    My Evil plan is working...

    Finally conned the old lady into taking a ride in the deuce. Just did a quarter mile loop out back by the woods. She had not been very receptive about the new aquisition, but since I've been working hard on finishing the patio this week she humored me. Hit a few bumps and the back end got to...

    T-case low range question

    Okay, so's ya'll know, I did search for this first there just isn't much on it. I drove the deuce just a little, put it in low so I could shift some gears. It doesn't seem to want to go into low very easy. I can feel the detents, but they seem weak on going into low. The handel moves up and...

    Home sweet home!!

    Well I got it home safe and sound, mainly due to the fine assistance of one Mr. Gimpy. (Well OK, he did about 99.9% of it) I think I saw somewhere on here that someone made the comment that he is well respected on this site, I second that. I got to spread some gravel and wait for it to dry...

    What's up with the Avatar?

    Seems like several people have the same of of a guy in a dirty brown tee with glasses and a mustache. Jasonjc, Westec, and a few others have it. Who's the guy? Just kinda wondering, is it a tribute or something? On one thread, every Avatar was the same and I thought at first someone was...

    Driving it home

    So hopefully this ain't a duplicate thread, don't want to get water boarded. :roll: But anyways, got a couple of people that suggested that I just drive my duece home, even though it doesn't have a title or plates. Some have said that they've done it. I just can't see that being a worthwhile...

    How many problems am I gonna have?

    OK, so got a line on a running duece at a VERY good price, of course no title. It's owned by a guy who is at least the second owner but I don't know if there's an SF-97 (?) for it yet. I'm gonna go take a look at it next week. The story is it runs good, body is decent, has a leaking master...

    Couple of Fire Dept HMMWV pics

    Here's a couple of pics of a HMMWV that the VFD I'm on used to have. There were two of them, identical on the outside except the number and the one that was used as a grass truck had a vinyl cover instead of the hatch in the back. The one in the pic was used as a first responder vehicle, and...

    Wheel covers?

    Ok, another one for you. Can you get stainless steel or chrome wheel covers that fit the wheels on a deuce? Or baby moons for the back wheels? I'm thinking that with a stainless exhaust and glossy clear coat might make a classy ride. Still in dreaming mode. :drool:

    Twofer

    OK, been doing some research, but I have two questions that I didn't find an answer for. 1. Do you need a CDL in Ohio for a deuce? 2. How much modification can you do on a deuce and still get antique plates? I'm talking super singles and maybe moving the bed back to enlarge the cab...

    New Guy posting

    Hello everyone! I'm eventually planning on buying a deuce since I sold my pickup (worn out) and I just can't see spending 40-50K for a new 1 ton. It will be a couple of years before I can afford to buy, but window shopping free right? Anyway, I have in mind some mods I'd like to do. I'm a big...
