got started on the solder job tonight. Couldn't figure out why the solder wasn't sticking...hmm did I forget a step.....oh yah flux. I forgot to buy flux. Project put off yet another day.:cry: Luckily I don't work tomorrow...whew!!

What brand of paint did you use?

You can hear the air release when the truck is not idling.

Have you tried putting some air tool oil in the back of the airpack? The air tool oil will help lube things up in there. It is actually something we're suppose to be doing to our airpacks for maintenance purposes.

I've got some silver solder. Will that work?

I do have a Keller Soldering Iron. Will this be big enough for the job? Type: Single Wattage: 140 W/100 W Temperature Range: 1020° F/900° F

Thanks DH I didn't event think about using my soldering iron. I know what I'm doing tonight;-)

Thanks for all your recommendations and advice guys. The holes are about 6-8 inches up from the bottom of the radiator in the vertical cooling passageway. Both are about 1 mm each. Luckily I only got the one passage way. I'm really kicking myself now because I thought about the plywood cover...

Well I decided to change out my hoses today on my '68. I got in a bit of a hurry and completely forgot to put my usual piece of thin plywood in front of the radiator. Well, while I leaned the radiator forward to loosen the fan bolts....it happened:shock: My winch clutch handle lock out bracket...

Hmm, now I know what my Dodge 2500 Cummins will look like when the clear coat starts to peel off;-)

You in the sandbox right now Dale?

Of course man, come on up. Those without MV are always welcomed as well. This is a Steelsoldier rally with MV's;-)

Just ordered this 3x5 flag for the deuce. Plan on mounting it squarely on the back of the truck just above the tailgate.

Just posted this video in the Chaplain's Corner. It is a testimony of the "original" pilot for American Airlines Flight 11 on September 11th....wow!! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/chaplains-corner/74648-setptember-11th-testimony.html#post929503

Looking good! Man I need to recover another truck or something!!!!

bump. I'm thinking of maybe using a shipping company. Any recommendations? Old Dominion, R&L Carriers. Looks like it's hit or miss with U-Ship so I think I may avoid them unless there's someone with good reputation

Hey no problem Zack, glad I could help. Scott kept me posted of your progress by sending minute by minute play action text messages. He sent a few pics and a video. Felt like I was on the sidelines watching you guys...haha

Hi Mikey, the paint codes I used are in the link below: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/73018-1968-jk-m35a2-restoration-project-7.html Also here she is out and about

As September 11, 2011 approaches, this marks the 10th Anniversary of another day that will live in Infamy. This definately was a day where each and every one of us knew where we were and what we were doing that day. There are many events planned throughtout the United States, as well as around...

I'm looking to possibly move a big round object that weighs close to 350 lbs (under 4 ft in diameter). It is located in/around Los Angeles and would need to be move to Olympia, WA. I thought about maybe driving down to get it but 2400 round trip miles doesn't justify it.
