Wow - here in New York Historic tags cost $28.75 "yearly". That will cost me $833.75 by 2050 "if they don't raise the rates"

Maybe it just wasn't seated properly or tight enough the other way. I was missing 1 wing nut and the remaining nut was loose. That made a huge difference when I replaced it. I also found a few holes in the fire wall. One from a missing wire grommet and the other from a torn speed cable grommet...

230,000 miles is great. Good thing to know for us long term hobby collectors. Did you end up with any internal engine issues or do any rebuilds?

german m1008 My 1009 was stationed in Germany and sent to Saudi Arabia to support "Storm one". It still has the original delineators with some desert-sand overspray on them. Glad to see your keeping the authenticity of BIAB1

Is that true? How so?

11 year old post; I assume the op has resolved the issue by now.

Rick; I believe the whole SS community was wondering why you haven't posted in a while. I'm glad you and your family are on the mend and hopefully you will not have any lingering side affects.

Don't forget BIAB1s big brother "Easter Find" that Cucvrus built is missing his sibling that moved to Germany.

Sounds like one or more of the battery cells are shorted. The battery load test will tell all.

A few years back. Maybe their stock is depleted.

I think you missed your calling. If your "Back Yard Mechanic" gig gets old you can always become a cartoon artist. Nice job

Try not to waist time second guessing why the PO did the resistor by-pass. The resistor rarely goes bad but??? maybe he was replacing a lot of GPs and thought that would solve the problem. My glow plugs in my M1009 have being going strong for more than 10 years now. But I don't start it or drive...

It sounds as if your truck has had several modifications. Unfortunately, "unless the PO has left you a modification log" you will have to figure them out for yourself. That's why I'm a firm believer of oem parts and repairs and not "re-designing" these trucks. Now you will have to trace each...

Glad you made it. You probably passed by my place on state rt 20 heading to Albany. You said your ride had a lack of power at 30-45 mph. Keep in mind, your driving a "Big Brick" and you slowed it down a bit more pushing allot of air with that 7ft plow. I trust photos of your new ride are in the...

Nice. That BEHR 383 green looks like a close match to the original after it dried. Now for the camo paint scheme and a ladder to get in and your ready for business.

Not sure about a Deuce but my M1008 and M1009 are both registered Historic in NY and registered as passenger vehicles. No issues that I recall during the registration process

Have you ever completed your painting project? Project photos?

After seeing those photos I think "just to be safe" you need to totally scrap that CUCV. There is just no repairing that thermal board.
