I had the pleasure to meet John yesterday at his AO. I told him my reason for visiting was to purchase 2 complete filter kits for my trucks, but really I wanted to meet him and have a look at his operations. It was a wonderful trip up the Mohawk River valley, and upon arrival I was impressed by...

Welcome to the site! Thank you for the pics of your fleet and best wishes to you! Rick

I'm seeking the following deuce parts. Send me a PM please: * Soft top (prefer new) * In-tank pump (good used) * E-brake cable * A pair of windshields I won't be attending, but the Eastern Mass SS convoy might be agreeable to transporting those items for me. Thanks, Rick

I live in a hot climate, where wearing a helmet is very uncomfortable. But so is not wearing a helmet, and thus I'm frequently breaking the skin on my bald head. Has anyone tried to use or fashion a "Parker Pumper" helmet for road use? The Parker Pumper is an off road helmet system that pumps...

I recently discovered there is a retro-fit fix for the deuce brake light switch, eliminating the hydraulic switch and replacing it with an air activated switch. I think I saw it on Erick's or Saturn Surplus. Rick

Jwade, thank you for your contribution to our hobby. You are a credit to your employer. To give some perspective to your operations, can you tell us the approximate number of monthly rolling stock sales, and what percentage of those sales require an EUC? And of those sales requiring an EUC, how...

It's been 7 years since the original post. Hopefully he made it off the mountain by now and found a solution. Rick

Wow, that looks great! Sure is nice to see it with the body off and ready to receive the drive train. I have a non military truck in the same stage. Rick

I think you answered your own question: The M715 is a long term project and you would like a beater/hauler for the short term. So you now have two projects. I suggest you increase your budget and/or allocate your existing hobby budget accordingly. We all share the same disease and the...

I once received a quote to ship a truck on a rack from Huston to Central America. The cost was a factor of three over Ro/Ro. As I recall, the racks can be loaded last, on top of the other containers. Thus they will accept some overhang on one or two sides. Rick
