Ray, we need to talk about that 50' slave cable.

If I had a a couple of spare adapters maybe, I have had issues before where I lent my robotool out and left the adapter with it or adapter was left at home. I was actually thinking of perhaps mounting the receptacle in another spot perhaps at the rear of vehicle even. the ground can go to the frame and I'd just need a 12-13' section of cable to the battery box. My logic here was if I needed to jump start my deuce from my cucv while towing it across the country I could get by with my short set of cables. I bought a 20' set but ends are banged up ( I have a set of replacement ends though)

Ray, I have a 12' slave cable, and I usually have to fight to make it worth. Great to use for powering tools/pumps/etc from the slave port, but a PITA at times for slave starting vehicles.
I would guess a 25' or so slave cable would meet most of my needs. I could always make an adapter to link a 25' with the 12' for an extra long one if needed.

Looking to sell the tents, as I got the lot for the extra canvas. Not sure on price, but to be honest, we would need to spread them out and check them thoroughly to make sure they are in good condition. Price will be FAIR.

Dale, what tent? Must be someone else, either that or my memory is worse then I remember ;)

The pictured tent is a M1942 Small Wall tent and if you have a stash of those, I would be interested in a couple as well. The majority of them, that I have seen, seem to have been made in 1942 and they were out of the tent manual in the early 60's.
I put the pictures in to show the various smaller tents. You can see the small wall, in the distance a GP small, a Mod. 1950 hexagonal tent (5man), and in another shot the retangular squad tent, about 16 X16.

I doubt these are worth anything and if i had more room I would keep them but I dont do they got to go. They are various brands all 9.00's and there is six of them. There is checking and wear on some, and less on others. I would get rid of the other 5 but they are still on rims and id like to keep them. I will let them go for the price of, free. I however will not be able to make it down but could meet up with someone that is heading that way (wink, nudge, cough, odnorth/stumpjumper) if it could be arranged. I'm not sure if they are worth the trouble, if they aren't I will just be throwing them away.
Can do, just let me know if needed.
