3 months after I drove it home

[WillWagner]

Well, finally figured out how to post a pic, higher res. equals more pixels! Here it is, 3 months after I drove it home. New master cyl, rebuilt air pak, re-set overhead, new top and touch up on the paint, and changed fluids. Still needs a t-case, sprague type now, works in reverse but not forward, and troop seats..picking them up next week..hopefully

Looks Great, I really like the camo colors and pattern. There is always something to do to the Deuces, but the work and effort you put into them is given back to you the minute you sit behind the wheel

Same colors as it was when i got it. Sat for 8 years in a school/police yard. As far as I can tell, this is the 3rd coat of paint, the original OD, the cammo on top of that and the coat I put on. Not a bad deal for 200.00! I agree, the minuite you sit behind the wheel is the best, all the kids love it. I wish there was a way to find out by the ID numbers, where it was stationed or where it served. This is turning into a very fun hobby!

Looks great! Did you buy the entire truck for $200? If so that is one heck of a deal!

 

[Recovry4x4]

Thats a screamin deal at $200. Haven't got deals like that since DRMO days. Love it! Also note the correct placement of the flag!

As usual, Kenny will notice things nobody else will see.

Thanks to Kenny for tips on flag placement. Well, I paid $600.00 for a lot with 3 items, This truck with a water buffalo behind it and a 4000# Hyster forklift. I originally wanted just the f-lift for my bro-in-laws boat repair business in Lake Havasu. Got the truck with the f-lift. I know a guy who is restoring a ghost town somewhere up in the Owens Valley I think, and he was interested in the buffalo for fire water storage, tried to sell it on e-bay...think I started too high, so I ended up selling it to the ghost town guy for $350.00. I just figured 3 big items, $600.00, just split the costs up..$200. each, that's what my Bro-in-law paid me for the lift, but I guess if you do the math, it only really cost $50.00 for the truck. Wait till I tell my wife, she thinks it was $200.00 too much..Women!\
There is a sticker on the drivers window. It came from ElToro DRMO.

I'll give you $500 for it...

I'm gnna go get some troop seats and an air t-case later this week, that makes it a 900.00 truck! Nope, don't think i wanna sell it, too much fun. Thanks for the offer.

I know what you mean. Eventually I will have one. Been seriously thinking about putting the M715 back together and sell it for a Deuce, but I still can't convince myself that I need something that big, lol. Once I get one though, I doubt I let it go, especially for a price like yours. That's almost unheard of these days.
