    Do we have an official Bobbed Deuce picture thread? If not, here it is! Post em!

    SO, Call me crazy but Although I love the look of the Deuce, the cab is a bit too slim for fitting much in there in the way of gear for camping and such. I had the idea (again, crazy, I know) to widen the cab at the front to be almost as wide as the fenders - then run it back into a double cab -...

    M1083 & Gichner S280 Overland Expedition Build

    Hey there - Great build! A cautionary note on those batteries though - they off gas and need venting to exterior - Hydrogen Sulfide gas if I remember correctly. A year or so back I bought a bunch of RV tanks,fitiings, toilet, heater, water heater etc from a local RV'er - hoping to do a similar...

    Has anyone ever just put a camper shell on a deuce instead of modifying a M109?

    Ive been thinking about this idea myself for many years. Great concept. I hsd the idea turn into a slightly different business model andd ended up buying a transit bus and converting it into my new business. During the build I had to cut out the entire side of the bus and then remove and cover...

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    You could always make up a quick double-wall heat shiels out of a couple pieces of muffler pipe - if you stopped by a shop I bet they'd give you a few short pieces for nothing... - Good idea being safe than sorry, your safety is paramount.

    Chevy/Ford Body on deuce frame??

    I had this same thought because I wanted much more room in the cab for people and gear. The Deuce cab is pretty skinny and the other cabs - like the Kodiak 45,5500 and such - use the whole width of the cab. Plus, I REALLY like the look of the 4 door ones a lot of municipalities are using. You...

    Nylon Radiator Fan?

    Maybe it would be feasible to install the electric fan and some sort of a battery backup on a switch for it so you could flip the switch and run it off the spare battery - which would also give you access to more juice if you really needed it for other things (as some others have done).

    Chopping the Top Lower. Windshield Chop Modification

    Now I'm not trying to start anything here - I'm just feeling for the OP who has clearly thought about this quite a bit and posted looking for advice. Its so frustrating when people feed you all these (serious) alternatives like "Move" - without also offering a reasonable answer to his...
