Finally won the Deuce

[rongaudier]

I think I did pretty good on this one. Did not get a chance to preview, but I'll hope for the best. Good news is it is only 75 miles from the house.
This is the 4th GL auction I've won, but the first that required an EUC.
Hopefully won't be to much of a hassle.

that is the one listed as a m109 .
I was bidding on that one and the one with the hardtop and fiberglass troop seats in back but was not sure it would still be in the truck after the euc cleared .
glad i backed off so you could get it I really have my hands full already

 

[whyme]

it will be a few months before you will be seeing up close. nice win, almost bid on that one myself, kinda far drive for me but the prices up here are going up quick. congrads. buy a gauge set and start getting fluids and spares ready.

 

[PaulbusMax]

Good job. I keep losing, but will keep trying.

I remember there was a really nice fella at the Georgia Rally that took those instrument panels, put all new gauges in them, and painted it to look better than new. Can't remember his name, but I got some fantastic chains from him.

I took a look at that myself, glad a member got it. I hope she fires right up and runs like old Faithful for you. Glen

Those were killer chains weren't they. He is just south of Ft.Knox. Dang! His name escapes me right now.

Congratz!

I wanted that starts/runs/drives M109, but didn't have any bids in at that price.

Anyone else notice the non-running winch truck with instruments removed sell for $2500?

 

[91W350]

It looks like the removal of the instruments is killing their value, I think we will get over it soon, but they sold several trucks today that seemed like bargains. It appears some were removed by cutting the wires, it must be really tough to properly disconnect those!

Yeah but that nice fella was asking 450.00 for the gauge package. If you do the math you could do it yourself for a third.

I was doing well with the 12 step program but at those rock bottom prices I had to bite on another Air Force deuce, 1988 with the dual brakes and dropsides, missing the radiator, windshield, a door and of course the dangerous gauges! Love the AC Mack style cab appearance!

 

[starfire350]

Why would it be several months before he sees the truck?
I'm interested to see how the whole process goes getting it paid for and getting it home I almost bid on one of those myself. my dear lease is down the road from there I have been passing by there alot lately. Keep us posted on the proccess and congratulations can't wait to get one myself

I bought ALL new gauges for my dump deuce...... I think I paid Saturn about $35/40 for each of the small gauges and maybe $50 for the speedo and I paid acetomatoco (RIP) $50 for the NOS tach, plus shipping.

Believe me, I wish I could replace all the gauges and stickers (and buy a can of rapco spray paint) for $150. I'd do it in all 7 of our trucks.

 

[TIGERFANS2]

with TWO nice seats........ time for a happy dance!

So how can you tell if it runs or not? Do the auctions specify that it is a running vs non-running vehicle?

 

[velociT]

70 business days for your first EUC is a couple months.

So how can you tell if it runs or not? Do the auctions specify that it is a running vs non-running vehicle?

They will say starts/runs/drives/jump starts if they start. My truck was listed as a starts/runs truck, and it did. Still didn't have any brakes...

 

[mistaken1]

Nice truck. Sweet price!

Around here rust bombs go for twice that and the nice trucks ........ shaking head in disbelief.
