    As the minutes and hours tick down, especially for the early arrivals to the 2014 SS Georgia Rally, I would like to call this forum to order and ask each of you (literally or figuratively) to take a knee.... Heavenly Father, Grand Marshal of every individual convoy or singular vehicle about to...

    Red's deuce/camper project

    Red, By sliding your bumper to "the last bolt holes" you've compromised the structural attachment and hence the SAFETY of the bumper for protective purposes. You've also lost the torque moment effect of TWO bolts on each of the Bumper Gussets, effectively creating HINGE POINTS the will allow...

    Toys for Tots 2014 Events

    This evening's AARON TIPPIN Concert and fund raiser was a SUCCESS. I don't yet have any reports of TOYS or FUNDS collected, but the participation was great! I took a number of photos (and will post the best ASAP after compiling them with those others took) and had a very pleasant visit...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I sure didn't want to be a party-pooper. You've done some good work. Just figured it's better to consider those thoughts than to get a hefty citation for not fitting in your right-of-way. Carry on.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Looks good for parades and patriotism.... ... however: Your outward canting of the staffs places your vehicle's overall width OVER 8 ft. and may be a problem in some jurisdictions. You may have just crossed that OVERSIZE VEHICLE line. 8-1/2 feet is legal on interstate highways and on many...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Replaced fuel filters and cleaned cannisters in preparation for the 2014 Toys For Tots activities. The first event is Tuesday evening - an Aaron Tippin benefit concert as a local nightclub. The Deuce will be a "gate guard" and may just bring Mr. Tippin in ! We shall see.....

    Deuce Parts Quick Reference Spreadsheet

    Thank you very much for compiling and posting this resource. The following was posted on 11/2/2012. I did not see any response and the "error" still is listed on the spreadsheet. Presently, O'Reilly part number 15211 comes up on their website as either a CONTROL ARM BUSHING (for a classic...

    To Remember: Operation Market Garden 1944

    By my rough count, including motorized, peddle-powered, trailers and trailered (and a bike on a bumper), wheeled & tracked vehicles, that convoy was comprised of almost THREE HUNDRED MVs ! ! ! That is OUTSTANDING ! ! !

    Inexpensive camper/utiliy box for m35a2

    Our 1960 vintage 220KAK 26' Box Van Trailer (Ammo Toter) has those old "bullet lights" for all the running and marker lights. A local truck parts house has a bunch of NOS red & yellow lenses and bases at very reasonable prices - I didn't see any clear lenses though.

    M35a2 dilemma

    Yes,, and as I recall, (from the first semi-tractor I ever drove - a Diamond REO) the "little" flag was held up in its stowed position by air pressure, and when you lost it, the bright red booger dropped and became a lethal sharp-edged object hanging in front of you just waiting for the...

    WHAT?!? $756.32 Won EVERYTHING! (M35A2)

    Thanks, Rory. I have the metal parts and pieces, would just "need" the rubbers. There's a local truck parts house that has those for about what any shipping costs would be. My only excuse for having not already mounted them is procrastinating over the very little bit of straightening that the...

    WHAT?!? $756.32 Won EVERYTHING! (M35A2)

    Thank you, Michael. We are still enjoying the ARK and the trailers in the motorpool now as well. Still looking for an M818 (or possibly M931/M932) Tractor. Praying blessings upon you and yours. John

    Modern Russian Army in the photos.

    Not exactly true. The US Interstate Highway System and its design specification ARE a Cold War Military System that the public is "allowed" to use in peacetime. Yes, there are segments of straight and flat (though sometimes inclined) that are essentially auxiliary airstrips - aka: runways - but...
