Tale of two Deuces

[Rhino 5/4]

Good day today. Sandbox built and full and had enough to make a pile by the motorpool.

 

[Rhino 5/4]

Airpack all cleaned up and ready to go back together. May go to green acres sat and get a few things and size up getting the parts truck home. I want to take the winch off and put on the 109 and will be easier with air tools and a skid steer.

Does this look about right for insurance? Both deuces 3500 ea 5000 m725 40k for fj40. This is a quote from Hagerty. I'm clueless with this stuff

.
Seems reasonable compared to where I started shopping insurance...
My first try was more than double the money.

Had a great day today. We went to green acres and retrieved some missing parts for the deuces and located some of the all fiberglass seats and backs and headboards.
I was second guessing myself on the trailer I picked out but I think there is minimal rust if any and I can always use the bins in the shop when I decide to dis assemble the box

Planning on pulling the winch off and putting on the M109.
Curiosity got the best of us despite the 100+. Pulled the bolts and cracked it open and appears to be a complete Pulled motor. I could see enough of the turbo and was rusted so not a new crate motor but definitely gonna see what I can get it for to use for parts.

Hell yea i think you should cut up the camo netting and make bikinis out of it ! With all those cuts in it could make for some nice veiws and be sure to post pics when you find models to wear them ! And you better start working faster or your great helpers are going to discover girls and this big green camping with gramps will be out the window and you will hear nothing but crickets !

VIN inspection done. Insurance done. Waiting on appraisal so we can be all legal. Not a MV but beautiful none the less.

Anyone who willingly fools with a camouflage net needs help now. A brain plummer.

You have never lived until you are in MOPP 4 at 02:00 taking net down, or putting it up.

Yes thats the plan, I didnt want to make her shine too much being we dont have tags yet. I could see PD pulling me over wanting to ogle at such an awesome beast and " by the way can I see your license and registration?"

Retrieved the trailer today and went shopping and found a few interesting items not sure what same are but green or tan so has to be usable some how.

 

[Rhino 5/4]

Soft top cut with knife and not usable, AL steps for the 109, rest of the camo netting, 2 sections of temporary shelter, some sleeves for something, front of a deuce cargo top maybe, never used top for something. Metal bows and fiberglass posts. And two sticks of something with a pocket clip that gets 950 degrees probably not be carrying that with me hehe. Set of the mysterious square light covers. Needs a little straightening but usable. Didn't get the top with the turret hole. Yet.... anyway hehehe

Greetings all. We have been hanging out in the RV section with a M725
ambulance build and thought we will come bother the neighbors for a while with our new additions to the family. We got the last one home Saturday and will try and revive them together. I pulled the injectors on the 109 and soaking them and poured marvel in the cylinders and let them soak for a few days. I kicked the case in neutral and put tranny in gear and spun the engine over with a bar and pleased to find she was still free. Ordering filters this week hoping to see if we can get her to bust off this weekend. I'll do the same to the winch truck after we get the 109 running. Kinda teeter tottering between them and working through the unknowns. Neither truck has a title so along with my misadventures with those shiny things called tools I will post the process of titles and registration. Maybe someone will find
everything helpful, others maybe comical and some may just pray for it all to end with no loss of life hehe.

Did you get a BILL of SALE from the owner?
