I don't have much experience with White engines, but since I just picked up a White 465-1C last month I am hoping it is as durable as the 465-1D Hercules that was in my last truck. So far the White cold starts better than my Hercules. Time will tell, but so far I like it.

I think I may have found a source for locking door handles similar to the ones at the link Flea posted above, but I won't know until they arrive later this week. I have installed (2) sets of the chrome locking handles and it is a pretty easy task. FWIW - The mounting hole spacing on the chrome...

Good looking truck. I have not seen a deuce come from uncle Sam with LED lights before, but I did add LED bulbs to my last M35A.

PM sent.

I may be interested too, depending on price. With three deuces in the family, you never know when a towbar might come in handy.

Wow those are some fine looking tires!!!!!!

I will be insuring my new M35A2C with Gulfway within the next few days, so I will let you know how it goes. Hopefully it will be as easy as it was when I insured my 65 M35A2 with them.

Congrats on the scoring a couple of nice trucks and welcome!!

My experience with (3) deuces with good radiator caps is... If you can see the coolant in the filler neck, the level is too high and it will come out the overflow tube until it reaches the correct level. 2cents

:ditto: I don't mind paying a premium for products made in the USA by companies headquarted in the USA.

I would definitely change all the fuel filters first and install pyrometer and a boost gauge before turning up the fuel.

Thank you for your service and for the excellent post!

datsunaholic - If you have information about trucks coming up for auction that may benefit someone, you could always send them a PM.:-D I used to own a 240Z back in the 70's, it was a nice car.

Here is a pic of all three deuces together. My 86 on the left, my youngest son's 65 in the middle and my oldest son's 87 on the right. I am in the process of replacing my j-pipe if you are wondering why the stack is missing on my truck.

See the link below for my son's write up and pics of the 3rd deuce. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=30977 I hope to take a pic of all three trucks side by side tomorrow, which I will post tomorrow evening.

Looking good rivired!!! Do you have your own sandblasting rig?

Hey rivired - Congrats and glad to hear you made it home OK. I hope you are going to post a thread on your pickup too.:-D Make sure you post some pics of your new rig, so I don't have to post a nopics

Mike - Sounds like a nice rig!!!! I bought my plastic battery box locally, but it was the only one he had. There were a couple of other SS members that said they had the plastic battery boxes, but I dont recall their names. Send me a PM if you want me to see if I can find their names.

It is the truck on the left in my avatar. I will be posting more pics of the truck as I install my new j-pipe, Bendix alcohol evaporator kit, plastic battery box, optima red top batteries and battery trays in the near future.

Mike - Sorry I can' t help you with the winch parts, but I have to ask.... When did you pickup the 86 AMG M35A2C??? I must have been short on attention when you got it, becuase I did not notice it in your sig until this evening. Anyway, belated congratulations sir!!!! P.S. Thanks for the...
