Hi John,
Do you think that you could post the photos on the G503 site itself. I realize it is a user-unfriendly system but i'm sure that I and others would be most interested in seeing your vehicle. It sounds like it should sell pretty quickly. The wider the viewing audience the better.
Good luck.
Philip

gijonney,

I have sent you several PM's with my email address requesting photos of your M3A1 Scout Car for sale. My last PM to you stated "I have sent you my email address several times" and I again included my email address. Your reply was this: "don't be dick". I do not understand your attitude. You asked for my email address and I gave it to you. However, you have failed to provide any photos or provided any reasonable explanation as to why you have not sent any photos of the described M3A1 Scout Car for sale. It appears this is a dead end issue.

TopKick, I also sent an email but no reply. I offered to post photos on this site for him but haven't heard back.
Looking for a positive he might be away or the email could have gone to spam.As you suggested there might be some other explanation.

John,
Can I ask you about the radio fixation.I am considering installing one in my scout car. Are the footman loops in the position as recommended in the manual and do you know where I can obtain similar straps?
Thanks
Philip

I used the radio install manual for scout car it gives the location for the footman loops. Also my straps came with the mount. I did not mount the power cables. possible you can have the straps made. you can buy webbing and hardware on the internet,
I have made straps for other projects this way and they look great.
Thanks John B

First I would like to thank phillip for posting photos for me THANKS. I will measure the straps for you as soon as I can. Still doing displays for veterans day even though it was days ago.
THE GOOD PART
this scout car comes with many spares .
gas .050 with tanks and hoses trolley pintal and shield
3 rear seats. 2 vacume boosters,take out (good) flywheel and clutch (ring gear replace)
2 spare generators 1 starter (cores) 1 complete transfer case +one with broken case, crankshaft,oil pan, oil filter can,
bell housing, engine pulleys and belt adjuster, radio power cables,pioneer tools, cargo net, top bows and old top,antenna mount and base,2 gas cans 1 water can, siren new battery 1 year old,fender mounted mirrors, saw with bag, tow rope, all rear bumper tripod brackets and one 1919 tripod, Has a florida title.
THE BAD PART
brakes are hard to stop( all looks good could be I do not have the vacume correct), Some rear main seal leak and a small oil spot under trans. right fuel tank has started to drip ( remove and tank seal should do it) Does not get driven much and that does not help and part of it.
I WILL NOT SELL ANY SPARE SEPERATE
