FWIW, I changed the oil for the first time in my deuce. It was a learning experience when it came to positioning the Baldwin filters properly. (May go for screw-on style in the future) I added 2 quarts of Marvel's Mystery Oil with the SAE 30 Rotella oil. I swear the truck runs quieter now.

Congrats on the win!

Has anyone ever filed a claim with Gulfway? They may be difficult to deal with if the truck is damaged.

But your truck looks great!

I think it would seep out around the in tank fuel pump cover. My deuce has some old diesel residue there which I think is due to this very thing happening. There are 10 screws that hold the pump in the tank, but there is no gasket. It's just metal on metal. (at least that's how it is on my truck.)

Welcome to the club! As everyone said before, do your research. Make sure it has the LDT465 engine and not the 427 that was common in the M35A1 for a period of time. The big thing to do is decide what you want on the truck and what you can live without. A basic truck with no cab heater, soft...

Got my in tank pump installed yesterday and the truck was primed and started with no problems. Thank you Olympic Controls! I love how easy these trucks are to work on, even if everything is oversized.

Dude, it sounds like this truck will be a hassle for you. Maybe you should give me the guy's number and I'll take it off his hands. :razz: j/k good luck with the purchase.

If I had the space I'd be all over that truck. Gassers are rare and a bit quieter than the multifuels from what I've heard.

Just want to give a shout out to Rivired for giving me his old driver's seat. It's not the prettiest, but it is in good condition. I certainly couldn't complain about the price. Thanks again!

There are a lot of variations with these trucks. Find the one that is equipped the way you want it to be before you start bidding. Consider whether or not you want a winch, cab heater, hard top, air shift differential, turbo, gun ring mount, fiberglass troop seats, etc. A lot of this stuff...

Great photos. Looked like it was a lot of fun!

lol @ numbers. That's a great image. :-D If this helps raise money, then I'm all for it. Just be sure to paint it back proper when the fundraiser is over.

Wow, a Tatra in the UK! Good luck on those tiny roads. lol Congrats on the purchase! We want more pictures when you get it home.

My deuce came with a bridge place bracket, but no numbers. (See avatar) Can someone recommend a place to purchase a set of bridge plate numbers? From reading previous threads here, it looks like I need a set of 10 numbers. 5 on each side to keep them properly secured, or do I just need the 0 & 8...

Great to hear it was such an easy fix. :-D

That's an odd truck. Who makes those?

Some people are over sensitive about GL. You pay $2500 for a truck and expect it to have everything? Maybe I'm a little desensitized to such stuff, but you are lucky to find a truck that runs around here for that price.

It was already posted five posts back. :wink:

Great video.
