    our ranks are gone?

    When I was a VFW Post Commander, I got mail addressed to "Grand Dragon". Kinda liked that one. Not a good idea though. Eric CBVET

    our ranks are gone?

    I never had much rank while in the service, & didn't care. Don't really care now either. To quote Red Green, "Just call me handsome." Eric CBVET

    Dual Wheel Removal Tip

    In our shop in "Nam we had a dolly that was built especially for that purpose. It not only lifted the wheels, but had a tilt adjustment too which really helped. The ones I've seen advertised are $400 to $900, too rich for me. I've used a greased board or piece of sheet metal as has been...

    Boarding ladder

    Thanks drgreg! That looks a lot different than the ones I have. Mine are too short, leaving the steps at a bad angle. How does it "attach" to the truck? Eric CBVET

    Boarding ladder

    Would sure like to see some pictures of ladders as used on Deuces. I have 2 ladders that are too short. They're probably for trailers. Eric CBVET

    What size tires?

    An easy one. Does an M38A1 use the same size (600-16) tires as the Mighty Mite? Thanks, Eric CBVET

    crane truck in flood for sale

    First, being close by is worth a LOT. I'd look it over, & if it's a complete truck I'd buy it. I used to restore Studebakers, which for you kids out there were "way cool" wheels. Once picked up, free, a 1964 Gran Turismo Hawk with a Paxton supercharged engine. It had been submerged to the top of...

    CARC spray cans?

    Just picked up a Deuce with the green/brown/black CARC paint. Needs some touch-up. Is there any spray can paint available that matches well? Can anyone tell me the paint color numbers? Thanks for the help! Eric CBVET

    What is it?

    I just picked it up. I'm really impressed by the way it runs! I know I've read that the turbo was only added to reduce smoke, not improve performance, but it sure winds up a LOT faster than my non-turbo Deuce. And the 1100-20 Michelins (all 7 brand new!) do give it a little more speed. All...

    What is it?

    Well, I've bought the truck. Or I guess you could say my wife bought it. You see my wife works at a large farm, that is owned by another MV collector. Nice guy. When I bought the M813 he loaned me the money & my wife paid it back with a weekly payroll deduction. When he offered me this Deuce...

    Northern Tool, Your best pal

    Most of my hand tools are old "name" brands such as Snap-On, S&K, Craftsman, Proto, etc. Many wrenches & sockets are over 50 years old. I've bought some cheap Chinese wrenches for spares, and not been too happy. Many of the sizes were "a little off", & they stripped easily. Some were fine. Power...
