i ended up using a PPG color that they mixed up for me for 50$ a gallon. it is not an...
question on how to thin the 1 part CARC, what do you use? i went to sherwin williams and they said no body even has the stuff listed on the data sheet. i do not know what to use does anyone?
sounds good, i have no idea where i will be parked since i think they just put you wherever each time but hopefully we will be able to find each other and get the trucks together if possible.
my truck should look exactly like yours when i get it done, only with 1100 singles
your set up looks...

Jcappel,
were you at the rascal flatts concert last summer at starlake with an all green deuce with a winch, and canvas cargo cover??
if so, i talked to you for a while and got your number but i lost it
would it be possible to run the UMO mixed with diesel if my fuel density compensator has been bypassed? i would love to be able to add UMO to the diesel in the tank to cut down costs of driving the deuce
dont know if this helps but you might be able to call them and ask them?? looks like 383 green so it might not be right

RE: Shift Nob for a Deuce!
david,
i bought those tires to put on my truck as singles on the deuce rims sorry about the confusion
my girlfriend lives in Mt. Airy maryland and I am down there often is that close to you because i would love to stop by and see all of your trucks sometime
not sure if the tube is in there but i could not see it when i checked quickly
thanks very much for all of the answers to my questions appreciate it greatly!!!
"Keep a close eye on those steel brake lines. Looks like a few may be getting tired."
i will check the lines thanks for the advice, as of now the brakes work very well and the truck stops like a car but i will def keep an eye on the lines
