    Snow too early

    Good luck. When I retire, I plan on loading the snow blower into the trailer and head south until someone asks "whats that" pointing at the snow blower. Then I will have arrived!

    how to stencil markings

    I've laid out my letters or letters on blue masking tape and cut them out with an exacto knife. For large letters (3") I just lay a couple of widths of tape together with an overlap. If you do it horizontal you can do the whole line with care. I have a large sheet of white cutting board material...

    1971 AM General - Restored

    Nice to see someone taking the time to do things right while keeping drivability as a goal. An inspiration as I start on my deuce. Hope it turns out as well. I have a lot of rust to remove under the bed area............................... Cannot wait for nice weather again next year. I did not...

    Where does your deuce live?

    In my drivway. I live in a small town and it only drives one guy crazy (too bad for him). Not sure when the snow gets here and it gets cold. Might store it at a friends farm but then I will not be able to play with it if the fancy strikes me. Bob

    New rust protection for deuce this year

    I think I would brush on a coating on new motor oil. Stuff is cheap enough if you use a store brand and no acids/crud as in used oil.

    Members please post some fall pics

    Hey armytruck63, interesting toys she is playing with. Reminds me of metal detecting on the beaches of Europe back in the 70's.

    What do you to cap your Deuce exhaust stack with?

    I use a thin plastic pickle jar. It just big enough to slip over the pipe and roomy enough that the bend at the top keeps the jar in line. Its transparent to its not unsightly when installed. Get a fridge magnet (the type thats free) and cover it with a "pre flight" type check list. Stick it on...

    Progressive Insurance

    I insured my M35A2 through American Family. They had no listing under American General for the M35 so they defered it to the home office. Came back as an American General (mine is) Hummer no less. Was told that was close enough and that would be $107 for a year. I have had a Ferret scout car and...

    1.5Kw MEP-025A DC genset. Uses??

    68T, I too am thinking like you. Any good deal is a deal and good for trading if its not your thing. I just picked up a 2.75 rocket motor section on evilbay, now to find a dummy warhead to screw into it. I wish I could afford my own Huey! I have one tail rotor so its a start.

    28V 1.5kW genset MEP-015? specs/TM?

    As far as jumper cables, try and find some old stick welder cables. They make perfect HD jumper cables. Bob

    1.5Kw MEP-025A DC genset. Uses??

    Carl, thanks for the correction, yes 28v. Rectified! No pun intended. I have some 12v lamps so could wire them in series for the 24v. My 120v unit works fine for power tools in the field. Grounding is serious with any genset. Hammering down an 8' rod is one thing, getting it out again is...

    1.5Kw MEP-025A DC genset. Uses??

    MEP-025A. OK, just picked this baby up for $75 on CList. Now what can I do with it? What have you used them for? Might make a great slave starter for my duece?? Battery charger? Its 1968 vintage so will work for my Vietnam display. Thaks, Bob
