    1942 indian 741 joins the family

    It will grind only when going into first from a stand still. After that, she shifts great. No gear grinding. The truck is the front corner of my 5 ton.

    1942 indian 741 joins the family

    As you can see by the pic, this one was civilianized as well. It'll be a pleasure to rough sand the chrome, prime and give her a coat of O.D. green.

    m35a2 radar scattering net and poles

    I'd say 250 is at the very high side. It better be unused, not dry rotted, etc. to even think of fetching that price. The spreaders are super cheap and tons of them on the market. Don't get me wrong, just my 2 cents. BTW, I have a desert colored truck so I'm always in the market for more...

    Deuce fuel and electrical problems

    Once they get running, they don't need the in-tank fuel pump. It sounds like the I.P. has died.
