Hey guys i was curious if anyone had experience with this model of welder and generator. Looks like its from the 50s. I have an opportunity to buy it and was curious if anyone knew any flaws with it, or things that typically need addressed it has a straight six flathead in it

I know very little about the CCKW and G506 and I am trying to figure out where the data plates for each would be located? Also do they have any serial number stampings on the frame or anywhere else to help identify the truck? Do the data plates typically divulge whether they were a Winch truck...

As a fellow Montanan, I wanted to take a moment to post about US Army SSG Atkins, who this week was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions in Iraq, June 1, 2007. SSG Atkins was a Bozeman, Montana native who paid the ultimate sacrifice protecting his country and the men he...

Okay so I'm curious as to everyone's input. Looking for exhaust ideas on how to build a correct complete exhaust. I have some patterns on some pipe from 08. But I was curious if anyone knew of a more correct exhaust clamp than a V-band clamp like used on modern turbo diesel trucks. I found after...

I was wondering on a 5 ton why they have air plumbed to the front of the truck? I am looking at a m51 that could be a possible project, and noticed the air on the front...also noticed a m932 at the local vfd that had air up front-so I'm sssuming its a 5 ton thing. Is it for towing-that the...

So, after screwing around with a G749 that needs a starter this past week(WE think anyhow-Thanks to USMC), I've started to wonder how readily available parts were for the starters and generators for these old beasts. I've checked a few parts sources that wholesale electrical components of this...

Getting ready to go into winter, and was curious your guys input regarding moisture/air brake antifreeze in a m35A2. Will the air brake line antifreeze bother the air pak? Is there a specific spot that it is best added? Working formerly as a mechanic I've rebuilt quite a few heavy truck air...

Okay, so I did a little searching and couldn't find a thread on this, but I wanted to see some of your guys' military vehicles at car shows. While I love to see a redone muscle car with shiny paint and chrome, nothing brings a smile to my face to see an OD, no chrome, no frills, ugly duckling...

So what is it women really want? A deuce of course!!! I should know I have four of them-women that is(actually don't have a clue what the older one wants, but the young ones wanted a deuce!). I wanted to take the time to thank everyone, with a special thanks to okie1008morrison and usmc 00-08...

Finally got my fuel tank replaced. It was an original Olaco that has rusted out on the bottom, right next to the seam. I haven't had the time to fix it, so I decided to order a new one. Found Peter Debella stocked a tank with the original Olaco markings. Comparing the two it was a very good...

I was curious in your guys' input. IT seems as though the G749 trucks are getting hard to come by. I hard been watching for them for a while and havenm't found much close to me. Are transmission parts still available for them? -Ben

I was interested in your guys' opinions. I have the opportunity to purchase two m211s for $1000. They are from a VFD and one has a 1500 water tank and the other is just a cab and chassis. One ran five years ago, and the guy thought with a little fuel and new batteries it would probably start...
