    New Deuce is here. Parts Bonanza Too!

    Here's the beast. It's says it's a 1959 on the data plate. Still has the old OD green on the inside. Interior is in great shape, but I do need a driver seat back recovered.

    New Deuce is here. Parts Bonanza Too!

    I thinks the parts value might almost catch up to the value of the truck! I might sell off some of the extras I dont anticipating using,

    Best way to clean and degrease?

    I bought a gallon of the Simple Green and will see how it does. It's supposed to be safe. Wow that Zep Purple is Nasty stuff!! Unless you want to remove your paint I guess.

    New Deuce is here. Parts Bonanza Too!

    This is stamped on the truck cargo cover. It's canvas and has the separate end covers. No idea how to install these.

    New Deuce is here. Parts Bonanza Too!

    I think one of the tops I gave is a cargo trailer cover. It's also new. Don't have a trailer though. Could those rounds poles be parts of a trailer too?

    New Deuce is here. Parts Bonanza Too!

    I think I have some stuff that doesn't go on the truck. Anyone know what these 3 round poles are for? One of them has a couple straps attached.

    New Deuce is here. Parts Bonanza Too!

    Well my truck got here today right on time today. Here's the thread on the purchase: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?124691-Finally-coming-to-fruition!!-Getting-a-Deuce! I think I got a really good deal. I paid $6,000 for the truck. Cost me another $1,000 to get it shipped here...

    Finally coming to fruition!! Getting a Deuce!

    Thanks! That would be awesome if it was just some loose bolts. The truck has sat for awhile (maybe 6 months) without being driven. That's another reason I opted to ship vs. drive. Hopefully just giving her some exercise will help.

    Best way to clean and degrease?

    Thanks for all the suggestions! I can borrow a pressure washer easy enough. I'll check around and see if any rental places have the steam cleaners.

    Best way to clean and degrease?

    I just committed to a duece that will be in my hands on Saturday. When I test drove it, the engine and transmission were pretty oilly and greasy. I want to clean it all up so I can track down and fix any leaks. What's the best way to clean her up? Is a pressure washer a no-no? What's a good...

    Finally coming to fruition!! Getting a Deuce!

    I couldn't stand it. I read and re-read every thread I could find on the possible issues with the truck. I kept coming back with, "I can do that". It was just too good of a deal with all the spare parts and the winch. So, I just overnighted a check and found a shipper. It will be in my...

    Finally coming to fruition!! Getting a Deuce!

    Well back home without a deuce. Sadly it wasn't quite what I thought. Was a little "rougher" in person. probably a good deal for someone with more experience and the means to tackle bigger jobs. It's a shame because there were a lot of extra parts. The extra tires (mounted on wheels) looked...

    Finally coming to fruition!! Getting a Deuce!

    After years of yearning for a Deuce, it's finally happening!! I have had an offer accepted on a nice looking winch truck. I am getting what I think is a screaming good deal on the truck. Fiberglass troop seats, lots of spare parts (14 wheels and tires!), cargo cover, etc. etc. Looks like it...

    Just for fun - old pattern arctic camo

    When I had my Pinz I wanted to do this (also Photoshop Job): Would have been really cool, especially around here where full blown winter lasts 6 months of the year.
