Here's one: One Friday night, I suffered a small breakdown in my Deuce. The air line that runs from the firewall to my air pressure guage broke apart. This of course resulted in a massive air loss, so rather than risk driving it home (40-50 miles) I plugged the line with a small piece of a stick and drove it to my girlfriend's (now my wife) house (15 miles). I then was in the process of getting the parts to fix it when I was called to go back to work earlier than planned (I work offshore); so my deuce is sitting in my g/f's driveway waiting for me to come home and I can fix it.
She (my g/f) had the day off, so she was leaving her house around 2:30 to pick her son up from school, when a car pulled up and 2 men in cammies got out. They approached her and explained they were M.P.'s from a local Army base (Camp Beauregard) and told her they had received a call saying there was a suspicious truck at her house and the caller thought it had been stolen from the base. She explained to them where and when I bought it, they then went on to explain they were only following up on the call and let her know that usually when base vehicles were stolen by soldiers going AWOL, it was usually Hummers or vans stolen, and they felt it unlikely that someone would have stolen a deuce......
She told me it freaked her out, but when she explained it all to them, they thanked her and left. She then emailed me to give me a heads up that if anyone approached me when I got back and was working on it, that was the deal.....
Second one, had the neighbor try the "You can't drive that", he threatened to call the police. I asked him to PLEASE call the police because he had blocked the road with his p/u and was guilty of unlawful restraint and blocking a public road.
He thought about it and moved. I smiled and drove by.
I have had a LEO come to my cousins house where the deuce was parked and pass the message to me he had BETTER not catch the deuce on the road because it was illegal to drive them on public roads.
Mostly though, my experiences have been positive.
I let a friend of mine (who's motor T in the LANG) borrow the truck for a static display for a fundraiser they were doing for kids, and he got stopped by a La State Policeman who checked the paperwork and told my friend he had never seen an M/V with all it's paperwork in that good of an order. My paperwork (registration, insurance, copy of La law concerning privately owned M/V's etc) are kept inside an old Army maintenence binder, whick is inside an OD waterproof pelican case).
