Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing accademy.:cookoo:
There are several of us "Green Iron Addicts" in the NE AL area.
If you get down this way (I am about 60 miles SE of Redstone) give me a yell.
I'll put something special on the grill.
The only thing that lies more consistantly than a career politician is a deuce fuel gauge.rofl
That's what the fuel can holder on the step is for.
Get a paint stirring stick and keep it in the cab......best way to guage the fuel in a deuce.
Not to be a smart azz but did you open the fuel...
We had a tank transport unit near us in Korea.....occassionally they would haul our tanks to the range verses road marching them along the tank trails......about a 30 mile drive.
They are awesome but as pointed out they will suck the bottom out of the fuel tanks.
I think that unit had a 1200...

These are (for...
Where is the jenny located?
I am from Alabama so have little or no experience in extreme cold weather starting.
Common sense tells me that the genny needs to be in an insulated enclosure that could be heated with LPG or (in an emergency) wood.
The air intake and exhaust can be ran out...
This was my bobber.
The guy that bobbed mine mis-judged the axle distance so I couldn't use the M-105 bed I had.
I ended up liking the flatbed better.....I made the dual exhaust myself.
I vote for the first flag too.
