    Took the Mite out for a spin today

    That shot belongs in a calender! Just plain beautiful! I never thought much about the Mighty Mite until this summer. I crawled under one and those little buggers are a engineering masterpiece. What a cool frame and four wheel drive system. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas to all!!

    M275 A2 tractor value

    DDoyle can give us the facts on this more than me, but I have a M35 gasser here. All of the early trucks were gassers and then switched over to the multi fuel with overdrive trans. I am not sure of the years they did this or how the exact history goes. The gasser deuce engine is not even close...

    Big trailer, small rig.

You will need a 1 1/2 inch wrench, pliers, small sledge hammer, liquid wrench, and maybe some heat like a little torch. Also make sure the parking brakes are not frozen up and...

    Big trailer, small rig.

    You can also get the bolt on type and undo the military lights and bolt them on. Then just zip tie the wiring up to the front use a self tapper for a ground plug them in and go.. I just want to ad one thing. With your hitch being so low you will need two people to let it down on the hitch or a...

    M275 A2 tractor value

    So is that still a gasser? No top stack? I agree with Maddawg 2k.. If you could get it for $1500 it would be a steel.. She is in need of some good care.

    DT 466 International motor ?

    Ok you diesel pro's ! Whats the skinny on this engine? Think I could make one fit in a deuce? So far I have been told its a bullet proof engine, easy to find parts, hi RPM to match a deuce, and 150 HP stock. This would be a older version with a rotary injection pump. So do you think the oil pan...
