Re: M43 info needed

Great find Steve! I had hoped to find the same thing, but had to settle on a M725 that I'm gathering everything I can to restore to original in all respects. I'd like to stay in touch with you during your process, since sharing resources may result in mutual benefit. Vendors of Ambulance related ite...

Re: Colorado Prohibits Military Vehicles on Hwy

I've been driving my 51 M37 around since I licensed it with collector plates in 2012, with no problem. Apparently this law was brought to it's current level in 2019, and talking with our MVCC Denver folks, they have had to do out of state titling and licensing of their vehicles since then. They have...

Re: M101A1 trailer

I recently bought an M101A2 trailer, and am in the process of learning about mine. I was confused about it having several data plates, both showing different VINs. From the reference materials I've found, it began to make more sense. It appears the frame and axle is an M116, and the box is the M101A...

Re: WTB Rails and Bows for my M101A2 Cargo Trailer

I called them side racks, but they go all the way around, and the bows mount on them. I was corrected to refer to them as rails. I guess it just depends on what part of the country your from LOL.

Re: Colorado Prohibits Military Vehicles on Hwy

Our MVCC Colorado Club apparently had gained ground on this, but it ground to a halt when COVID flared up. It appears my solution now is to sell it to my Daughter who lives in a state that still Honors those who serve. I'll let her title it there, but I fully intend for these old Steel Soldiers to S...

Re: Colorado Prohibits Military Vehicles on Hwy

Yesterday my M725 (that now has the name "Medic", since we call my M37 "Soldier") met with a Much More Ominous Hurtle -- The current Law in Colorado says there is two categories of civilian owned military vehicles; One - is "Surplus Military Vehicle", that requires the ...

Re: Colorado Prohibits Military Vehicles on Hwy

Thanks for your input Guys! Getting my title has been complicated by an apparent 18 other vehicles, in other states, titled with the same short VIN as mine. My title is a correct Colorado title, done in 2006. The most current title with the same VIN was done in Texas. So mine is being run through th...

Colorado Prohibits Military Vehicles on Hwy

Maybe some of you have already been confronted with this, but I found out when titling my recent purchase of an M725 Ambulance through our DMV. Its a result of Senate Bill 19-054, which I still need to research. I asked the DMV how that affects my 1951 M37 which has been registered, licensed, and in...

Re: Help finding M725 Ambulance Resources

Thanks guys for your Ideas!
As with all our projects, it's an adventure getting acquainted with both the Iron, and the resources to return it to life.
Each has its peculiarities, but discovering the "Best Go To's" makes it possible.

WTB Rails and Bows for my M101A2 Cargo Trailer

I recently picked up a decent M101A2 trailer, and am gathering stuff to completely go through it. I'm starting the process of locating hopefully a NOS set of rails and bows. I will settle for a decent used set, as long as I can restore them to like new condition. Please PM me if you have a set avail...
