Well, I didn't win but thanks to all that believed in the "Little Deuce that could". A second place tie with that gorgeous tank that Augdog entered is indeed something to be proud of. I don't know if this hobby of ours is a disease or a labor of love. Either way I'm glad I caught the bug. My...

Final stencil application. The weather cooperated today and yesterdays rain didn't wash off all our hard work. Anyway, that's the lot. I have a few more to order such as the "no step" that goes on the mushroom and the "sling point" that goes between to rear wheels on the frame support. If you...

That's a really cool story. I like it when someone restores and MV for a reason or has a great story attached to it. It kinda brings a different light, almost life to the vehicle. I had the same idea in mind and this is the reason I bought and decided to restore a 1951 M43 Ambulance. My Dad was...

We finally got around to adding the final touches this evening. The hood star and numbers got stenciled but only 30min before the rain caught us. Didn't have time to take picks of final outcome. Will post tomorrow if they haven't been washed off. Since the smoke has cleared from the great Tank...

Back on her own 10 feet again. I finally traded out her old worn out 9x20's for the beefier 11x20's. Wow, what a difference. Took her on her first test drive this afternoon and all seems well. It was quite literately a cloud of dust and a hardy high ho Silver. There was enough blast media still...

Thought I'd add a few more picks of the past few days work. These picks are after 4 gallons of Rapco 24087.. She's a 72 model so I figured there weren't enough deuce owners out there willing to go the extra yardage to take it back "Old School". The wheels and stenciling should go on this weekend...

You'll have to admit that Blueduce is the "Cinderella story here". I had the ugliest date at the prom for years. Now she is going back original 24087 and in a few short weeks will hopefully be the bell of the ball.
