Recovery went beautiful!!!!! I drove it 130mi home without a hitch....Thanks again coolcars!!!!!!!! Wouldn't have been the same without you! Ben

Everything else is there...just need a winch....anyone got an extra???

I appreciate that Karl...but I plan on putting a winch back on the truck...(PO had no idea where it was) go figure! So I'm guessing I won't need that guard... Thanks for thinking of me! Ben

Ok....we're leaving early tomorrow for the recov....first let me thank 101coolcars for all his help!!!! Also, thanks to everyone else that has contributed to the forums and stickies.....PRICELESS!!!! Ben (Lots of pics and possibly video coming soon!)

Thanks 101... Nice to see you here!

On the paint removal....I think most of it will come off with red nozzle on the pressure washer....that plus a wire cup on 6" grinder ;) Ben

I ve called pretty much every company out there....then my friend with the other deuce said he uses State Farm...I'm gonna call his agent who is familiar with deuces tomorrow... Ben

The cab corners have a little rust....but the paint is the worse I've seen on any vehicle EVER! Looks like 7 coats of Wally World tan interior latex or some crap.....cracking and pealing everywhere. Ben

Well, the recovery should go pretty smooth...(hope)...I have a friend with another deuce and tow bar. So IF I can't get this truck prepped for the 2.5hr trip home through the mountains we will bring the other deuce....to tow it back....I think I have all the tools and other misc, diesel oil...

Ok here are the pics....
