Well, I have finally decided to take the plunge and fulfill my boyhood dream of owning a Duece. I have been shopping around, hoping to find that 1500 dollar bargain that I just couldn't say no to. Instead I found one nearly 3 times that much, but I think it may be worth it. Maybe you guys can give me your take on it. I am probably going to pick it up in a couple days, and hopefully will have pics by the end of the week. What I found was one with a hard top, cab heater, winch, what appears to be a whistler turbo(will know for sure when I go back to hear it start and run), fair body, good side racks, bows, soft cover, and best of all.... the LDS-465-1A engine. I was ready to pass on this one until I found out about the engine. The truck looks to need a little tlc, as it has some broken glass and needs a couple tires. The seller has agreed to throw in extra tires and the glass it needs off another truck. Now I am keeping my fingers crossed that it is in good running order. He claims it is, and said he will put batteries in it and start it tomorrow, then give me a call to come check it out. To top the deal off, I have a car I was looking to get rid of and was going to take a couple hindred for, but instead I am trading it for a trailer to go with the deuce. So what do you more experienced Duece lovers think? Am I doing ok at 4k with the title? ![Confused :? :?](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)
