July 3rd, I went to a cookout with the deuce. There was quite a few young people there and of course, they got around to asking for a ride. Not wanting to take chances on them being in the bed, I took two at a time in the cab. We drove 1/2 mile east, two miles south, a mile west, two miles north...

I saw this deuce yesterday and it has rows of these little spring clips around the hood, is that some sort of Artic setup? Guess it would make hanging Christmas lights a breeze! Glen

We picked up 40 Bolster Trailers today, only had to haul them about six miles. I planned to put my deuce to work, but we only had one with no flat tires. Some of these were really rough! Three large forklifts kept three tractor trailers busy for about five hours, loading, stacking, binding...

I ran across this old GMC today.... I would love to know the history. Is this a bobbed CCKW of sorts? I never saw one before. Looking for some insight! Thanks in advance! Glen

I had five 900X20 Titans in the bed of my M1008 and three in the bed of my deuce. I decided to catch my M1008 at the Mall, my son was working, so I backed the 105 up to the 1008 and started loading tires. I moved my fluid tub out of the 1008 over to the 105. I was buttoning things up to go drop...

I had about a dozen of these 105 covers go through my hands over the last six months. I always checked them for tears and most of them had a few. The one on my trailer appeared pretty good, until I noticed the seam in the side at a BBQ today. It works fine for what I plan to use it for, in fact...

We picked up a Hummer from Jefferson City, well, we are going to.... The paperwork is done and we are headed down Monday to get it. It is supposed to be complete, running good, missing a head light switch. I have sourced one of those to take along. Is there anything in particular to watch out...

I saw this one going to sell iron today, the safety issues should be obvious, even with my cell phone photos. At least it was a 3/4 ton... :roll: Glen

We bought a fleet of bolster trailers. It was muddy today in the yard, both mine and the salvage yard, although my neighbors probably think mine is salvage.... Anyway, I decided to go out and take a peek through the fence at our bolster trailers. It was quite a surprise, I had no idea they had...

I had been at a funeral and as I was leaving, I saw an old Jeep roll by a block or two away. I ran them down and they were out charging the battery, a little shake down run. He bought the Jeep years ago from a farmer and has been adding a little here and there when he finds it. Neat old truck...

A fellow member, Cookieman, bought a M109 at Riley. He had the misfortune of coming through on my day off, so I volunteered to go help him. He claims he is new to military vehicles, but he did a whole lot of fixing on his own! I left town early this morning, cruising east on I-70 with my ear...

Karl and I talked about trying to pick one up, maybe we quit too soon. I wanted the 1966 model, just because it is closer to my age I guess.... 1970 4226 dollars 2320 - Trucks & Truck Tractors, Wheeled at Government Liquidation 1970 3240 dollars 2320 - Trucks & Truck Tractors, Wheeled at...

I have been to Ft. Riley looking at trailers and have purchased about 15 M105s now. It seems like every round brings some different detail. We picked up three this week, while they are not as nice as some, they had some different details. On the landing gear, we had the big single wheel and...

I recruited my brother and we went out and shot a video of the deuce climbing a local hill. After reading threads on exhaust temperatures and fueling rates, I have been a little concerned about mine. It smokes on idle, it always trails smoke when accelerating. The rpm in this video is all under...

I finally got around to registering my deuce. It went smoothly with a printout of the auction page ands the signed paid invoice. I wanted to get AWOL as a personalized tag but somebody beat me to it. I ordered OLDCU instead. CU being the chemical term for copper. It was incredible easy. Glen

I had not attempted backing the M105 with the deuce, so I had to try it today. I hooked her up and took the dogs out for a run. The deuce sure pulls that trailer easy! It really is one of those you do not know its back there deals, but it does bounce on the hitch once in a while. Truck and...

Today I changed the oil in the truck, installed the cargo cover, tightened up a few bolts, squirted in some grease and then checked the brake fluid. There lies my question.... I had always taken the vent line off of the cap from the top. Today I started that way, when I dropped the 3/8ths...

I got up early Monday morning and set sail for Ellsworth to grab my deuce. I stopped to get a soda and hit the road. I stopped at the Nebraska Border and the South Dakota Border at Yankton. Karl Kostman came down from Fargo North Dakota and met me at Deuceman 51's compound. We drooled there for...

We bought our deuce from GL on Sept 18th, today was the 66th day at Battle Creek for the EUC. Bud Boy climbed up in bed where I had left my netbook earlier today. I am not sure how he managed to get our deuce's page pulled up, but he did. Event 5542 lot 7331 2320 - Trucks & Truck Tractors...

2320 - Trucks & Truck Tractors, Wheeled at Government Liquidation 9,000 dollars plus the 10 percent buyer's fee....9,900 dollars plus sales tax... 10,530 dollars....That was way out of my range. It is a very nice truck though. Glen
