Does anyone know where I can find military parts around the bay area? I am looking for wheels that fit Rockwells. (going to mod some steelies so I can fit in my garage)

Any help is appreciated.

Almost all of those trucks were going for about 2K, that is amazing. I don't know what I would do with one of those trucks after I took the axles out though.

dump it on the side of the road in front of a junkyard, and set it on fire!! :S (just kidding)

Kurtuleas · 02-20-2007, 09:45 PM

What? An M35?

I would KILL to get my hands on one of those. And I fawkin missed that auction. Those things are BAD-ASS and beyond cool.

Do you know how much gear you can haul on one of those?

Talk about a kick-ass tow rig...sure you will only do 55MPH and will bounce all to hell in one of those seats, but they look fawkin cool.

I could tow my POS rig, my quad, my gear, my weapons, a gaggle of big-breasted strippers AND 20-30 kegs of beer in the back

How does that site exactly work? I was looking through the auctions in CA and a lot were closing in a few days with no bids and it said minimum bid was $50. I didnt see anything about a reserve price. It seems like someone could get a lot of cool shit for cheap, but there must be something I was missing....if not I am about to buy 32 pallets loaded with ammo cases for $50

Kurtuleas · 02-21-2007, 11:26 AM

Yeah,

I am pretty sure there is no reserve price. The government just wants to get rid of that shit.

Those M35's were a steal.

LOL. That's becuase you live in TUOLUME! Everything is far away...

Just kidding, I grew up in the Park, just a hop and a jump over the hill from you.....

Tracy Army Depot, the one in French Camp at at camp parks in Dublin are all fairly close to DiscoBay. I was pissed becuase all those M35's are always listed back east and this was the first time I saw a few sold close...
