    Deuce designations

    Here's my understanding of it..the M35 started out with the 6 cylinder gold comet gasoline engine. they were later upgraded to the ealry multifuel. Later on they were upgraded to the White/Hercules multi-fuels and designated as an A2 which was also upgraded to the newer style of composite lights...

    Split Rims - Bud wheel vs. Combat Wheel

    Combat wheels have bolts all the way around holding the two halves together, much like the HMMWV wheel that way you can disassemble them in a front line environment with simple hand tools and replace the tire.

    m35a2 top speed only 47

    You can easily turn the fuel up on these trucks. I really hate to post the information here though because you can hurt your motor if you don't know what you are doing. More fuel=more heat. Anytime you have a supercharged or turbocharged engine you are compressing air to "cram" it into the...

    How many MV's?

    Todd, I'll do that for sure. First step will be removing all the civilian paint off of it <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_shrug.gif" alt="Shrug">

    M35A2 Windshield Glass

    I've got a pic my dad took of a deuce in Korea. They started taking fire and so my dad was passenger, hopped up to fire the .50 in the ring mount which luckily jammed so he crouched down onto the floor, seconds later a bullet came through the windshield! This was years after the Korean war was over.

    How to spot CARC?

    CARC isn't always stenciled on the vehicle. I'm to the point now I can look at CARC and tell, but what a lot of people do is take a rag with lacquer thinner and start scrubbing. If the paint starts to come off it's not CARC. CARC is no more nasty when you're sanding than any other paint. When...
