Looking to sell M29C Weasel project that I am unable to complete as am more concerned with vintage Dodges
Most of the major work has been completed…what remains is assembly of suspension/drive line. For details contact directly at <ringovt@gmail.com>
The Weasel is an M29C missing actual serial number but I estimate is mid to late production that I acquired from a monastery back in the early 90’s. The body tub has had new skirt and hat channels and all components are NOS from John Vetters stash of Weasel parts…was stripped down to hull and all suspension parts renewed including two new springs the other two re-arched… compete set of all new boogie wheels with support arms that have been set up with shims but need to next have seals installed….tracks have been rebuilt with Russ Morgan’s belt system …NOS front idlers and axel need to be installed…NOS windshield , all new seat cushions with backs…has original engine in it which runs well with T90 transmission and have completely rebuilt and detailed engine done in Vetter’s shop using only NOS Studebaker Champion engine components which came from another parts Weasel that I had planned to install….Engine has been run on test stand and performs well. The parts Weasel is also an M29C complete but missing tracks and the bottom well rusted from exposure to the elements but would make for more good parts or perhaps an ambitious restoration…
Also have available NOS WW2 BCR 508 radio set with original crate and invoice paper work…includes BC604 transmitter ,BC603 receivers complete with dynamotors, phantom antenna, with FT 237 mount rack, FT235 table mount and CH 74 enclosed cabinet…all components are new acquired from a ham radio enthusiast who had gotten them surplus.
