I have a bunch of deuce rims and tires. The tires are on the rims. Tires are not great but are usable and are holding air perfectly. I can bring them to the rally if anyone is interested. $10 each. I'm not bringing them unless someone wants them. Please pm me if interested.

I also have a few oil filter canisters and a primary fuel filter canister if anyone needs them. I put spinon filters on my truck.

I plan on bringing an almost complete winch setup for a Deuce if anybody is interested. This includes frame extension brackets with hardware(still bolted to the frame rails that were torched off), winch, old frayed cable, bumper, chain, pto shaft, and in cab control lever. No PTO is included. I am asking $800 for all, I don't really want to separate any of it other than possibly the shaft and control lever seeing as it is all in tact right now. PM me if you are interested.

Boiled peanuts and Ice Cold Milk.

It's the only Combo I've found better than boiled peanuts and ice cold beer. I'm a milk lover too.

History of boiled peanuts...
Georgia is one of the primary peanut states. Dothan Alabama hearlds the National Peanut Festival, immediately after the harvest. In Oct, I believe. It's been a while.
Anyway, in Georgia, we are known for those planter peanuts. It's a specialty peanut of special size and moisture content, specificially planted and harvested for planter peanuts. If to big, they don't use them. So, over the last 20 years or so, many of us have "cheated". We find Valencia peanuts from New Mexico, which are much larger, almost twice the size of planters style peanuts. We like the bigger ones for boiling.
Then, some farmers around here, who love boiled peanuts said, "What the heck", and started bringing in just a little bit of seed, and would plant a half acre to acre of Valencia peanuts next to their 1000 acres of Planters, just so they could give to family and friends and boil some up. Today, it is rare we import from New Mexico. Farmers don't usually plant many unless they sell boiled peanuts commmercially, or in just about every other gas station around, this time of year.
One other thing. You don't just boil any ole peanut. You buy "Green" peanuts. No, not OD green. And they only last about two weeks before they start to dry out, and that's with slight refridgeration. Some say they can keep green peanuts for months in walk in coolers. I don't know. I do know if not preserved correctly, they will develop a fungus, so keep them cool, unless already dried out by the farmer in his drying bins. Anyway, for the best overall peanut boil, get green ones in August, Sept, and early Oct, depending on harvest time, put in lots of salt, and boil away. Now that's some **** good eatin'.

I just picked up a half bushel full of fresh green peanuts and I'm boiling now. Come see me at the Ga. Rally and if I have any left, sit down and enjoy some with me. I hope to have some there. I might pick up another bushel and just cook them on location. Bring your own beer.

By the way, you can freeze boiled peanuts and save them. If not frozen in the briine they are cooked in, I would eat them within a month. If you freeze them in the salty water you cooked them in, you can keep them for six months. Just pop them in the microwave, thaw, then put in a bowl and heat them up to a small boil. They will be almost as fresh as the green ones you cooked months earlier, and still, absolutely delicious. They grow on you. I'll see if I can bring up some uprooted cotton plants for the northerners too, so they can bring a cotton boll home to their kids and let them see how long it takes to pick the seeds out of it. Eli Whitney's cotton gin was amazing.

Dell, unless poppop brings a mess, you better figure on about a bushel for me (the rally is only four days), and who know how much for my crew. We had Amy (DHWife) eating them one year. Fortunately the Yankees will leave them alone, which just means more for us!:beer:

I have one section of troop seats for a 5 ton 800 series, and one section for a 900 series. Both are cheap..........

900 series bed has a longer spacing between the holes. And both sections of troop seats are fiberglas.

I've decided to sell the ENG-3 Lube trailer (Trailer and enclosure ONLY). This is the same one I stripped down the other year and mounted one of my generators in. I am going to take the genny back off of it and get rid of the trailer. I'm asking $500 for the trailer and i can deliver it to the GA rally if anybody wants it. BUT I need to have a commitment before i drag it down to GA. It'll be a bit silly looking, but for a one way trip I am pretty sure I can pull it with the M1031.

The trailer weighs 3300 pounds without the frame work and aluminum cover, so another 100 pounds or so for that.. PM me if you want it and we can work out details.

I might not see your message if you reply to this thread, so please PM me if you're interested. I'm going to be out of town for a couple weeks with limited access to the internet, so please be patient if it takes me a while to respond. I'll try to get pics of the hard top and air compressor when I get home if anyone is interested. All prices are cash. I plan to be at the rally from Friday night until Sunday morning. I'm only bringing the above listed items if a deal is made ahead of time.
