    Memorial Day fun...with a M35

    I'll bring my own camera next time just for you! Haha...:) Next time we are going to go to the creek and fill up a 600gal water tank and dump it in the bed first.

    RIMS with Rivets

    Half of the wheels on mine are rivited and the other half are welded. I am very OCD so it bugs me.

    Driving ?

    Like you said, it depends on how much you drive it. I drive mine 2-3 times a week, I live in the hills/mountains, and I make "short" trips. This is probably my fault for not elaborating, but radials have spoiled me, so I was implying them. I want to single mine out and run 1100x20 Michelins...

    AM General registration/insurance

    I added mine to my Nationwide auto policy. $12 a month with antique tags (I'm also 22 y/o).

    Memorial Day fun...with a M35

    The water was up to the middle of my knee (and I'm 6'5"). The yard I was in was not level so the front of the truck was a little deeper than the rear. We pulled a pickup to the rear tailgate so all we would have to do is step off the deuce onto the toolbox in the pickup, then from that into...

    Driving ?

    Park it in your driveway. Unless you live in a HOA, as long as it's registered and insured, there is nothing anyone can do about it. That goes for my county anyways... And I will disagree with most peoples responses that a Deuce is not that expensive. It is. $100+ oil changes, 10 tires to...

    Air Buzzer

    Mine came with that and I love it. Works great!

    Memorial Day fun...with a M35

    I really wanted it there, but the few driveways we were in that day, the flag would have been ripped off the truck if it were on the passenger's side.

    Memorial Day fun...with a M35

    Well, I woke up today next to my beautiful girlfriend (which is always a great way to start the day) and we were hungry! We gathered up everyone in the house and decided to go to Denny's. We stepped outside to 80-degree weather, sunshine, and my Deuce parked in their backyard! Well, we rigged...

    Deuce age and production numbers

    I believe the Multifuel was regularly installed in the M35A2's around 1967 (or so I have gathered from here from my limited searches). I have a '68 with a LDT-465-1D in it FWIW...

    The bobbed A3 worked out nice in the memorial day parade

    I made my own parade today. I took the top off and cruised around town with the flag flying high in the rear. I have never heard or seen so many people honk, wave, salute, give me the thumbs up, or fist pumps out their windows, etc... We then turned it into a swimming pool later in the...

    Paint. What color and where to get it?

    Thanks for the help. I did a quick google search to see examples of different shades, and stumbled on this picture: Lusterless USMC Forrest Green (34052). I believe it is the one I want. I would like to see an entire truck painted this one color to get a better idea of what it would...

    Paint. What color and where to get it?

    Hey ya'll. I'm getting ready to slowly start re-painting my truck panel-by-panel. I don't want the 3 color camo pattern that is currently on it, as that is just too much work for me to bother with. I want it to be one solid color. OD Green (or Foliage green...whatever its called these days)...

    Is there any interest in a cummins Allison swap

    I want to do the Cummins swap in the near future...but it ain't gonna have no Allison behind it!

    Too fat to fit

    How ironic...I'm sitting here typing this with a big bowl of Vanilla ice cream covered in Caramel :D I'm 6'5", 230lbs. I fit in it just fine. Leg room is just a little cramped, but I'm use to it. I wish you guys who are trying to lose weight the best! I could lose 15-20lbs and be...

    Towing a deuce

    Does anyone know what speeds would be reached? I don't think anyone has asked that question. If it requires driving on a busy interstate/highway...then no. Anything else is fair game in my book. Don't go much over 30mph and you'll be just fine. I've towed many 6-7k loads on trailers...

    Peppy Deuce

    Even if I dropped my 325hp/610ft-lb Cummins in my Deuce, I doubt I could get it to run like that one! It must be nice to have some power...

    M35 Gear Shifting correct

    I split shift quite a bit around here. Lots of hills, and this county loves to put stop signs and lights in the middle of them :cookoo:

    Would there be any interest in an all Stainless steel brake line kit for a deuce?

    I am also interested. Brakes are the one thing I really do NOT trust on these trucks. I get a little paranoid every time I come up on a stop sign or a red light...
