...and then there's tire age. Makes a huge difference. Most people don't know how to read date codes. You roll a deuce or a five, you're a wet spot where the cab used to be.

I have a bunch of videos, etc. I will upload when I have wifi.

Just skim through for titles and sections you're interested in.

Im gonna be trying to get as many pictures as I can.

Here's a tip for not missing such things: upper LH corner of the page, hit the "New Posts" link every day. ;-)

You're right, but I'm attached to the history of my USMC A1. BTW, the Para is all 12v, no traces of mil wiring.

It was working every day, driving all over the valley until they quit cleaning tile lines 3 years ago, so it's probably a decent water truck.

Sorry, forgot to mention first pic is off the interwebs because I didn't get a pic of the whole truck, that is a five, this is a deuce, but the round fuel tank, fiberglass is all the same. I guess Paramount used to be popular but there is very little info that I could find online. If i can get...

How cold will it be at night? It doesn't get cold here...

I'm gonna try to be at TMG HQ in RC Fri AM.

I wonder what the weight limit of the deuce axle is. These seem to take it OK, beside popping shafts.

Civvy square air cleaner box outside hood. Fiberglass flip front (nice for working on it) 'glass complete roof and windshield frame. Sorry pics are horrible...bad light and in a hurry. The non OD trans...are the lower gear ratios different too and better for "rock crawling"? Maybe use that...

They're horrid. 2"x3" angle welded together. 20,000 pounds of water...this truck is my deuce's cousin, cept mine was mil and not so fooled with. Same frame reinforcements, 3" angle. Same thick spring packs, except the pack is tapered on one side on this one and not the other, the leaves are all...

Might pick this up if I can get it cheap for deuce parts, or it's a pretty decent water truck. 66 Kaiser, don't think it ever made it to the military. LD 465 (with 427 oil filler), don't think the trans is OD of the dash shift pattern tag is correct, is not the OD trans shifter. Civvy...

Paramount P200 Ex-deuce water truck This pic is a P4000 5 ton from the 'net.

A good welding shop can fill the tank with co2 and weld it.

Sounds like a deuce race is in order!

I know where this truck is and will be revisiting it with a fine toothed comb. Owner wants to restore it, maybe I'll get involved. Regarding 427 power, everyone says they are more powerful, but the numbers say otherwise. I wonder if it's how they are tuned, more power coming in sooner giving...
