    On the road to Iowa

    Ok guys! I'm really enjoying reading all this. Kenny, no need to be speechless! Heck I dragged the travel trailer from your place and the clearance was MUCH tighter on that than this set-up by far. Lance, Buddy had to give me a bit of a push up the hill at his place. I made it about 2/3rds...

    On the road to Iowa

    Mourning all!!!! Well, I left home in a hurry yesterday. Reminder to self: DON'T GET IN A HURRY!!!!! That bit me in the butt big time on time. I forgot my chains, straps and one box of tools (I have four boxes though). Driving the back roads at 45 mph really bites. Talk about making a five...

    Extra 75 gallon Fuel tank in bed

    I'll be doing something similar with my four door (see avatar) pick-up. I have a 12 volt pump and will refill as I'm driving. Plus I'm modifying the genset to also draw from the same tanks so when we're parked we have power, heat and A/C as the environment demands.

    New Pix!

    Markings? WOW! Rick you've done an impressive job with her! Are you going to letter her with any Illinois Guard or unit markings or just keep her as-is?

    M128A2C Recovered from Camp Pendelton

    Kevin, Call me anytime. School is out and I'm applying for a job with the Sheriff's office as a deputy (yep Kenny, it looks like a go!). I have two D ring binders of wholesalers and such. I decided to stay with equipment and such. I had too many people wanting special sizes and stiffing me...

    Fold Down Bumper Step

    I had one tailgate step on the front bumper. Before swapping the bed for the shop van I used another tailgate step for the other side of the bumper. I prefer them over the fold ups because if for some reason the front tire goes flat the tire will take off the fold-up step too.

    Diablo Build Update (pics)

    I am in awe and respect for the quality of your work! If 'Storm wasn't a work truck I think I'd be doing something similar.

    OOPs I think I just bought the wrong motors.

    LDS is THE engine to put in the Deuce! If I had one I'd be doing just that and retrofitting it like Ken said. It's a beautiful motor with Five-Ton power! :drool:

    M128A2C Recovered from Camp Pendelton

    Kevin, That's my dream trailer! She sure looks wonderful! I know about the surplus business. If you want some tips just call me. I'll be happy to share my experiences.

    M36A2 wheel base

    You will need to flat tow it. When you do use the side roads and US highways and STAY OFF the interstates. I'm doing that with my trips. The truck will be better off too. Plus it's much safer at slower speeds if something goes wrong.

    M35A2 for sale in England

    M35, That's why I converted my 35 to a 109. I LOVE the utility. Plus I'm getting a magnetic bumper sticker that says "Ultimate SUV" rofl :jumpin: :driver:

    Deuces on GL

    I see BW's truck went for $4K. Waaay too much money for me. The more this fiasco called GL goes on the happier I am in getting 'Storm for $1700!
