You should be able to go to the paint store and have them look up 'competitive paint', find the FSS (Federal Supply Service) listing then put in the '34052' FSS paint code and they can mix it. Because there are so many different mixing machines, and versions of the software the codes on one...

USMC gets a lot of stuff that never has a dataplate, or govt info provisions. Army has data plates made for the experimental vehicles (IE., XM-???) before deciding whether to purchase or not. Then, there are 'special units' that get whatever equipment they need at the time.

From the Phoenix area, going south and picking up I-10 will get you out of snow from there east through the southern Rockies. Then switch onto I-20 where it joins I-10 and head toward Dallas. I've been that route in January and only saw snow on the distant peaks.

Gee, and I thought the original meaning was 'TIRELESS WORKER'!

M D Juan made and still makes repro bodies in the Phillippines and sells them here in the US through a number of suppliers. As stated above, the current retail price is about $2600.

Check with patracy as to where they should be posted. Copyright used to run for 28 years after publication, but that was extended some decades back, and I don't remember when (and haven't looked it up). However, anything that was past it's expiration date was still expired. So 59 + 28 = 1987...

Not familiar with northern California, but have driven I-10 to I-8 into San Diego in January. No snow and the slopes were easy - there is a train line running parallel with I-10, just to the north about half a mile. Because of the wildfires in Cali. that route might have some other dangers...

When you hit 26,000 you get into CDL territory. It is in your best interest to keep the gross weight UNDER 26,000 pounds for licensing purposes! Unless you ALREADY have a CDL and plan on keeping it! Even then it can get expensive quickly.

Are you trying to come up with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating for registration purposes? If so, and your state has 'weighted plates' (the greater the GVWR, the higher the cost of the plate), you need to think carefully. First what is the empty weight of the vehicle, second what is the maximum...

But you were not in SC when you got pulled over, and the police in other states do not necessarily know the laws of other states, they have enough of a job keeping their own laws straight.

Daniel, could you come up to Columbia one Wednesday afternoon/evening (not with the deuce) and we can show you a few things about the deuces that will help you with your machine. There are seven deuces at our club compound right now, and Kip is working on his.

No clue. You will have to contact DMV.

IN SC you will be getting a 'property carrying' tag that depends on the maximum weight declared for the truck. A deuce with a declared maximum cargo of 3,000 pounds will cost about $109 a year for the tag, if you go for the max value on-road, you would be talking about a GVW of about 24,000...

I use BioBore in my diesel fuel.

Tan vinyl, six vent roof, and the two aluminum grills on the other two burner stations actually go in the top of the ovens when baking (where the square head pans are sitting) to sit proofing sheet pans of bread products before they are baked. While the correct transformer is not cheap, there...

We did some DUKW ones (they were brass) by spray painting the whole thing with black paint, then using 600 grit sand paper to lightly touch where the lettering was to remove the dried paint. You need to do a little part at a time or you will need to repaint some of the background. Once done a...

Have not tried with the current software, but in the previous version, you could 'print' a thread, about 400 posts at a time (no pictures) and then copy and paste into a document (.rtf) and save that. Tedious, and I only did it for one thread. The big problem is keeping all the threads 'up to...

There is always an exception to every military rule!

Check with the Texas Lighthouse Foundation in Galveston/Friendswood, TX as they had a number of MKT's and may have spare parts.

It's been at least 8 years since I read the thread, and I've read thousands of threads on SteelSoldiers since then. I can't point you to a specific thread, I just know it exists. I'm pretty sure the videos were on you-tube.
