Awesome work! THANK YOU for sharing your diligent efforts! Always an honor to watch a Craftsman at work! To bad I wasn't closer, I could help you out with that M/Bath. That, I am very familiar with. lol Thanks for the pics and comments!! YOU ROCK!
God bless,
Tony:-)
Volvo? I guess that would be a VERY expensive "bead breaker" if that is all that you used it for? Do you rent it out for tire break down parties?
God bless,

Well, it's final, she's in the classifieds here on SS. Thanks to all that shared their wisdom and assistance. Hope she goes to a great home and gets restored like she deserves.
God bless,

Thanks guys! This has been an adventure! I am interested in the manual and will pm. "Lost Puppy" hmmmm, well, it sure is cute ya know? roflmao! Had an offer to rebuild carb for free already. Gas tank next? lol She rolled well and is now stabled next to the "Raven Deuce" and the two M105a2...
She's home! Was an adventure! Had a super time! Thanks to Mike Killen and Kurt Eberle! Nice, safe, simple, straight forward, and accomplished recovery! Beaver tail was NICE! lol Ahhhh, now what? lol Thanks to SS members PB and Oldfart for sharing your experience and information! "Can do!" She...
Have trucking company lined up. Beaver tail with winch. Hope she rolls, will have the deuce to pull her. I don't know if I will have to disconnect the drive shafts. Tires are holding air, that's good. LOL Any suggestions for making the move easier on her AND me would be appreciated. Any...
Hey everyone,
I'll be going to get the truck this weekend. Only had ten days to collect after the auction. Will be bringing her home via lowboy, tractor, and the Raven Deuce. Brush is cleared, tires aired up and transportation lined up. Anyone interested, please don't hesitate to drop me a...
OK gentlemen, I am now the proud owner of a M211. Now what? If anyone is interested, please pm me. She is complete, straight, and very little rust. Will air her up tomorrow and get ready for the recovery attempt. Still have to get ahold of the trucking company. I guess I could part her...
Ok Gentlemen, I will make some phone calls to a freight company and to an acquaintence who is in on the "sale". I'll see what I can do. Still, I have limited "play" money. I agree, she's a part of history. She was even a "firefighter" during her past life. LOL I have more pics too. Let's...
I think I will place a small "standing bid" on her. I don't have alot of "extra" these days. Who does? If anyone wants to buy her, let me know. I have enough going with the "Raven Deuce" and the M1061a1 that I recently acquired. She really does look like a "easy" save though.
Congrats on the trk! Did you make the tow bar? Amazing how resilient these trucks are to abuse and neglect. Amazing design! Good luck, and pm me about the tow bar if you are so minded.
God bless!

Welcome aboard! This is a great site, great people, great information! I'd be lost owning a deuce without SS and the FANTASTIC people/help that is so freely shared here!
God bless!

Here's some more photos I took today. What do you guys think? Don't really "know" what to do for or with her. Anyone really interested? She looks straight, clean, very little rust, and complete! Hate to see her destroyed. She goes this coming Monday, the 15th.
Man, these are "comin out of the woods" aren't they? Well, we'll see if the one I posted about is in as good of shape or what when I go up there this weekend. Shame they are "worth" more as scrap than as a complete MV. I got a suggestion of parting it out, but where does one store a "parts...
Thank you Gentlemen! I really appreciate your assistance and knowledge! From what I am told, it "ran when parked". It is a winch model. Don't believe there is a title. Don't know what the state of Illinois would say about a vehicle that old. Would have to check. It's some distance away...
