    New to me truck, #2

    The air scoop for the heater is backwards. They may have reversed it to keep the rain out, but this is not the way it was supposed to be installed. Nice looking truck...

    Non-turbo Deuce...good or bad??

    I've had a few non-turbo deuces. Some were dogs...some were strong runners. I think it depends upon the engine. I personally don't mind them, but some people don't like them because of the lack of the turbo whistle.

    Moving soybeans with the m818

    It is really good to see the trucks working. My trucks are almost always on a permanent vacation!

    Year of mfg, M 817

    I believe your truck is a 1971. I have an M817 manufactured in 1971 and there is a "71" in the VIN, too. By the way, the third digit is probably a letter. Mine is something like "04C."

    How long before Drexel "reloads"?

    This topic has been debated before. My opinion...these trucks will be drying up eventually. We can debate what "eventually means. Regardless, if there is a truck near you and you like it, ante up and get it.

    Who sells coolant cab heaters?

    Check with HALFTRACK on this list. He has several used, but complete, kits. I got one from him.

    Oil change interval on a Cummins 250 ? ?

    JWALLER is correct...even if you are not driving a truck a lot, the oil the should still be regularly changed. The data plate on the dash says to change the oil every 3,000 miles, unless you are operating in an extreme environment in which case you would need to change it more frequently.

    927a2 questions

    None of the NHC250s in the M939 and M939A1 were turbocharged. The A2 has the only turbocharged motor in the series...the 6CTA 8.3. The motors are all good...the trannys are stout. Personally, I like the A2s...but, the big problem with the A2s is that some of the parts (some of the air intake...

    New Deuce Owner

    Where exactly is Glen Arm, MD? I am in MD and have never heard of it. I am in MD and would enjoy talking trucks some time. I've owned many, many M35s over the years. I believe it was around 20 M35s the last time I counted! Contact me...I'd be happy to share everything I know.

    Spray Cans clog on use.

    I find that certain tips work better and continuously. Take the tip off a can that works well and reuse it.

    Water Buffalo

    If you find one, expect to pay over $1K if it can handle potable water. I bought one on GL for $909 (plus tax and the 10% fee). I also bought one retail for $1,200.

    m35a2 prices?

    There really is no way to answer this question accurately. I've gotten trucks for as little as $700 and I've lost trucks that I've bid up to $5,700. If someone else has a crush on "your" truck, expect to pay heavily for it. The best recommendation I can give you is don't get too hung up on a...

    A pic of two of the three M925A2s...

    I try...but, unfortunately, the trucks are coming out too quickly and I don't have enought money. :wink: This is probably going to be it for me for a while. I've said it before, but I mean it this time (I think)...I've got three trucks that are not even home yet.

    A pic of two of the three M925A2s...

    I am attaching a pic of two of M925A2s that was taken by a friend. I can't wait to get the third home. I intend to paint it solid 383 green. Enjoy.

    XM818 parts? what are they worth?

    I'd probably say they are worth a couple hundred bucks to someone who was looking for one.
