This is my next project once I get up to Colorado. The outside is okay for now and the cab looks decent but my engine compartment looks like ten pounds of crap in a five pound bag compared to the rest of the truck.
I plan to remove the hood, fenders and grill/radiator to gain full access to...
Sorry my friend. I got the final go ahead from the wife so unless hes asking more than I can get for this kidney it's a done deal. I have brought in wallew as a partner on this. Where going to make it a MVCC club project. More picks to come on Monday.,.
I had already decided before I started this post. This is the truck I always wanted. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to be taken for a ride on the price. I may have to sell a kidney to afford it but I'll make it work some how. I'm going visit with the owner on Saturday.
I've been doing a little looking around for parts for this US6. It seems as though there are a few sites out there but not many. Has anyone done a full body off on one of these that could let me know how hard it is to find parts.
Looks like you could almost fill up the bed with diesel and run down the road with your fuel cap open. LOL Don't worry holes are a part of life with these trucks. I have an a2c that had a few holes in the front bed wall that the former owner calked and painted over. It's amazing what you'll find...
Thanks fellas, by the way does any one have an idea as to what the truck would be worth in it's present condition. Let me rephrase that. What should I offer for the truck.
Hey fellas,
I have an M35a2c but one of my dream MV's has always been a Studebaker US6. I finally found one while visiting a SS member at his hanger last weekend. I almost jumped out of his deuce at when I saw her. From what I can tell she id super clean for an old "Lend Lease" truck. I took a...
Make sure you bring her a treat and give her some lovin. Not the kind that would wind you up in the mental institution if you know what I mean. LOL

I have seen door handles for our trucks that have key locks in them. You should only need one on the drivers side and just combat lock the passengers side.That and the chain steering wheel lock should be plenty.
Maybe your not as vindictive as I am but I would take every chance I could to...
Looks like you found the path of least resistance. Good for you. If she's going to be kept in that spot for extended periods of time I would suggest investing in a good thick tarp to cover the cab and windows from the elements and bird doodie. Also find a small bucket of some kind to put over...
Hawkeye,
My sources say it's the lift pump in the tank failing. Thus starving the injector pump. Then the high pressure side is sicking air from somewhere? Running the straight WMO may be part of the problem as well. Suggestions would be to replace in tank lift pump, replace all fuel filters...
fuzzy, We'd love to have ya for how ever long you can give us. If you go to the MVCC (listed in this thread) web site and fill out the info on the application page we will put you on the mailing list and get you into the system. I know the app page asks for $30 dues. Please disregard. We are...
Doc,
If you get a chance, check out our MVCC website. We have a new member "Hawkeye" who is also a member of the "CAF" (Commeritave air force) Ft Worth wing at Meacham field in Ft. Worth. They are having a fly in on 21st and where trying to set up a static display for them. We would love to...
Doc we would love to have you. Please check out our website listed on the prior pages of this thread. I know it's real short notice but our next meeting is tomorrow morning at Jim's house at 10:00. Please let Jim or I know if you can make it and need directions. PM sent.
As anal as your HOA seems to be I'm surprised they didn't also cite you for your grass being a 1/4 inch to tall or your yard borders not being edged properly. No BS it happened to my Mother when she moved to Dallas. I went and took a yard stick to the HOA presidents yard and motioned that we...
I don't know about your state but down here you are not allowed to have classic car plates on a commercial vehicle. Personally I would also spend a few bucks on an attorney and have him do some research and slap this Pompous A** and his beloved HOA with a lawsuit. If he doesn't back down you'll...
