Hey Zack, welcome to the site!

I know I'm a little ways from you, but I have several deuces and a 5ton, and would be willing to let you drive and teach you all about them. I'm in Columbia, SC.

The West Texas Detachment of the SS welcomes you aboard, Zack

We're too far off to be of physical help, but will keep you in our thoughts. Please keep us all posted.

Good luck!

....welcome...

WELCOME to SS,Zack. Best advice is to read the several threads in the posts on TRANSPORTATION. If you can check oil,other fluids,drive belts,tire pressure and general operation...and are a reasonably knowledgeable mechanical person...there should not be any problem you could not take care of. Remember,these were MILITARY vehicles and were taken care of by young kids with just a bit of training for taking care of them. Good luck and drive safe....

I am a mechanic.. so it should go well....now just have to purchase....I hope things go my way i have several i am looking at... some running some not sure of.. on the gl site, i hope to get lucky...

All I can say is preview before you buy. Go through the lots till you find low miles, no leaks, starts, and hard brake pedal.

Did you get it? I saw that it closed at $2610 which is a little higher than I predicted. Let me know if you need some help or talk you through recovering it.

Read this site night and day to gain knowledge about the deuce. Also, download the Tech Manuals and read them. Knowledge is your friend.

Nope didn't get it still on the hunt. How often does gl refresh. Inventory

Some folk's think they're getting low. They just came and took pics and description's on the older trucks my local National Guard unit has so I'm starting to think it's true.

Zack, unless I missed it, you said in South Georgia but not exactly what military installation. If it were at Robins for instance, I could go over there and pump up the tires and recharge the batteries, but I'm in Middle Ga.

You might want to mention where so someone can go start it and run it for a while before the batteries go dead and the fuel gels up in this cold weather.
Otherwise, we might have another Gimp story to tell.
