    RAPCOPARTSCOMPANY just joined our crew !

    Good morning, everyone! I wanted to jump back in here for an update on the little paint sprayer I have used and recommended. It was an El-cheapo from Harbor Freight and it lasted for @ a dozen years and painted 5 vehicles. I am in the process of fixing up my M151 and was giving the sprayer a...

    XM708 Tailgate

    I'm just spit balling here, could it be that you put a rod into it so that the tail gate almost closes so you can dump and sprinkle your load onto a surface like a roadway?

    1/35 Scale replica of my real Deuce

    I've done mostly 1/35, 1/32 scale military vehicles and aircraft I was around in 34 years of active, reserve time, an invasion or two, a couple of wars, etc. I think the M715 conversion from the KM450 should be pretty easy. It looks like the main change is to the radiator / grill area and front...

    1/35 Scale replica of my real Deuce

    Nice looking big and little trucks! Just like this site being an inspiration for me on working on my bigger trucks, I have been building scale models for years. I haven't started yet, but your post reminded me that I still plan to make a scale version of my M715 by converting the South Korean...

    I have joined the Goat herd

    I can't swear they are the ones you are looking for, but when I was looking for the same lines as you, I did a quick search on E-bay and got what I needed, easy peasy. We also have a local place that will custom make any line you want, perfect made every time and affordable, but that doesn't do...

    Fuel Pump Question

    75 views and no comments..........my cover off to you all for not wanting to help a cheater. Get your lawn chairs and popcorn, hopefully I'll have time in @ 2 weeks to swap out the fuel pumps, then see what does / doesn't work. Smoke check coming.

    Fuel Pump Question

    I'll admit I'm cheating.......somewhere buried in all the posts and answers and manuals is probably the answer I seek, but I've done a bunch of reading, looking, searching etc., and I'm just going to cheat and ask my question to the guys that have the answers. I've been rebuilding a very early...

    Colorado Bill SB19-054 RE: (Former) Military Vehicle Motor Vehicle Regulation

    I started writing a really thought-out guy on the ground level view of how our local politicos are all into these shenanigans together, but I deleted it as I didn't want the admins/ to taz me for going off the deep end. (it got pretty long) Anyway, I can find zero info. on how many crashes or...

    Colorado Bill SB19-054 RE: (Former) Military Vehicle Motor Vehicle Regulation

    I'll be surprised if this ends well for us. It should be really easy to pass the proposal and fix a problem that they created. But then, what has happened in the Peoples Repubik of Colorado is exactly what the far-left legislature and governor who wants to run for prez, has wanted. They are the...

    Colorado Bill SB19-054 RE: (Former) Military Vehicle Motor Vehicle Regulation

    Concerning authorization to operate a surplus military vehicle on the road. Current law requires a motor vehicle to be designed for operation on a highway in order to be covered by the "Uniform Motor Vehicle Law", which governs driver's licenses, registrations, and traffic regulation. The bill...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Great info. and I strongly recommend follow the DOT rules; they are "next level" safe. Not trying to start an argument, just stating that the Federal DOT "rules, regulations and guidelines" are not enforceable as state law in many areas. Their enforcement is limited to interstate and intra-state...
