Fun show in Oshkosh!
Yes, it was a great show.
I really enjoyed hearing about the red M38A1. I couldn't hear the owner say what year. We drove mostly M151 in the USAF, but there were some M38A1 that always went to more senior airman.
It is an early 1953 M38a1 before the update changes. I was remarkably original and scored well because of that fact.
This was awesome to watch. It's great to see these trucks grab folks interest and helps keep the memory of the ones who served in these trucks alive. Great build.
Thanks, these are great looking trucks.
Thanks for this very helpful and informative video…and will refer to it in finishing up my M38A1. You have a beautifully restored machine. Can you tell me how I may find more info on how to accurately configure the hood numbers…specifically the later versions as you have on your hood.
Thanks, glad it helped you. As for the hood registration numbers, once they are lost there is really no way to recover them. There are several ways to make correct looking numbers. Contact the guys at www.deltateamdecals.com/ as they are awesome at helping to make up correct numbers.
Beautifully restored vehicles…thx for sharing this experience with us and congratulations on your wins! Inspiring me to finish work on my M38A1…thx again and maybe will see each other in Louisville 👍👏
Thanks, and good luck with getting your M38a1 finished up and hopefully we will see it at the show in Louisville.
Great job enjoyed it nice jeep
Thanks, it was a fun restoration on the M38a1 and I'm glad all the hard work paid off.
Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for always watching!
Congratulations on the awards. How are the vendor prices?
A lot of the vendors had great pricing on items and I picked up a few small items I was looking for.
Some big leakers there. LOL
The joys of old vehicles. You don't get worried until they stop leaking. Ha Ha
@@greenirontv324 Old cars don't leak, they mark their territory. 🙂
Nice work, it's a great kit
Thanks
Thank you for going through the judging criteria list... Very helpful
Glad it can help
Looking forward to your upcoming videos of the MVPA.
Thanks, we should have some good stuff from the show.
Who keeps track of the existing trucks serial number? Is that on M715 zone?
Yes, the M715zone has the most up to date list of serial numbers that have been submitted by members.
Good job
Thanks
I'm glad I watched to the end ( no, I didn't FF ). That is a cool project. My uncle had a military museum up in that part of Wisconsin. He passed away a couple years ago and all his stuff is just sitting. I told my cousin about the MVPA convention. Thanks for the heads up!
@@richardparrott1580 Yes the MVPA Convention in Oshkosh is from Sept. 11- 14th. The 57mm anti-tank guns should make for a fun restoration.
Thanks and good luck.
Thanks
Your m725 videos have helped to motivate me to start working on mine. Got it started, running, electrical issues identified and parts ordered. So excited to drive it soon
That check sheet looks like something my CO wanted to brown nose the two star. All I wanted was a functional vehicle that wouldn't leave me stranded in the middle of a desert. I think our motor pool kept a "dog and pony show" vehicle for those occasions. 😅 Love the M38A1 and M151.
It can be quite intimidating when you first look at everything listed on it. But pretty easy once you start going through it for a restoration.
Do you have any leads on that grease-able shackle bolt? All of the big companies don’t have any
No, I don't. You might try looking up a local truck spring shop in your area. It's nothing special for a shackle bolt. Take the old one in with you and I bet they can match it.
ผมมี 1คันครับขายไปแล้ว
Is that a prop rifle in the 2nd 2.5ton or a real one?
It's an airsoft replica
LOL hey! That's me in the General Taylor's booth at 18:33
Glad you made the video!
Gotta get me one of those sirens.
Yes, they are great for parades. We just use the cheap 12v ones from Amazon and wire them to one side of the batteries. They don't draw much and don't run constant, so you don't have to worry about causing an imbalance between the batteries.
A fellow M715 owner here with a couple of practical suggestions. (1) If you develop a flat, make sure to check the exterior AND the interior of the tire case for the penetrating object before reassembly. Whatever caused the flat might still be in there! DO wipe out the interior of the tire and clean up the beads. (2) once your tire is removed, block that axle up. Then, you can use a high lift jack (placed between the tire sidewall and the bumper of your truck) to push the bead down off the rim. Make sure the standard bar (where it is attached to the foot of the jack) is as close to the safety ring as possible so as to achieve the straightest push downward on the tire. Levering down the sidewall using pry bars where one end is against the safety ring, can have the effect of tilting the bead, causing it be become tighter against the rim. (3) Talcum powder is useful as a dry lubricant for areas where rubber is against rubber, such as where tubes and flaps come together. (4) It is wise to use a lead maul (or of another material softer than the wheel and safety ring) if you must use a hammer. (5) Clean that rim and the safety ring very thoroughly where they join one another. Make sure the mating surfaces are free of dirt, rust, burrs and damage before reassembly.
