    Taking home a KraZ 214b - need some help finding front axle shafts

    Nice truck, hopefully someone from Europe will see this and help you out, or possibly an Arabic country. I have no other ideas except Russia her self where to find parts.

    PTO work then crash

    Man that sucks! Sorry to hear about that, I think you're an overly qualified welder yourself if I remember right, but we got some one in the local club who could probably weld that up for you if you need it done, email me if you need his contact info.

    Most valuable CUCV paint scheme?

    I agree with Porkysplace, it's in the eye of the beholder.........for me personally I'd want a nicely detailed truck painted solid 383 or desert sand CARC (or Lowes/Home Depot look a like) with NO markings. That way I can leave as is, or camo it myself, and add the markings I want. But if you...

    What Would You Pay?

    Your truck, well at least the bed, appears to be a Marine Corps vehicle. It is hard to tell from the picture, but it appears as though the bent round stock welded to the lower edge of the bed, right above and between the duals has the welded on angled reinforcements, that's a Marine thing - but...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Installed the Jatonka spin-on oil filter to my Deuce, now get oil pressure in 2-3 seconds.......MUCH better, than 13-15 seconds!

    Newb in AZ

    From the pictures it looks almost like Marine Corps Green........this Marine likes it. SEA BEES used the same color. Of course this was back in the early/mid 70s, but it looks pretty good on your truck too. All the Marine markings would be in yellow, and the Sea Bees trucks I've seen had black...

    1941 K18-C GMC Recovered today

    Glad you could save the old gal, the WWII MV Vets deserve some respect, love and restoration too. I notice a hole on each side of the grill just below the hood line. I think that's where braces would go to support the big grill guard these things had, I might be mixing it up with more numerous...

    M35A2 in southern Aridzona.

    Welcome to AZ. Jacks Surplus is in Tucson, has all the trucks you need, or get on Craigslist Phoenix, and type in Military, all kinds of trucks for sale in this state. Trucks are more money out West as there are very fewer places surplusing them compared to the literally dozens of places back...

    M35 or M211 for a first deuce?

    Theres not a whole lot of "maintenance" to a turbo, as long as it ain't cracked, or leaking oil you're not going to notice it at all except your truck WON'T blow black smoke like an old steam locomotive, that's the whole purpose of the turbo - cleaner emmisions - If the truck with the winch is...

    Might take the Ambulance for a run xmas day

    I always thought that was a cool looking truck one of the very few vehicles the French designed that.......well,...that...didn't look French, it was actually cool looking. I think I saw pictures of the cargo version used as gun trucks, I'm guessing by the French Foreign Legion.
