Hi Guys.

Have not been to the Clare Show/Swap yet although I have thought about it many times.

Is there anybody going that has any LVS Items? I just got my Wrecker rear end bolted up to the Front Power Unit and am now in the market for all of the "stuff" that fills the boxes!

The list, as you can imagine, is endless when it comes to wrecker "toys", but if anyone has anything that they might think applicable, I can check and see if it will work on the big girl.

I have seen the "tow bar" that is used with the LVS around. Basically, it is the heavy square extendable one that has the third member across between the "feet" ends. Someone on SS was asking what it was for some time ago - and now I know.

There is also a pulley type deal with a heavy cable with rings that is used with the A-frame for towing.

Again, the list is endless including all kinds of hydraulic tools, safety chains, you name it.

Let me know if you have anything and it might help to entice me to make the trip.

Dave

Bob, They used to have two Ferrets, I purchased the MKII with the turret and the owner decided to keep the MKI.
I only need a few items as it was mostly complete, I just need a gunners sight and some accessories.

Anybody bringing military wiring components? Looking for a couple of the 2 into 1 Packard connecters.

I'm looking for a good generator for my M38.

I'll have an assortment of MEP002 parts, and some 6ft. cargo straps. Still sorting other stuff.

 

[Bob H]

I'll have brake parts from a M135, very good used, complete from a front & rear axle (4 sets)
also I spoke with a lady from the Owosso area that will be there in her search for a jeep.

 

[Lawrence of Arabia]

Needing a rear seat for an M1009/Blazer. I should be up there Friday afternoon.

Weather permitting, I will bring 9 - 9.00 X 20 NDT tires, 7 - on the rim, 2 - tires only, most have good tread you be the judge. For M35: muffler that will replace the straight exhaust for those really long rides, 2 - used passenger seat tops, 2 - used pioneer tool racks, few odd and ends filters and seals, a road emergency axle repair kit with 2 good used bearings for that midnight axle failure, an antenna bracket that fits over the box stake and will hold a 'sugar scoop' antenna. M1009 common rusted fender flare repair pieces R/L. Looking for M38A1 spare tire bracket, M37 mirrors, those special lock ring screws and flanges for the dash gauges, stuff I can't remember right now....Found some CJ2A front fenders, hood,windshield, grill all rough but if your lookin..... M37 gas tank that looks nice outside but rusted inside needs to be sealed/re-line. massive crank screw type jack and handle for a heavier type trailer,

 

[MatthewH]

On the off chance someone shows up with HMMWV parts, wouldn't mind a set of mirrors and mounting brackets

 

[natem]

This week is going fast. There will people on site starting Thursday.

Spread the word, everyone welcome.

Last bump, come on out.

Well after not making it to the Clare show for the last couple of years, It looks like I'll be able to slip away and make it over on Saturday. I'm not going to be bringing any vehicles for display, but will be on the look out for any parts that grab my eye. My buddy Jim who just picked up his first military vehicle will be with me and searching for M37 parts. I know a couple of the items he is looking for are a set of soft top bows and supports, front shackle mounts, troop seat hardware, and other odds and ends. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

 

[Bob H]

Arrgh... Still need some drive shaft flanges / drive shafts. NP200 transfer case from M-37- need all three ends, hooking to M135/M211 axles so I need front & rear.
Several nearby leads have fizzled, needed a couple weeks ago.
The shafts can be junk, we need the ends, have welder and drive shaft tubes.
