    Interesting MKT Vin Question

    Troop Seats

    Actually there was a 'one hole outhouse' although you could fit more but safety, safety, safety. Tailgate up, use a troop strap you have absolute confidence in and there you have it. Truck going down the highway, buttocks placed slightly over the tailgate, the newbs starring in absolute...

    Deuce Markings

    I'll leave this up to someone else. I thought you were looking for your own projects. I can't even see the markings on two of those pictures and on the third, they do not appear historically correct.

    Deuce Markings

    M29/M29C. Worth the time?

    You're kidding, right? 700 miles, one ride with a trailer. I'd be on that like an Ethiopian on an MRE.
