Everybody has HOPE! I looked at a 939 series wrecker in Montana a guy had for sale so I went in to ask about it thinking it would be in the 10K price range and the fellow wanted 68K because the govt had only 1200 of them built and there were only a handful left, collectors items for sure!!!

I cant see where painting it would cause you any problems, obviously we are talking a normal to lighter level of paint coating it, I dont see where it would appreciably effect the performance of the radiator.

Jeff nice save and congrats an a really neat truck! You know every once in a while (not very often at all) you see and old truck pre-restoration and you look and you can instantly visualize the truck looking better than it did brand new, Thats what I see with this truck, take you time and do it...
Thanks much Sand cobra I am pretty sure that if I were driving the same rig that you are I would be mighty proud of it also, and like you, even if I did not own it! I think I will do like Gunzy said my main issues are with all the insulation in the truck is rotted and falling down, I have new...
Hey guys I am looking for anybody who has redone the interior of a HEMTT and is willing to give me any words of wisdom before I start on mine. The truck is currently desert Tan and the entire truck will end up being 3 color NATO Woodland but not till a couple other trucks get some attention...

Juan I do hope you know that HIJACKING another thread is frowned upon on this site? Everybody including myself saw this when you properly posted it and dumping on other threads is not the proper way to get it out there! Its disrespectful to the person who started the thread your dumping on!

Like Will said the cold air intake is already on the truck, maybe you need to explain just what you think you need and what you expect to gain from it?

Welded Diffs, The only application I ever really heard of this was in dirt circle track race cars, I am going to say there is probably a pretty good reason for THAT!!!!

Hey folks I have an 88 HEMTT M977 and a few years ago bought a set of brand new in the wrap set of much newer HEMTT seats, they cam with all the rather large heavy mounting hardware, new slides all the needed airlines and tap assemblies and its all very nice. Now I am looking for the Tm or the...
Thanks Jake the truck ran great and there were some surprises (GOOD) I brought ear plugs thinking that 2 stroke screamer was going to be a problem, BIG surprise on the highway I couldn't even hear the engine I could hear the turbocharger whine and the tires, I believe this is one of the quietest...
I had a company who paints trucks in town spray my Deuce, I did 95% of the prep work, essentially everything but the final taping. They did a beautiful job and I saved at least 1500.00 doing the majority of the work myself!
