    Hemtt rims VS. stock deuce rims for 395s

    I also had to bend a couple of my hemtt vavle stems to make them work. It certainly is a hard days work to mount up those tires to the rims though, I didn't use any lube put did a lot of banging on the side wall of the tire with a hammer and used up a lot of soapy water. I let them all sit...

    Help With Finding Cheap Insurance

    I have gulfway, it is specialty insurance for antique trucks...but they do not require it to be stored indoors and I got it cheaper because it is registered as a historical vehicle, but they will do it either way. Also, their underwriter is Travelers so you could just try your local traveler's...

    m1009 gov. auction

    I bought a deuce and some trailers sight unseen, but it is not recommended. If you want a nice one, you will want to preview it...as stated earlier...everything, and I mean everything is a gamble with GL. But that is part of the draw and mystic of the game.

    Goverment Liquidation No Longer collecting Sales Tax on Deuces?

    My first truck that I purchased out of state, they didn't charge me sales tax. I paid it later at the SOS office. Since then I've bought trailers out of state and I was charged sales tax, and then I bought a truck in state and they charged sales tax on that...so who knows.

    Selfridge deuces-what did you get?

    If it makes you feel any better, my dad is still waiting on his SF-97, so he still can't drive it.

    Selfridge deuces-what did you get?

    Yes, almost all of the FMS freeze trucks had winches. But, you better not take a chance and go get a truck from PA or KY or something like that [thumbzup]

    Honoring Veteran's MV show Nov 13

    Last night I was at the Fenton vs. Holly football game with my truck as a static display. They were doing a special fundraiser for the Wounded Warriors Project, I had the opportunity to speak with the company commander of this area's army recruiting. He was very helpful and he says they will...

    Inspection: Lansing, Mi.

    Just to be safe, bring an air tank or compressor to air up the tires, or to be safer bring a spare and all the tools necessary to change a tire. Don't forget a jack and boards. If you want to tow it without the top and bows you will need a hammer and crowbar to get them off. Then remember...

    How much $$

    someone recently asked me about my near mint m105 and I said, "$650". Now it isn't really for sale, but for $650 I'll just go get another for around $200 from a GL out of state. So, if you want to cheap the trailer put it at a price that you'd be "crazy not to sell", if I had that m101 and...

    Lansing MI M818

    now you got me wondering...Tuesday I was going to go listen to my mentor preach (he is 87 and does not preach much anymore); but now I want to hitch a ride with mikeroot and see what the fuss is about. I like drama, as long as it doesn't involve me! My dad works at a concrete plant and he calls...

    Cooper Discoverer ATR - Good or Bad

    I normally buy Coopers whenever I need tires, I have ran Cooper Discover ATR's on 2 pickup trucks...one around 50,000 miles on a 1999 Z71 and they looked like they could go another 50,000! I really like Cooper tires and I've not had any problems with them. Mine were weight class C and I...

    Lansing MI M818

    $470 isn't that bad (for usual Michigan prices), if you are willing to drive a couple more hours you can get them in other states for under $200 usually. I had one for sale recently for $525--without the wait! I even threw in a spare tire!

    Lansing MI M818

    I didn't see any of the m105 trailers out of Lansing in a couple of weeks, I must have missed it. Did you get a good deal? If you haven't bought anything from GL expect a loooonnnggg wait on that first EUC.

    Just so everyone knows, I'll be available to help too. But after looking at the trucks, I don't anticipate you guys needing to do much, slave start them and drive away! Of course, after a quick check of your fluids. Joe is a good guy too, easy to work with. Just come get the stuff when you...

    Well, Glenn needs his 2 moved--you have 3 drivers? If you have 3 guys already I will not bother driving down, I was just under the impression that I was to get Glenn's trucks to Ted's. Plus, mike root should be there picking one up, maybe we will just ride together. 4- m818's will be leaving...
