    Ft Sam USAF Deuce unusual Camoflage?

    Take a look at the paint on this Air Force deuce . . . has anyone ever seen this quasi-MERDEC camo on a 1988 year model truck? I know we have all seen the straight 686 tan trucks come from the Air Force, but this 3 color is new to me. This truck if fresh out of service from one of the AF...

    Woodworth, LA 1009 Previews

    I did not, but I sure was tempted to bid on the M275A2 Deuce tractor they had. Here's an idea for your 1009. Call up the VFD that had it and ask them why they turned it in! I just did that with my newest M880 from GSA. It was still camo, but I knew it came from fire service because of a...

    Hooks, Tx pickup

    Ha Ha, that is Ms. Neely. Once you get to know her you'll like her. She is all business at first. Visit the GL site and print out the map for RRAD. You will take the Commerical Vehicle Entrance from US Hwy 82. Park with the 18 wheelers waiting to load out, go into the trailer office and go...

    Jimmy - Save or not?

    OK, I need ya'll opinion on this one. I bought this sad '42 Banjo axle LWB Cargo CCKW for $300. Mainly because it has a complete front axle and transfer case. My question is, should I save the entire truck or not? Here are the stats: Frame not cut, but has been fishplated behind the cab...

    M101A2 and SR97 Problem

    The serial number is the same as the VIN. It is possible you may have to stamp some more info onto the the data plate ;-). Or easier yet, tell the tax office your trailer is a 2010 "shopmade"

    LCM 6 Info wanted, Landing Craft

    OK, I am just familiar with the rudders on PT boats, but so far as you describe they seem to be the same. I believe that at this point (with the nut removed), the rudder is ready to drop out of the hull. The upper bearing will remain for you to remove later. Try striking the upper end of the...

    Vendetta, you got a good deal on your truck trust me. It is really clean. If I were you, I would bring 2 batteries, a driveshaft, and the instruments, bolt it all on right quick, and drive her home. The Ft Sam GL/DRMO yard is super clean and organized and does not have derelict deuces off in...

    ....12-ton trailer...?

    The only trailer I have ever seen a half track on in any original WWII pictures is the C-2 wrecking trailer. Attached is a pic of mine. It is 12 ton rated with 10.00-15 LPT tires. The M-series version of this trailer (also 12 ton) is the M269 (short) and M270 (long). These trailers have...

    Both. Starter is 24V, rest of the electrical system is 12V. The alternator produces 12V and has a second rectifier for 24 V. Also has a 24V circuit to power tactical trailers.
