[SCM35A2]

Here is my 1991 M923A2/5ton truck. To date she's pretty much stock except for a few upgrades that include a bigger/more heavy-duty air dryer assembly, new headlights & outer rings, new rear mud flaps & brackets, K&N air filter, new front inner-fender mud/engine guards, repainted all the rims black & swapped out the military batteries for two group 31 batteries. This winter-(currently) my buddy Arron who is a fellow military vehicle enthusiast & heavy wheel machine will be doing some major upgrades that include a complete oem front winch assembly, hardtop, new power coated combat rims with larger 16.00R20 tires & 5-inch exhaust. I've also got a complete navigation system with outside cameras & monitor for the interior and some Doomsday Diesel dog bone retainer plates for the rear. I've also got some custom group 31 battery tray mounts, license plate box & bracket that I had power coated as well. My plans are to move the batteries to the side compartment, rhino line the battery box under the passenger seat & use it for storage. At a recent rally I snagged a Pioneer tool kit unit off an M35A2 truck that I'm also going to mount on the truck side storage box. For the engine I'm going to repaint it all flat black & have all the metal hoses redone/powder coated a flat green. On my "to do" list is to also repaint the truck back to the military specs/camouflage...

The day she arrived thanks to Simp for picking her up & bringing her to me...

Now for the upgrades that I'm most excited about, the larger tires, new rims, navigation system/back up camera, larger/straight pipe exhaust & moving the batteries. Another item on my list is to swap out the driver's seat to an air ride one, but haven't decided on what I want to go with yet...

Last Thursday to vote for your MVOTM .

 

[patracy]

Since we ended in a tie, I've extended the voting another two days.

 

[Guyfang]

perhaps I can get my son to join the forum and then cast a vote?

 

[Migginsbros]

Come on folks, extended time line. Please vote for your favorite MV of the month, now.
We can´t use another tie. Christmas is near and December nomination is on.

 

[M813rc]

Extended voting and still tied!! Outstanding performance by two outstanding vehicles.

Can they both share the November calendar slot, then be separated when we do Vehicle of the Year?

Cheers

 

[patracy]

Well then. Another day of voting! I could use my powers and simply cast a vote and close the poll. But I'll give it another day. Then all bets are off.....

 

[marchplumber]

Someone should cast a vote on this here contest.....



Both good vehicles, NO DOUBT!!

The suspense is causing anxiety!

Alfred Hitchcock couldn't match this cliffhanger!

Where's the popcorn!