Good info, I believe I even stated in the video that the tube had ripped the valve stem. This is fairly common in tubed tires as the tire pulls against the tube and valve stem where it protrudes through the rim.
So stock does the dash have a tachometer?
No there is no tachometer stock in the M715 series of trucks.
@@greenirontv324 Thanks, didnt believe so.
It was a good turn out i thought
Yes, there were at least 60 plus cars there. It was a great turnout for the show.
@@greenirontv324 mine was the white truck leaving
@@neverbored_s10_addict Glad you came to the show.
Thank you your video.From s,Korea.
Please double check the "Steering Box to Frame" Bolts for Tightness ... seems to be excessive "Steering Box Movement" at 3:50 when checking adjustment. ✌
Good job
Thanks
Good job...thank you,your video.
Glad you liked it.
Nice work! I need to do the same thing.
Thanks, yep a lot of sanding to get them stripped down.
Those look great!
Thanks
Good job
Thanks, they turned out great.
Happy Independence Day from Minnesota.
Thanks Happy Independence Day!
I have one
Sorry if that sounded mean
Have you ever driven the 715 off-road? I wonder how well they handle sand?
I have not taken the M715 off-road more than just down dirt roads. I do know that they are stiff off-road due to the 5/4 ton suspension.
Nice one bro 👍
Thanks for checking it out
Love the Jeeps. I also appreciate the mom in the jean shorts.
Thanks for watching
Gosto M38 más minha paixão é o M38A1 ❤❤❤
Great video, thank you for making it. I just got my dream truck, 68 m715 . This was very helpful. 👍👍 also what size swamper do you have on it?
We have 36-12.50 x16 Swamper Radials on the truck. They are just slightly larger than the originals and being a radial ride so much better.
@@greenirontv324 thanks, now I have more questions.. 🤔 So you’re running a radial 12.5 wide on the stock split ring ? Are you using a radial tube or a bias tube?
@@Apcrawler We are running radial tubes. The important thing is that the 12.5 wide tire only has a 9" wide tread width which is the same size as the original NDT's. side wall bulge is not measured on the old tires for sizing like it is on modern tires.
@@greenirontv324 awesome, thank you so much for the info! So this would be true for any other tire of the same size as well correct? I may want to run something with a little less aggressive tread. I’ve never run radial swampers, so I’m not sure how they hold up to pavement.. I know bias wear out pretty quick
@@Apcrawler most tire manufactures will list the full specs of the tires on their website. So You would want ones with a tread width around 9"s
Nice M725, M38A1, M715
Thanks, they are fun vehicles to have and drive.
Nice job Dave. She looks sharp and ready to show off. I love how you pull up to these shows and jump out..no waxing, no tire shine, just there to have fun…as you should!
Thanks, it really drives the chrome and polish crowd nuts when it happens.
Great content as usual Dave. I had to chuckle at the moving of the vehicles, as I have to do the same thing. It's one of reasons that I don't drive them as much as I would like.
Thanks, garage space gets to be a premium when you have multiple vehicles. It always seems like a shuffle to get them in a spot.
I'm slowly working on making my sarge green '21 Willy's Jeep Gladiator to look like a military truck since it's the 80th anniversary of Willy's. I put a .50cal bullet antenna on it, tan seat covers with the Molly bags, and installed my bridge plate on the front bumper. I took it off of my 1986 m1008 army truck before I got rid of it. Looks pretty cool so far. 😊
Great episode
Thanks
Good job.
Thanks like always!
I worked as a Diver on an Air Force tracking station, we had a M715 we had to get to alot of beach landing sites with rudimentary trails, the thing was a beast along with an M37 that we used this was in the 80s still going strong. They finally DRMOd the 715 and M37 I bid on both but only got the M37 for $800, there was another dude bidding against me for the M715. We used those and an old CJ3b too go offroading, the M715 broke the frame, it took us for ever to get it back finally recovered it with a M935 tow rig.
Great story!
i like the color that olive brown green drab! Can you tell me what paint you used where you got it?
I use Gillespie OD #24087 and it can be bought from either Army Jeep Parts in PA. or Rapco in Texas. Pick which ever one is closest to you to save on shipping.
I wonder if a tow rope similar to the one used on the World War 2 jeep would fit in the tool box under the passenger seat? 🤔
It would probably be a tight fit depending on how long the rope was.
I've seen surplus grenade shift knobs in the Quadratec catalog back in the early 2000s. I'm not sure if they still sell them since I haven't looked in years.
The Eight Ball shifter in mine, I made from a real eight ball that was drilled and a nut was epoxied into it.
I've got a 1965 Willy's Jeep CJ6. If nobody buys my jeep, I'd like to get seats like yours since someone installed a couple of riding lawnmower seats with no backrests in my jeep.
There are several of the military vehicle parts vendors who sell the replacement seat frames and several who sell the seat cushions and covers
Good job
Thanks
