Well, i have lurked for a while and signed up a few weeks ago.

I took possession of my first deuce today. It just needed new batteries and it started right up. I had a friend who was a mechanic on these in the Army came with me. I'm not sure who was more excited.

New tires, good paint, no rust, and a full tank of diesel! it just doest get any better than that.

Interestingly it has a 465-1c in it. and an ether start. and a chain in the floor to lock the steering wheel with.

ill take more pics tomorrow.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers, Todd! That's a great looking truck......

I know when I brought my Deuce home, my Dad was more excited than I was....

also, it had the breaker bar and lug nut sockets, a few wrenches, a jack, and - coolest of all- a tire filler with an air hose rigged up to fit the aux air out in the back.

I assume its a Montana National Guard rig. It was nice of those guys to leave that stuff.

Sharp looking deuce! Wish they made cargo covers in desert camo pattern, rather than just plain tan.
