Another new deuce owner!

[phil2968]

Went with my brother to pick up his deuce! I drove my M109 for support. Put about 180 miles on it today. He got a nice m35 with winch, airshift transfer and a d-turbo. It has the tall canvas top and good troop seats.

I think we need to change fuel filters and maybe turn up the fuel a little bit. my m109 walks off a leaves him on the highway. Overall seems to be a sound truck.

My M109 started spitting oil out of the TC vent, lubed the outside of the rear axles really well!

Some pics of the trip up, and at Tim's house. Pics of the trip home and a stop for lunch. A pic of the new owner, my brother, and his new ride. And yes he's already been reading the TM's! He's familer with big trucks, drives engine 31 for the City of Lakeland Fire dept.

He is also a new member of SS!
I tried to warn him what would happen if he drove my M109! I tried to warn him!

He also won two M105 trailers from GL in La, still waiting on euc approval.

We will be attending the 2010 Florida rally since it's right in our backyard.

Phil,

Congrats on the smooth recovery. Are we gonna see him and his truck in GA later this year???

 

[phil2968]

I hope he makes it. I need someone to convoy with! We will also be looking for a towbar to purchase somtime in the near future. I want him to go to the Ga rally so I can drive his truck on the trails and leave mine at camp!

Good recovery and nice trucks.......so....we'll see you both with trucks at the GA Rally.....right.

I'm expecting to see him in the Florida member databse REAL SOON!

Looks like a nice truck!

 

[phil2968]

You saw me with my M109 there in 2009 and I will be there for the road kill stew 2010!

Nice looking trucks! I see the M35A2 has spin on oil filters, I am presuming this wasn't a GL purchase? It is always nice to hear about safe and successful recoveries!

 

[clinto]

That's a great truck Winch, spin on's, air shift, etc.

Congrats to your brother! Looking forward to seeing you guys in October!

 

[Recovry4x4]

Looks good Phil. Clinto, when are you going to make the trip down here to the southern rally?

 

[Green_gator]

Good job on the successful recovery and looking forward to seeing both of you at the Florida Rally.

Yep, I'm hooked all right! And it only took one drive in Phill's M109 to get me that way too! Thanks for all the praise on my new ride I got from Tim! I'll be at the FL Rally this weekend, I'm looking forward to seeing everyone there and some warmer weather too. I'll be back at the firehouse Wednesday, I'll check the October vacations then and put in for some time off so I can be at the GA Rally as well. Maybe I'll have my M105 trailers by then lol.
