Welcome aboard SLR I am just across the border in ND in the Fargo area. Your choice sounds pretty good but then the M35A2 is a pretty darned good option also, keep in contact with Deuceman51 he is a great guy and certainly know a whole heap about these trucks! Keep us posted on your progress...

Deuceman51 has a M-75 get hold of him maybe you could talk REAL nice and he might consider selling it, I have been in it and its complete and pretty nice! KK

My first Deuce had all white oak for the troop seats and I replaced all the wood with red oak, it was almost half the price of the original white oak, and its all going to be painted anyway! KK

Losing Kevin I think had an effect on our entire community, BUT I will say when I came upon the M-123 AND the M-125 with Kevin's name on the windshield I was without words, I could not think of a better honor for one of our own! This was my first year attending the show and I was not...

When I saw your post concerning attaching the S-280 (or like) shelter directly to the frame rails my first thought was this is NOT going to work very well. Remember the amount of frame flex that goes on in these trucks, well that flex would more or less destroy just abotu anything that was...

S-280 can be a little challenging to get now days I bought one for the same purpose you have in mind and had to go to LA to get it, price was good and the unit is in great shape but shipping was expensive. It seems that most of the Comm units in the US are in that area so that is where I would...

Interesting I used to own a Mooney plane that had a ram air lever that opened up an intake in the front of the nose, that air would then bypass the filter assembly it was good for another 3 inches of manifold pressure at 10K feet, the plane was also traveling at 170 MPH at 48 MPH??? It does...

Diverman my 925 shifts somewhat like yours, what I ended up figuring out was to start out in 1-4 then manually shift to 1-5 I usually do this around 1600 rpm, min was shifting into 5th around 1400 rpm which seemed way to low! I got a bid from the Allison dealer and he gave me a quote of 400.00...

Awesome score on the 37, it looks very complete and they are truly a great truck, simple to work on, very reliable and fun to drive. My first MV was a 52 M-37, I bought it for 600.00 and ended up selling it for 1400.00 5 yrs later, gosh THOSE were the days! Good luck and keep the pics coming!! KK

CAV good choice on the belts, remember its NOT YOU that is going to be the problem and with the amount (it seems) of impaired drivers on the road today non of us can be to careful THEN when you have children in the truck with you? Good Choice on getting the belts! KK

Bob summed it up pretty good, but I would want to hear the engine run or in the very least make sure that is loose and no big holes in the block. Also when you do get it running check the radiator our closely as the temp comes up, radiators are rather expensive. Rust is another issue, how bad...

Congratulations on your purchase, that is one beautiful track, I was sure hoping that in went to a GOOD new home! I have been watching Dirt71s work when he was into the 10 tons and it sure looks to be some of the nicest I have ever seen! Once again Congratulations on your purchase, and treat...

Congrats 0352 nice looking truck and I will aslo add that your going to love it, they drive great, run really sweet and can pull a barn, BUT they do burn a fair amount of fuel, I generally average right at the 5 mpg mark with my 925! Enjoy it I have certainly been enjoying mine! KK

The truck looks Great Allen and glad you had a pretty uneventful trip, in this case anyway, if the truck looks and runs as nice as it looks I would say that you got a winner, Great Trucks and a pure joy to drive, Keep in touch with us and one of these days maybe you, bighurt and I could meet and...

Last week I saw a CCKW in Fargo with a big banner on the cargo cover stating he was in this convoy headed to Alaska, my first thought was WOW this is going to be a true IRON BUTT event in that Rig! After reading a lot more on the event the extremely slow pace I hate to say might just about kill...

I am heading out on the 9th and have reservations in Stevens Point and will be at the show till Sat night or Sunday, this will be my first time in attendance so needless to say I am very excited to actually partake in this event as opposed to just hearing about it! KK

Congrats Jeff NICE looking truck and I am going to tell you right now your going to love the 900 series, decent road speed, power steering, quiet interior at all speeds, these trucks are the tool for just about anything. Great purchase on your part! KK

I bought 2 grill covers for my Deuce NIB and this stuff is made really well to say the least, I paid 25.00 each for the grill parts! KK

my 925 is registered as a farm truck, and cannot be used for anything other than farm use, NO commercial use at all. The truck is registered at 51K max gross and I paid 214.00 for registration and licensing, insurance is about 100.00 more per year than the Deuce. The 900 series is one very...

Justin that is a very nice bob (an I am NOT into bobbing) and the A/C is pretty interesting, I was driving my 925 back from a show last Sun. and it was 100 degrees OAT and even with every window and vent open I bet it 115 degrees in the cab, very interesting truck and it looks like you have the...
