I agree with WSU. Assuming it isn't to far to drive, go check it out. If it passes it's inspections as listed in the TM's then drive it home. Just take it easy at first as you learn the capabilities of the truck.
Not exactly a great endorsement for GL. I wonder why they posted it.
1. You can no longer buy a truck (or anything there) for under $150.
2. That truck is beat. It's ready to rust to the ground.
3. It's in Hawaii. Great if you want to spend a couple grand shipping it.
Open the three way signal switch on the steering column. The mechanical switches need to be cleaned. Lightly file the contact points will get power for both the signals and the brake lights. I had to do the same thing with my truck.
Hi all,
I currently own a deuce and have a class-A CDL. I obtained my CDL mainly to get a 5-ton or larger truck later. Here's my question, do 5-tons and larger ex-military trucks need to stop at weigh stations? If I registered it as a historical vehicle, would it be exempt?
I haven't seen...
Restore it!
Please don't mod it though. Those old trucks are getting harder and harder to find. The M37 is like the old WWII Jeeps which were once plentiful, but over time many off roaders got their hands on them and modified them until they were unrecognizable as a military vet. Now it's...
I used Uship.com to find a shipper for my deuce. It's like ebay. Post what you have to ship and shippers bid down the cost to ship it for you. You can even pick the shipper of your choice based on reputation. You don't necessarily have to pick the cheapest bidder.
My Deuce is coming together slowly, but surely. Next on the agenda is to repair the starter cable.
What day is the parade? I missed out on it last time.
It's been my experience that "no start" could be dead batteries or a blown engine. It's part of the fun of buying government surplus. You don't know what you're getting until it's in your possession. :-)
