First Deuce

[notso]

So after reading here and getting a bad hankerin for a tuck, I finally got one.

Thanks to Wreckerman for helping me with all the GL work


And here it is. Im hoping that since it is tan I can avoid the addiction to "green iron"


it is a '68 Kaiser '35A2 W/W

2400 Mi and 1430 Hrs on the clock when I picked it up.

yea,I wanted that truck too.I was going to bid on it till I found out deep pockets wrecker was looking at it.Then I let it go cause I knew he would bid more than I could afford.Nice,Non-Updated truck.Original old style lights,had light panels,and I think it was a sprag truck(If it doesn't have a switch under the dash make sure you ALWAYS start in 1st gear).

Definately a nice truck. As for avoiding the "green disease," you can forget about it. Tan is "just another shade of green." You've already got it!

Nice truck!

My first thought was "Nice truck!".... my second was "Casper the Friendly Ghost!"

It was a pleasure doing business with you NOTSO........FT wanted that deuce till he found a broke dic wrecker to add to his motley collection of scruffy MV's.
There is no cure for the "green iron addiction".
Just keep buying them until the men in the white coats show up with the net.

Congratulations! Good looking truck. How was the first drive?

Tan is nothing more then an upgraded version of military green. You have the Green/Tan sickness. Sorry...........

I refer to the tan addiction as "simplex 2"! You have a disease that you just need to learn how to live with(never really goes away and flairs up really bad on occasions). If you stay away from forums and shows, it can be unnoticeable to others.

Great! I think I got over 30MPH!

Welcome fellow addict. I have a " simplex 2" deuce and love it. However, yours has that winch thing on its lip that mine is missing. I suffer from winch-less simplex 2.
