Aberdeen MV Rally this week
Loading the trailer for Aberdeen. Does anyone need M37 parts? Previously enjoyed 900x16 or 1100x20 tires? I'm in my usual spaces, Yellow T11 (back row). BMAN will be with me and will have Convoy shirts for the Friday night BBQ.

Re: 2014 Va Rally at Graves Mountain Aug 29-Sept 1, 2014
We spent this past weekend (July 4th) riding the trails and doing some more clearing, etc. We have a few more trials ready for this year than last, including some on the lower elevations of the two mountains that border the property that we can ride on with the larger trucks...so we know that a M37 ...

2014 Va Rally at Graves Mountain Aug 29-Sept 1, 2014
2014 Va Rally at Graves Mountain Aug 29-Sept 1, 2014 (aka, Labor Day Weekend). With the need for some folks to get things nailed down at work (or with the Significant Other), I thought that I would let everyone know that the VA Rally (aka Graves Mountain MV Trailrides and Rally) will be held on Aug ...

Re: Securing Truck
The USMC trucks that I have all have had a couple pieces of angle iron welded on and above the tool box doors, a hole drilled in them, and a padlock inserted to secure items in the box. A photo of the arrangement may be found on my website at: http://www.garbee.net/~cabell/december/marinemods/DSCN05...

Re: Tyres Problem Resolved...
Good to see that these tires are still being made and sold (if not in the USA...). They have been in use for years by the folks in Norway, Denmark, and Israel (and others). I have had them on my tire page for some time, mainly due to folks acquiring them on trucks returned to the USA from overseas.....

Re: 2013 Graves Mountain Trailrides in Virginia
Wish you could make it Rich... Hopefully, next year (it'll be the same weekend...). I'm not counting my XM708 in that list of M37s, just the ones that I know other folks are bringing. The trails around the farm are perfect for them (or, they are perfect for the trails...). All 39 miles of them (that...

Re: 2013 Graves Mountain Trailrides in Virginia
Just a reminder to everyone that you still have time to register for the rally. There is no extra charge if you want to bring parts or other items to sell... So far, there are about ten M37s that are attending... :) We don't have cell phone coverage at the farm (we do have internet), so bring your F...

Re: XM-708
I need to update my website (now that it is back online...)... In the meantime, I have photos of my XM708 on my Facebook page.. I haven't fineshed the restoration on it by a long shot, but it does get out and about on a weekly basis (mainly making the run down to the dump with the household trash an...

Re: Cabell Garbee web site down?
Thanks for the prompt from Mark... Here is an update... :) My brother’s home which was the hosting site for gag.com (the parent host for my website with M37, tire, and other information) fell victim to forest fire on 11 June 2013. His house was very close to where the fire started, so they had very ...
