I been talking to guys in the Deuce forums and I found several people searching for a purge tank for their radiators on their trucks. They were all in what I refer to as" Marine mode " you know.............NO offense Marines (actually a compliment) "IMPROVISE,ADAPT, OVERCOME !!!" Well I'm all about that in a pinch ,but when there are options I tend to do less fabricating and do more adapting,
Which brings me to this place at this time. I found a part I think will easilly adapt to Deuces/5Tonners etc. When I found these , after hearing the proposed modification of about anything from a Chlorox bottle to a 1Qt. canteen.
I snagged all the guy had of them to try and salvage what was shaping up
to be an "UGLY" mod. For the most part. The more I studied these tanks the more I felt they were originally used on something of armored nature,so before they all get gone I wanted to run the pics bye a few of you armor types to see if it's a part from something someone recognizes and may need for a resto. I included the stock # and all the dimensions that I felt might be pertinent to making an I.D.
So with that said I am open to comments & speculation .
