    Abandoned deuces in Baltimore

    I got an email back from Mr. Blonder. He said that the city isn't going to do any paperwork for ownership. It looks like the only legal way to do this is to have them removed by a city licensed tower who will then take over the storage; an attempt at ownership will then have to be made, followed...

    Abandoned deuces in Baltimore

    I sent an email to see if I could get in there to look at them. I wish I had more room in my yard….

    Abandoned deuces in Baltimore

    I haven't seen the vehicles in person. I'm going to try to arrange to go over there. The city would have to do some type of paperwork for release of abandoned property. I know they've been there for many years; way past the law for abandoned property. I used to look at them when I passed there...

    Abandoned deuces in Baltimore

    I got an email this morning from the MVPA HQ. There is a Baltimore city worker who has been tasked with clearing a yard owned by Baltimore City, off Broening Highway. The lot has some abandoned junk in it. Among the junk are two deuces and an old jeep. He is trying to find someone, or several...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Changed out the front axle boots…again. Well, one of them. The inner ring for the right side broke, so I'm waiting for the new one so I can finish the job.

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    The actual law as passed can be found here: http://mgaleg.maryland.gov/2012rs/bills/hb/hb0668t.pdf If the link doesn't work for you, you should be able to copy and paste it into your browser's address bar. The law itself does not prohibit occasional transportation; it only states that you...

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    In reading back through the posts, I forgot about the end run, super secret passing of the HB last year. They made the separate historic category for over 10,000 lbs. They made it a 25 year requirement, and removed the occasional transportation wording. The restriction is more geared towards...

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    If you wanted to use the truck as a regular, every day truck, you would have to register it as a Class "E" vehicle. You would have to pay $5.00 for every 1,000 lbs. of weight up to the maximum weight limit. That would run you about $250 for a two year registration for a deuce at 25,000 pounds...

    Brake Light Switch burned to a crisp

    There was an upgrade done for the brake light switch on Deuces. It moves the switch from the MC to the air pack side to eliminate issues like the one here. It was one of the first things I did because of intermittent brake light problems. It's worked perfectly ever since. You can pick them up at...

    We're on our way, but it looks like we'll be late too. It's slow going with the M37.

    10/13/12 - Breakfast in Eldersburg, Maryland

    We may be there with both trucks, if we can get the gremlins sorted. If so, there will be 4 of us. Possibly three…or two even…. As you can tell, things aren't exactly solid just yet. :grd:

    M37 work starts

    We got the headlights sorted, both high and low beam. We got the tail lamp ans stop lamp working too, but it needs a more permanent set up. There aren't any turn signals installed, and the BO lights aren't hooked up. We just pulled the fuel tank and sent it out for refurb.

    Landed my first M37 in Aberdeen

    Sorry I've been away for awhile. As for the three prong cable, there are two different types. The original one is much longer than it needs to be. In later models they shortened it and it goes directly over to the generator. We had a long one at first, then got the shorter one with the kit from...
