Interesting question. I may buy a Deuce soon. I finally got my issue of buying a newer daily driver out of the way, and picked up a 2001 Mustang GT 5 speed. I've always wanted a Mustang to compliment the Z28. Now they're garage buddies.
Now if I just keep up my track of being impractical...
I'm really liking the 34052. I spotted a Deuce for sale in person on Wednesday, took a few pictures, and I was surprised that I like the lighter green in person too. I believe it was a faded 383 camo paint job, don't know.
That's what got me thinking about paint. I was also shocked by the...
There seems to be a lot of that going around. I thought I recognized one of them trucks from somewhere else. I only posted the link because the picture I was referring to appears to be an ebay picture, and might have been theirs at one point.
I was thinking it had some black mixed in there too. My guess was either the as mentioned forest green 34079, or O.D. 34087, possibly mixed with a bit of black. Or, maybe it was a cloudy day and made it look real dark.
I don't know, it confuses me, but it sure is some of the best looking paint...
I was just curious too see if anyone would recognize the paint on the Deuce on 53's, and knew the code. I was browsing Google, came across it, and thought it looked really good.
Here's the link for the site I found it on also.

That Deuce looks like it's loaded down!
I wonder if you can move with them things. Think they'd fit a bed, a couch, a couple small tables, a couple small TV's, and a few dozen small plastic tubs that measure around 20" x 20" by 25"? This might be even more of an excuse to buy a Deuce! We may...

With that said, I'm into drag racing and autocross. I like going a bit faster than 50 sometimes. However, your point is very valid. Unless the trans is upgraded, the brakes are upgraded, IF the axles can...
You're not keeping the truck 100% original, but think about it, you're helping to PRESERVE original parts, so that you can actually use it for what it was inteded for, while not tearing up a classic vehicle.
If any purist has a problem with that, they shouldn't be involved in the hobby. Now, I...
Congratulations on the milestone! I really can't wait to be able to go out and buy a Deuce, but, priorities first. I need a newer, lower mileage daily driver. 99K on an older Camaro with no A/C won't cut it. :roll:
This is why I'll never drink, smoke any Mary, use any kind of illegal or prescription drugs (Even pain killers, I'll deal with pain) or talk on a cell phone while driving.
Once the system gets a hold of you, it's tough.
Good luck with getting insured. It'd be ashame to see you have to sell...
