Or when somebody tries to wire in a key start to the 24 volt system like they did in the one I just bought, what a wiring nightmare. Something is taking the batterys down, but its easier to fix that your issue, I'm just pulling the bloody crap outa it and put it back original.

I just found a home for an original CCW (5 ton 6X4) took a bit of doing to find the 'pieces and parts', but they're out there. There's a guy who advertises in the M/V magazines, he's up in Canada, but attends the shows and he has access to quite a bit of stuff. Even makes new data plates...

GREAT opportunity, we The FIRELANDS MILITARY VEHICLE GROUP here in Ohio regularly send a deuce or 5 ton we have to a Naval Sea Cadet unit we sponsor, WOLVERINE Division up in Monroe Michigan for them to use in Christmas parades like the BIG one over in Ida Mich. (swells the town population like...

Not likely THAT is gonna buff out.

We've a couple of them in the Club, and the one the 'Group' owns (one of the members passed and his wife donated it to the organization to take care of) has been a project of late. We needed 'pieces and parts' as well as some advice. You'll find a real friend at RAPCO in Bowie Texas. Its...

Great Idea, Thanks Eastern Surplus.

They both appear identical, and thanks, gives us some training visuals for the Sea Cadets when they're working on the LARC-V's, they have nearly all of them onboard somewhere.

They now go by a percentage of the ORIGINAL purchase price. There "AIN'T" no deals in that stuff any more. Its easier and less expensive to try for things in SURPLUS than EXCESS.

not quite what they were built for BUT.... The guy that bought my old gasser M-62 found there were worse things. While "cutting fire wood" and skidding logs out, he got drug down an embankment into a river bed. He works that girl HARD. Kinda wish I'd never sold it to him, was looking to buy...

I'm on the fair board here and some years back, we even poured a special pad for the 'Truck Pulls", that lasted three years and they stopped coming. The pad is unused a waste of time and money. We thought of adding a class for trucks in the regular pulls that the tractors (modified and other...

They're STILL doing it that way there. They are almost the only coal dock left on Lake Erie. (there's a double roll over dumper in Toledo they called 'sputnik') The dock here can run mixed loads loading from dumped cars, ground stored and silo stored coal types to custom load. Just a weird...

Try OHIO TIRE TERMINAL, 2620 West Monroe Street in Sandusky. (419) 502-0091. Its over by the entrance to the Norfolk and Southern Lower Lakes Coal Docks. Mitch and the crew over there are GOOD at what they do, and he has been able to get about everything our outfit needs. (sometimes they even...

Keep this up and the manufacturer is gonna want to buy it back. WOW, what a piece of history and the work you're putting in makes this "One of a Kind" machine worth it. Great Job.

We use alot of the paint from Mark and have no issues with it. Touch up or complete repaint. works well and holds up. (only project we didn't use it on due to the fact they don't make it was restoration of a 113 year old Japanese field gun thats displayed in Port Clinton, Ohio. It was...

Did you by chance get the single point four leg lifting sling with it? There should be four lifting pads on it, two about a third of the way back from the bow and the other two just ahead of the engine compartment. If not, a crane company can lift it with a 100 to 150 ton hydraulic truck...

There are several that would like the work, you're just going to have to contact them. Look at the smaller boat yards first that have the hoist capable of lifting the weight of the boat. Our outfit has three aluminum LCM-8's (46 tons) and here in our part of Ohio, there is ONE marina that can...

Our "Group" has an extra engine, been sitting for a while, I'll see if maybe they want to part with it, Our M-37 runs well and we don't put a lot of miles on it so the engine might be considered 'excess' to our needs. I'll let you know.

I looked at the 211/135 seats and there is NOT much difference, that's for sure. They didn't re-invent the wheel just for racks then like they would today. Just a much easier and common sense approach to it then.

Think I've got some troop rack hardware, most likely enough for a whole set here in Ohio. (you can have it, its been sitting around here quite a while, just pay shipping, or pick it up if you're over this way for the Findlay Ohio show. I've an original CCKW/CCW early all steel cargo bed, the...

At least you've got a goo0d looking machine there, A member our HMV club here has a nice one and won't sell it. I HAD an older M-62 with a Continental R6602 in it, the rig needed quite a bit, and was planning to do it, but... (convinced my wife that because I had a 5 ton cargo and at that time...
