Hi Guys,
Just registered and thought I'd say..... "Hey."
Got a '77 C303 hard top civilian rescue, 12V with a PTO winch coming from out west in a month or so. Can't wait to get it.
Aside from radios, I don't plan on changing anything major. It's got nice buckets and good 315's on it, that will do just fine. Why fix what ain't broke.
Been wheelin' for 30+ years here in Minnesota and would like to try and get to the Bad-lands for an adventure with this one. Maybe farther out west if po$$ible.
It's my second Volvo ORV. There's also a BV 202 in the shed. That's what sold me on the 303. Good tough stuff and pretty easy to work on.
I also collect and restore big US WWII trucks and armor just to keep the wife on her toes.
Hopefully I can contribute something to the forum.
C Ya, John

Sure.
Here's the 303 I'm waiting on. Can't wait, gonna have some fun with that.
The rest is most of the running big stuff and a couple rare ones yet to be restored
The BV 202. Found this within 2 hours of my house.
Served with the US Army in Alaska. A CRREL vehicle.
1943 International Harvester M9A1
Most were Lend-Lease
3433 made.
IDF grabbed this one after WWII
There's one in Canada as original and complete.
Towing an M-10 ammo trailer
1944 Ward LaFrance Heavy Wrecker
A WWII Vet that I shipped back from Europe
Served with the Dutch Army until the 80's after The War
1941 Autocar 7144-T with Garwood Swing Boom Crane
Possibly only one in existence.
1939-40 GMC AFKX Small Arms Repair Van
Less than a dozen known to exist in the States
A really cool camper maybe?
1943 White 444-T
2751 made. A rare one
Very complete and solid, next one to get restored.
This one was only 20 miles away from me.
