    Her name is Madeuca

    Just an update. I found what I believe to be a good address for the soldier that left the note, unfortunately his phone # was unlisted. Looks like I might have to resort to snail mail to contact him. As for the truck, she's still sitting down in Palm Bay with lavarok's trucks keeping her...

    Her name is Madeuca

    I think I'll give it a shot.

    Her name is Madeuca

    In going through the paperwork left in the truck, I think I may have determined the name of the soldier that left the note. Would it be acceptable to try to contact him? Apparently, Madeuca spent her last several years in service with Company C 634th Brigade Support Battalion (formerly...

    Her name is Madeuca

    Thanks all for the comments. Right now she's sitting about 40 miles south at lavarok's place. Hopefully, we can get the Shuttle safely off the ground Monday, and I can get down there to get her the rest of the way home.

    Her name is Madeuca

    My new deuce was hauled into town last night by MD Carriers along with lavarok's. After offload we were going through the trucks looking through the various spoils, when Ian spots a note taped to the top of the glovebox. Here is what the note says: "Please treat my Madeuca with care and...

    Fuel Tank Cap needed

    I am in need of a fuel tank cap for my "new" deuce. Is a deuce fuel tank cap a standard part that could be picked up at NAPA or Tractor Supply? I would like to get one locally if at all possible.

    Redstone Inspection

    I won an M35A2 at Redstone during sale 4107. If anyone is heading out there in the near future, could you please take a look at truck #3687 and let me know what she's like? GL just requested revisions to my EUC last night, and I had it back to them within 45 minutes. Hopefully, it will be...

    Is there a way to tell if paint is CARC?

    Thanks for the replies. Looks like I'll take it over to my friends shop for the heavy paint removal. It might be a little out of the way, but his setup is probably better for the heavy work. Even with the plastic down, I was worried about the wind blowing the stuff off onto the ground I was...

    Is there a way to tell if paint is CARC?

    It's time to repaint my M35A2. It is currently MERDC. I've got some rust areas to repair and paint chipping, etc. So I'll be doing some sanding/sand blasting to clean it up. My question is how do I tell if the paint is CARC or not. It looks like some of the areas that have been touched up...

    What did everyone get from Redstone today?

    If I remember correctly, it was $1765.

    What did everyone get from Redstone today?

    Yes, please. I would greatly appreciate it. Although, what I saw from the photos looked pretty good, they couldn't show every detail.

    What did everyone get from Redstone today?

    I agree. I think they are a great deal for what you get. I paid 1765 for mine, $1800 was my max. It is a Winch truck, and looked pretty good. Although, in the pictures, it does look like it might not have much winch cable. I didn't get a chance to inspect it prior to purchase, but for the...

    What did everyone get from Redstone today?

    I picked up an M35A2, lot 3687. This will be my first deuce from GL, my first was a private sale, so I'm a little nervous given some of the horror stories I've heard. I figured it was worth a shot, and if the truck isn't that great, I'm not out too much.

    A little EUC help please

    Sounds good. Thanks for the quick reply.

    A little EUC help please

    More EUC Help, please What do I put in Section II: End Use/User Information? I just won a deuce from Redstone. I'm thinking I will keep the truck, but I may sell it as is, or possibly transfer some parts onto my other deuce and part out the rest, or I may bob it... Chances are, I will...

    I goofed up today - starting problem

    Thanks for the replies. I checked the wiring and all looks good. I'm leaning towards it being the batteries. I just put my volt meter on them and one was reading 10.6 volts and the other 12.5 volts. I get 23.1 volts across both as expected. When I turn the power on it drops to about 20 and...

    I goofed up today - starting problem

    I picked up 4 tons of limestone today to finish off my side driveway, when I parked the deuce on the front driveway the parking brake didn't want to hold all of the extra weight on the incline, so I left the truck in gear to give it a little more hold while I got the tires chocked. Anyhow, I...
