The number's on the side are the USMC registration number. Rather than put unit markings on the truck, the Marine Corps simply stencil's the reg. number on the truck. They don't receive unit marking's for the most part but occasionally you'll see one that's been personalized with some artwork.

Does that thing have an engine? Did you just forget them????

Looking forward to seeing it when I drop off the trailer.

Did it start? Inquiring minds want to know

 

[RAYZER]

With the tires back on it we can pull start it.

BTW Ray,saw your m818 today. Sweet.

Do yourself a hugh favor and replace the fuel line from the filter to the pump on the engine. Its a AN10 ends and you can go 1/2 or 3/8 hose. They are known for cracking and loosing prime and making them really hard starting. I just replaced mine a few weeks back and the best money I have spent on the truck yet !!

Did you guys pull it? I guess we shouldn't have taken the tow bar off Saturday.

BTW Ray,saw your m818 today. Sweet.

Thanks Ray.
