New deuce on its way to Tucson AZ, from Saginaw MI, very good guy bought the truck. As with any of these I cannot guarantee it once he gets beyond my county line. Everything is looking good and running properly. All fluid levels checked. If this gentleman has any problems along the way. I...
Well Gentleman,
It was my intention to run the logging trails. I have had my truck up there before and did not have any problems. I do appreciate the concerns for the snowmobilers and not wanting to make any trouble. It is always a risk when we take to the roads in our MV's. In this...
Where
O.k., The location I had in mind would put us on state land in Roscommon County. We could meet at the intersection of Old Hwy 27 and Grass Lake Road. There are miles of very nice trails through there and plenty of beautiful scenery. Sorry, to those of who would like a warming house...
Thank you for the kind comment. I did bob it myself, with the help of some friends. I am about 1.5 to 2 hours from 48336. If you need any help or have any questions with your projects I am happy to assist.
Anybody interested in a Michigan 2010 MV Rally February 26th-28th? There is a great piece of state land just north of Harrison that would be an excellent location. Miles of trails, beautiful scenery and a rifle range.
Thank you
Thank you all for your opinions and kind words. I am pretty happy with how the truck turned out. Of course, there are always doubts and other ideas. Should have done this, could have to that. Overall turning this truck into a bobber was a great experience. It was satisfying work...
Looking for opinions. I am thinking of painting my bobbed deuce Gloss black with a satin black chassis. I know the purest will be disappointed. However, since she is already modified I think this could be really cool. Especially with a chrome stack and mirrors. Anyway, just wanted to see...

Gentlemen,
Thank you for the replies. I should have taken more than a 5 second evaluation before I posted. I was relieved to find that she was leaking from the o-ring seals of the filters. Obviously, since they are right above the ip I should have suspected them in the first...
Started my M35 today at 28 degree F and noticed about a half a cup of oil puked out from straight underneath the fuel pump. The pump was visibly wet with fluid. I did have to pump the pedal to get her started. Not sure what happened. Could I have blown a gasket on the pump by applying...
Rmgill,
Sorry to hear about your situation. I am grateful that mine went as smoothly as it did. If there is anything I can do to help you out please let me know. In the mean time, good luck and keep fighting the good fight. Newly inspired to do something good with the truck I am going...
Indeed.
Indeed. I never though of that. I believe I can find a great deal of things that I can help my fellow man using that big beautiful piece of American Machinery!
Thanks for the idea.:grin:
The hornets nest.
Yeah, as much as I am reveling the win. I think I will try to be the better man here and not rub it in the neighbors face. I do think an MV party and convoy would be fun. But, not for the purpose of pissing off the neighbor. If I can ever get a reasonable amount for my...
I won!
I won the battle! This is a copy of the response I received today. I edit the names only.
Mr. Byrdo:
Please be advised this vehicle appeared to me to be larger than a regular type of vehicle. It probably would fall into the “Hummer” class. My interpretation of the code...
Thanks for the offer of support. Money is not the issue. In fact I would be lying if I told that I was not amused by this ordeal. All of my lot bordering neighbors love the truck. I have taken some of their kids for rides in it. It is an icon of the neighborhood. The kids just love it. I...
Removal
Their letter said nothing of removal. Just a nice $95.00 fine. At the rate the USD is deflating that will be about worthless in 1 year. Just another revenue stream for them. When I beat this thing I am going to host an MV party. You are all invited. I am not kidding either.
