Nube from Concord NC

[Scottd9990]

Hi Folks! I am a retired Coast Guard Chief Gunners Mate living in Concord NC (1981-2001). Into motorcycles, guns, shooting, fishing, camping and military vehicles. I have dreamed of owning a Deuce and making it into a camping rig. I see several for sale here, which is going to get me Divorced!!! After that I guess I can travel anywhere I want?

Regards,

Scott Davis
Concord NC

Well welcome to the disease. Let me know what you are looking for I have a few customers with M35a2s for sale the prices vary on what options they have. If you include your wife in this hobby, she will love it. It is a family friendly hobby with lots of great people. Bring her to the Weare Rally and she will be hooked

Welcome! If you are wanting an original deuce (as in, not bobbed) then the one I have is about as nice of one as you will find for the price! Come drive it home! If you want to ride in a 5-ton and deuce stop by, might give you an idea which you would rather have.

Nice Deuce, and you didn't have to pay too much for it! Have you made a camper out of them before?

 

[Scottd9990]

All new to me. First deuce. Tryingbto figure out power to the rear box. Nothing seems to work.

 

[Scottd9990]

Working on tag and title now. Once done plan to bring deuce to Concord for paint and start work on camper.

PO ran on the truck on mostly WMO so its a dog right now. I put 1/2 tank of diesel in yesterday and had a bit more power. Can now get to 2400 in 5th gear but no more. Fuel filters are next to change out. Reading TM and learning how to drive and work on the truck. Having fun!!!
