Heh, I got another one too A little bit ago, my Dad and I took the Deuce' down to the local fire hall to pickup a chicken BBQ dinner. When we park it, and get out, I notice one of the canvas bows has collapsed and the tarp we have over the rear is sagging in the middle So, with Dad's help, I...

So the rumors I've been hearing are true then? The 427 is basicaly a boat anchor?

Gotta also appreciate the fact that the truck has some nice big gaps between most of the body panels, it's a jury-riggers dream come true

Thought I'd bump this one up because it's worth it My Dad works for a defense contractor, and the place he's at has a little mini-garage that has a few MV's in it so they can experiment with things like equipment placement and maintenence proceedures. Nothing spectacular, there's a Humvee, and...

We lost the oil pressure guage in our Deuce' after a week of hard rain corroded a contact, untill we figured that out, we had to jury rig a backup <img src="http://redneck.theexitwound.com/pictures/gauge.jpg" border="0"> "wiggle the plug" so to speak and it may come back to life

Well, I was driving her down a rural backroad, the kind that only has 1 and 1/2 lanes, no divider line. At the crest of a hill, I found myself face-to-face with a chevy pickup, and in that split second, decided that putting her into the embankment was prefferable to a combined-speed 80mph...

Pretty ho-hum....... 88' Ford Econoline E-150 conversion van, 302, 3 spd auto, slowest brick of a vehicle I've ever owned, but cant argue with the pricetag Free From a neighbor who was going to send it to the junkyard, it had no brakes. Problem? $7 elbow fitting, only has 78K on the clock...

I'll see what I can do, but much more bandwith, and my webhoster will murder me....... :D

Got two short video clips of the deuce in action today, we drove it down the road to the fire hall to get some BBQ chicken, it was a real crowd pleaser First clip is the truck driving up to it's normal parking spot with me standing next to it. http://redneck.theexitwound.com/deucevid1.MPG...

Yeah, they need meticulously cleaned to function We usualy just take the power-sprayer and blast the bed to clean it

I'll see what I can get, I have a little digital camera w/ microphone that can take like 30 second video clips, took one of our hot rod on it's first test run with it. http://redneck.theexitwound.com/928.MPG

Air-over-hydraulic brakes, it has both

You're not hydro-locked are you? Just a thought.......

Things I've noticed driving the deuce....... The driver sits closer to the centerline of the vehicle than in a normal car or truck, so, drive using your mirrors untill you get the hang of it, you'll have a natural tendancy to drive too far to the left of your lane. If oncoming traffic starts...

Saturn is definately the place to go, we just got a whole box full of bulbs to replace the burnt out ones in our Deuce cab. Also, just about anything you could ever need to replace on them, gaskets, filters, etc. can be obtained from good ol' Saturn

One of the deuces' we looked at while shopping for ours had it's stack cut down a few inches, they cut it off at a 90 degree angle and installed a flapper to keep rainwater out

We had been "thinking" about getting one for years, even since I was a little kid of 10, just in a sort of "Wouldn't it be cool to have one?" kind of way, but it never got more serious than that. Then, in 03' we saw one for sale locally, an ex-National Guard M35A2 that someone had gotten...

You need troop seats!!! But that's just my opinion :D

We've got a cloth top, no complaints about it yet, then again, winter hasn't set in yet, so that may change depending on what our tollerence for cold is

Our registration says MAKE: "Kaiser-Jeep" But the BEST part of it is where it says EXPIRATION: Indefinite :D Yup, in PA, historic car plates and titles are good for life!
