanting to purchase a paperbound TM. Question: What do I need to look for on the dash plate to get the...

I went to see her again and she gave me a little tease and I went all in. Now I guess will have to see if she will kiss and tell.

What are the possibilities of those of us with MV conversions sharing their trips and upcoming plans. Might be opportunities to meet in person, find a new trail to explore or many other possibilities. For me, it seems as though even a night in the sticks can turn into a good story to share...

Just joined and thanks to admin for accepting me. Bought this ol girl a few months back and been working on her to get road worthy. Made my first trip with the grandsons over memorial weekend and served us well. Functional but a long way to go.
