Looks good and the price is right. I plan on building one also for an airsoft '60. Nice post. Thanks, Bob

Anyone tried to match a semi-gloss 23070 at Home Depot? I cannot find the Federal Standard # for 23070 but did find 33070 in flat which should be the same color, just in a flat finish. Maybe a HD satin in 33070 color would work? I want to avoid the khaki tint of 34087.

Quonsethut, outstanding job. Nice to see the little extras that go into making a 'Nam truck look the part. You might lightly airbrush the red dirt on with paint for a more durable look. My deuce is also getting the Gillespie 24087: got the front bumper and doors done before cold weather here in...

Very nice. Fun to see how the military has evolved since my time in the 70's.

I am a member of a small military musuem here in Minnesota. Looking to move a 2000# naval gun replica to Minnesota from Pheonix Arizona. We are in no hurry as the gun is safe where it is. I am wondering if anyone is planning a trip this way (or part way) and would have the space to help us...

Thanks for posting. I first flew the UH-1 in 1975 at Fort Rucker as a WOC (Warrant Officer Candidate). After flying the TH-55 in training the Huey was top of the line to fly. I flew in Alabama and Alaska and returned to civvy life in 1980. I still run outside to look whenever I hear the thump of...

Looks great. Our outside painting is over Up-North. Blizzard conditions for the next three days. I guess God is going to paint my Deuce white!:-P

Greetings Rex from the Albert Lea area. Got my deuce this fall and love it. Just was out in the snow and had a blast. Stock tires are not too bad through 3~4 drifts. Never knew they were there by the ride. Punched right through. Just if you do get stuck, its going to cost you unless you lnow...

Too funny Mike. Hope you get some replies as this is something interesting. Depending on which year rust bucket you can find it would vary the NEW parts you would have to buy. The older the better and the least parts you would have to retro fit. Your right though, from what I see you could build...

Reminds me of a Jonny Cash song.

Well the blizzard moved East and I was able to dig out by hand in only 5 hours. My; how I love living in Minnesota!! Then I took the deuce out to relax. Now thats much better. Learned not to leave the hand brake on in freezing weather. Drive it until you smell the brakes are hot and hope they...

I drive mine every chance I get. I have collerctor plates so its a grey area just to drive it without a "Reason/event." Well, you can drive it for regular maintenance as needed. Mine always needs to be run every week to keep it in tip top shape.............. I love to drive the deuce to relax...

Cool tips, many thanks. 'Can always learn something from sombody most days!

I would love to see more pics of your truck. I looks fantastic and is a fun version of the Deuce.

Wildchild, sorry to say there is NO CURE for greenitus. You either get it or you don't - you got it. Its gets worse, you can live with it but it never goes away. Get one while you can and it will ease the pain somewhat until the next attack. ADVICE: get the best you can afford, that way you get...

Taxi!

I thought about flipping the lunette, but the trailer had seen some rough outdoor weather and she was rusted in place. A little PB Blaster should free it up. Anyway the father son team is now on the road. I always had to pull mike in his little red waggon as a kid, now I can pull his little...

Keep em rollin. Great job. Always fun to see another one ready to go. Bob

What a great idea! Way to go. I like all the flags along the roadside. Bob
