    Rally's near NW Montana? OK within 500 miles?

    That's a great idea, Soldier! Formulate your plan, gather your resources and let us know when you've got it organized. Check with the weather forecaster "Dark Cloud" for the best window of opportunity. Remember that the element of surprise yields a formidable strategic advantage. Failure is...

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    That second B-36 certainly is LOW and SLOW.... Kinda makes you wonder if he was having performance problems once airborne... BUT THEN he seems to find some power, pulls back on the stick and begins a gradual climb toward altitude while also executing a turn. By the two different camera angles...

    WTH, Found a tank today.

    Here's a quick test to answer this predicament: 1. Does the DATA PLATE still say "U.S. GOVERNMENT PROPERTY". IF YES, go to #2. 2. Has OWNERSHIP been transferred to "you" PRIOR to the recovery of said PROPERTY of UNCLE SAM? (I.E.: Do you have an SF-97 releasing said item from Uncle's...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Removal and replacement is relatively easy. 1. Center punch the rivet heads - the two "bumps" on the flattened part of the rods. 2. Drill out the rivet - the drill diameter will be approximately 1/2 of the head diameter - I don't recall the actual dimension. The holes in the replacement parts...

    Thank you. She is unique. We had considered modifying the 220KAK into an "rolling palace" complete with windows, RV-type entry door(s), and all the comforts of a travel trailer. However, once we realized that we'd be butchering what may well be the last of her species, we have decided to keep...

    Katrina Deuce Story - MUST READ

    Another Anniversary, Another BUMP. Although this thread was bumped at the beginning of the 2018 Hurricane Season, today is the 13th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's landfall. So, I'll bump it again. There are many lessons to be learned in Sarge's Katrina experience. There is much for...

    Indeed it would! And I favor the M275's for their multi-fuel power plants... But that's because we already have a spare Multi-Fuel still in the crate from a 1990's rebuild that came with our Deuce. Although this tractor IS interesting, we have already acquired a 1969 vintage XM818 out of the...
