    2-pin accessory connector on deuce - interchangeable connectors?

    I don't NEED to upgrade to a NATO connector, I just want a mating pair of something, so I can actually use the port. I figure I already have 1/2 of the connector pair. I'd rather find a connector half that mates with it, hence the question, rather than having to replace the connector on...

    2-pin accessory connector on deuce - interchangeable connectors?

    2-pin accessory/slave connector on deuce - interchangeable connectors? I have a '71 deuce, with the 2-pin jump/accessory/slave power connector on the side, instead of the newer coaxial NATO connector. I'm looking to find a mating connector for it. From looking at the mil-spec...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    Update and a question: As of this past Saturday It's registered as a classic! My question is though, they didn't put down the light weight, GVWR, or 3 axles on the registration document. I definitely put that down on the application. Is this a problem? For others who have them...

    Roadside assistance that covers a deuce?

    Tow me home? That is what they do, isn't it? That's what i'm looking for. When i say "roadside assistance" i don't mean help on the side of the road, i mean "Tow my broken Sh_t home!" i'm not worried one bit about my ability to fix anything that goes wrong. What i AM worried about is...

    Roadside assistance that covers a deuce?

    Thanks for the help everyone! i'm going from Schenectady, NY to Haddam, CT. Taking a route to avoid highways (likely route link below) Not sure when, maybe sat or sun March 24th-25th. I'll be bringing at least one mechanically-inclined friend to follow, (i'm pretty good myself) and a...

    Roadside assistance that covers a deuce?

    Hi all, Does anybody know if AAA, or some other roadside assistance company would cover a deuce? I'm buying one, about 3.5 hrs away, and considering driving it back. Seller drove it 4 hours when he bought it 6 years ago. Hasn't gone more than a few miles at a time since then. Flat...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    Just a bill of sale, and expired registrations. NY state doesn't issue titles prior to 1973. I'm pretty sure i'll have to get a letter from the NY DMV stating he was the last registered owner. If vehicle is not title in that state, valid registration from previous owner is needed. If...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    sorry, I forgot to clarify. You are correct. None of those apply to me. I'm using the above text to justify that those DON'T apply to me. I'm using it for personal use

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    I've been going cross-eyed over the last few days, reading the CT motor vehicle statutes. So far, I haven't found anything to indicate any restrictions on Classic/Historical/Antique plates. I did find that in the 14-1(17) definition section, they clearly indicate commercial registrations are...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    I've already talked to my insurance guy. He can write a commercial policy for non-commercial use for a fairly reasonable price. That's my plan there. I've had historical plates before on cars, with normal insurance. Most collector insurance (that i've seen) limits your use so severely...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    ok, so I waited on hold for 45 minutes to the DMV. Talked to some guy, who had to go ask several people, and his answer was: "If you register as a classic, you can only use it for classic vehicle purposes, like parades and such. As soon as you put anything in the bed, you need a...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    Not totally sure what you mean by green & clean, but I assume you mean green paint, and keeping it clean. I'm not going to intentionally abuse it, but I am planning to put it to work as a dump truck that won't get stuck in my epic mud. That's why I'm buying it. The "cool old military...

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    I should have mentioned, no, I'm still building a farm. I don't meet the requirements for farm tags yet

    registering an M35A2 for use in CT

    Hi everybody, new member here. I figure i'll post this question here before attempting to contact the DMV. I'm buying a 1971 M35A2 dump truck, for personal use as a dump truck. Mostly around the farm, but I want to be able to haul gravel, mulch, manure, etc... on the street for my own...
