My truck is on gl.

You guys are great, since you didn't use all those money gifts you can send them all to me for my wife's M923 she wants. She will be very greatful

I will give anybody my tax "return" for a truck.... it is worth about 10 K. The returning is towards the government.

When I first saw the title of this thread, I thought perhaps you were spearheading the sale of your truck on GL, seem to recall they were going to start offering that service. To bad you were not able to get the truck you used while in the service.

I know I'm reviving an old thread here, but Wreckerman related this story to me the other day after I related my own bizarre small world story involving Steel Soldiers; I hope one day you and "your" M927A2 reunite! I wish you luck on the eventual purchase!

It would be a worthy project to crowd source a purchase from WR and donate the truck to the OP.

WIN for WR for a successful truck flip.
WIN to the OP to re reunited with his rig
WIN for this group to do what's right

I don't know how to set it up, but I'd sure participate.

Don't know if I'd actually be able to contribute much financially to said cause (maybe something like $20 just to show my support and that I care) but I'd like to see that happen too. It'd be another example of how wonderful this group truly is! I'd be curious if such a thing would actually pan out. I'm not sure how to set it up either, but it has my support as far as mindset is concerned!

So my good friend wreckerman got it, well, all i need to do now is keep saving, and maybe, just maybe he will sell it to me when i have all my $. Does that sound like a plan wreckerman?

I still have the truck although I did modify it so I could pull a van trailer with it.

I have not modified anything else although I would like to straight pipe it, put in a less restrictive air cleaner and have the engine turned up a little.

I also have a 20 foot dropside bed that came off a Marine Corps truck so if I want to put it back to a long bed I want have to search far.

I did sell the original bed and cargo cover to a fellow member so it might still be available if someone wanted it back in completely original form.

It is for sale but since the long beds are somewhat rare it will not be cheap. I think I quoted someone $14,000.00 for the truck and van trailer.

Of course I'd cut Deuce-Coupe a break on it since there is a connection there.

 

[71DeuceAK]

Best of luck with that possibly working out for you two!

Another thought: What about a GoFundMe campaign to source the monies needed for Duece-Coupe to buy his former truck? It would thus be somewhat more universal and probably easier for everyone to contribute to. I don't know if the forum rules allow it to be linked to on here at all but it's something to explore in my opinion. Thoughts anyone? Not that I'd be any massive contributor but I'd "still" like to see it happen. We probably need a new thread for this anyway if it goes much further, the title of this is now so misleading LOL.

What about a GoFundMe campaign to source the monies needed for Duece-Coupe to buy his former truck?

I just went through a failed Indigogo campaign to raise money for my movie.

These things are iffy and there are some restrictions on what happens if you don't reach a goal.

I'd do a lot of research first.

 

[71DeuceAK]

Of course it will require more research, just something to consider in the meantime. It's not like there's truly a "deadline" in this case, which I can see causing issues unless a deadline was set.
