    I want a Mule

    Hey Clinto, I didn't think the mule would fit in the back of the M105 without taking off the front basket. Does it fit in and you can close the tailgate without removing items?

    Ignition switch box

    I don't have one of those switch boxes but I installed a toggle switch with an ON, ON switch so it grounds the magnito. I got the switch from radio shack. I've thought about going to this switch box but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

    The Wife is Screamin, For Joy or Pain, I can,t tell

    super nice score. I love the look of those trucks. You don't see too many tippers around either. Focus on the engine panels, paint, brakes and tires and enjoy it for a while.

    Deuce recovery adds another to the fleet

    Just won a nice deuce on GSA. The scoop is she sat in El Centro CA. for 27 yrs. She's a 1985 truck with 2365 miles. Checked all fluids, topped off and bled brakes, threw in some batteries and she fired up. Filled the tires and drove her home. Best of all, she came with an NOS canvas cab...

    Help, along the road, locked brakes

    my truck did the same thing to me. I broke a bleeder valve on a wheel cylinder and "whallah" my brakes let go. My issue was not the airpack but the needle sized return hole in the Master cylinder was clogged. did you accidentally mix synthetic and regular brake fluid? that'll jell it up...

    Camp Delta/Tower Park April

    It looks like ALL spaces from cabins to tents are booked solid. Anyone out there got extra room for a deuce, a mule and a 741 Indian??? I need a place to crash.

    CA DMV!!!! get out your wallet!

    You should have registered it Historical Vehicle unless you planned on using it for commercial/daily use. Way cheaper and no one that I know of has been hassled with historical plates. What part of Cali are you in?

    1942 indian 741 joins the family

    finished the restoration.... Hey gang, Just to clearify, the serial numbers show it's a 1941 so my original post isn't exactly correct! I just finished installing the re-upholstered seat, fired her up and took her for a spin up and down the street. It's a crappy day today (cloudy and...
