So I have been promising photos for a while, so here they are. Sorry for the delay. Wish I had more, but with the nonstop rain I have had, tomorrow will be the first nice day I will have to get photos with. Definitely more to come, and a new thread soon for the restoration of it. Many questions...

I accdiently double posted. Read below.

Hey Rusty, Any opinion on whether or not an air/water separator is a good idea to add to the system? Just to keep the moisture out of the air tanks more. Blow downs would still be a every drive occurrence, but it would help keep the moisture out of the tanks even more.

Follow the Instructions of this thread and you will be fine. image dump in next post, and a few better pics when its not freaking raining in Florida. 3 days straight so far with more expected in the morning.

Pictures and videos coming soon. 800 miles in 2 days. Feeling the burn in my shoulders worse than anywhere else. Respect to the guys who drove these things, pulls like an ox, screams like a banshee, and has the suspension of a mule. One thing I noticed was smoke in the fuel tank whenever I...

Will be seeing it tomorrow at 9 am eastern time. Pictures to come. Gopro, camera, Polaroid, and a butt ton of paper with me. Insured with Hagertys for 323 per year.

We are driving up today. Good news, he is definitely running. The owner sent me pictures of it and video of it at 50. I will still be doing a full pmsc and extensive shake down drive. 700 mile trip, here we come.

God bless you, I will keep it in mind if anything goes wrong.

Thats the idea. Originally it was on the bottom of the bay, and we recovered it and rebuilt it. I kid you not, it was originally named "Unsinkable".

Yeah, she was built in the 40's, and she just keeps cranking away in the hull of that old boat. Rebuilt it 3 times now, but it's more dependable than any Cat or cummins. No offense to cats or cummins, but detroit built one **** of an engine. Trip path posted in pictures. Shortest possible...

We actually did have a "Jenny"! It was named as a joke when we couldn't figure out a name, and it stuck. I currently own 3 boats though, and none of them are Jenny's. We have the "Linda", "Mary", and "Vitamin Sea"

My Fiance is just crazy enough to want one as well, but once it makes it to Florida, it's going to have an easy life. Parked indoors, going to car shows, and the occasional romp in the local woods for firewood. I don't have a need for one, but I have always had a want for one. Every tuesday, I...

Growing up on a commercial shrimp boat, I tend to keep a very level head..... him on the other hand. He would be safer in a helmet and a suit made of bubble wrap. Unfortunately he is the only person crazy enough to drive with me up there, buy a vehicle I have never driven before, and then drive...

With how often it is going to be run, I will stick with DOT3 till it needs replacing, then go DOT5. That is, if it isn't already DOT5. I am a marine mechanic, so I know abit about cars and trucks and such, but brakes are foreign to me. I think highway patrol would get rather upset if I dropped...

Thank you very much. It's so nerve racking learning everything. A lot of new information to take in all at once.

Hey rustystud. I have read through this forum for the most part, and am wondering what you are currently running in your Deuce as through this thread you have changed products and weights. I am just purchasing my first MV and am wondering wondering what the master uses. Thanks in advance for the...

I nearly forgot my air setup. Glad you said something. That would have been a mess if I got there and couldn't fill the tires.

You don't have to tell me twice about zipties and Ducktape. As an avid offroader, my jeep is full of zipties, and my soft top is probably 60% ducktape at this time.

A full bleed out would mean disassembling the entire system and running rubbing alcohol over everything, right?

If it is on Glycol DOT3 what are the dangers and more importantly, how would I go about swapping it to Silicon?
