G'day everyone,....
Kinda know what you mean, I have some good memories that go with the tools I have I inherited from my father, I could never part with them.
On a side note, after my last trip with my Deuce, while it was sitting waiting at the storage place waiting for it to open I did a...
G'day everyone,.....
Don't be worried about getting an entire seal kit if all you need is a single O-ring out of it as its always a good thing to have spares/parts on hand for later use.
(hopefully never needed)
That's a great truck you have saved!
Congratulations and I hope you have as much...
G'day everyone,....
That's a great upgrade you have done there!
I want to keep mine original looking as I can.
I am having my seats recovered and having new thicker padding put in the seat bases.
A job that should be done by end of January.
I am looking at changing the diff, gearbox...
G'day everyone,.....
Well I'm back!
954klms in all, $266.02 for 218ltrs + $31.00 for 4ltrs of engine oil to mix in with the last tank of fuel.
My butt is tired!!
But it was Darned fun driving it all that way in that open country,....
Did I mention my butt is tired?

G'day everyone,....
Well today in about an hour and a half I will be collecting my Deuce to start an epic 800klm+ trip over the next 4 days to move my mother into her new place.
I have budgeted $600.00 towards fuel for around 3 full tanks.
I guess I will find out what I get mileage wise...
G'day everyone,....
My other package I picked up today, it arrived a few days ago,....
It contains my 2 sets of new windscreen seals and 2 sets of new wiper blades.
Thanks TMG's

G'day everyone,....
Just collected today a parcel with two new metal pneumatic wiper motors for my Deuce.
These are a little shorter and stubbier than the plastic ones currently fitted.
Each came with its own air valve so they can be run independently if I set it up that way.
Now waiting on...
G'day everyone,....
Just bought my Deuce a pair of NOS metal pneumatic wiper motors.
I got them because while my Deuce was being 'Cleaned' when it arrived somehow the manual arms on the wiper motors got broken off.

G'day everyone,...
It's gonna be a great choice, better to have it and not need it than be stranded out in the middle of nowhere with those wheel nuts you can't move with your standard tools.

G'day everyone,....
Sorry, I meat to convey that I don't ever think they made a camo cover in canvas, I do know they did it in vinyl, I was just talking about canvas.
Sorry, I should have made that point clearer.
My bad.
Oh and a side note, I took my drivers seat base to get recovered and...
G'day everyone,....
The Cargo cover is canvas and I only think they came in plain OD green, I haven't ever seen one in camo that I can remember.
I kind of think this Canvas one suits it.
I will get another canvas cover made so I have the original as a spare, I wonder if I can get that one...
G'day everyone,....
I love that movie,
I loved it because of all the B52 scenes in it and how technical they were with it, I just loved the detail they went into with procedures.
The special effects were a little 'B' grade for me, I would love for them to remake that movie with todays...
Blatant picture post!
G'day everyone,....
Just a blatant post with pictures of my Deuce with its Cargo cover on in the rain.
(Darn that thing is heavy when you fit it by yourself)
Next job will be to replace the rope with the black cord I got for it.
