    Hello from Maine

    Hello from NE Oklahoma. I too want a deuce and may get one someday. I currently have an M-1008 CUCV truck that is being repaired (smashed pax door). I know you're going to LOVE that truck. I drove them for years in the 80's and 90's. I will never forget "ALWAYS DRAIN THE AIR" from the tanks.

    My M1008 with a damaged wing...

    I too was afraid they would try to total it because of it's age and yes, I did remind them that it is a genuine, well maintained, flawless (is that even possible?) MV. If they had decided to total my truck, I would have paid for the repair out of my pocket. It took me 20 years to find this...

    Oil Cooler Aluminum Line Leak

    I am fortunate to have a metal genius right down the road from me. He is expensive (and crude) but the only things he cannot weld are a broken heart and the crack of dawn. Everything else is fair game. I firmly believe he could weld plywood if I gave him a dowel rod. As for wrapping stuff...

    My M1008 with a damaged wing...

    Fortunately, we both have State Farm Insurance and yes, the owner of the Ranger is paying for the damage. It is in the shop now. I have already ordered the paint (quartertonparts.com) and it is on it's way. The shop has located a new fender, door, and hinges. I hope it will be repaired...

    Oil Cooler Aluminum Line Leak

    I walked into my garage and found a black mess all over my garage floor. Thank goodness I had sealed the concrete! Fortunately, I was able to clean up the mess. After a great deal of investigation, I found the oil leak. Apparently, the fan shroud vibrated enough to rub a hole through the...

    My M1008 with a damaged wing...

    A little over a month ago I bought an M1008. This truck was beautifully restored. I found it in North Carolina, flew there on a Friday, bought the truck and drove it back to Oklahoma. It ran awesomely (is that a word?). I love my truck. Last week, I made a delivery from Oklahoma to St...

    Howdy from missouri

    Howdy from Oklahoma Hello Smokindodge... I too am from Missouri (St. Louis and Festus). Where are you located? Does your M35 burn diesel or gas? I had an M35 in Korea (1980) that had a Chevy 327 that burned mogas. It was the fastest deuce in the country.
