MY first deuce (and first US vehicle)

I thought I would share pics of the first US vehicle I bought. Its a 53 xm211. As you can seeits gonna need a lot of work. Is supposed to ahve new brakes on all wheels, new master cyl. BUT needs trans work supposedly. I will be hauling it home soon hopefully so I can get to working ont. First on the agenda is getting it running, driveable, then taking the ugly bed off, custom build a bed and winch system to haul my ferret. Its going to be a lot of work I know.

Tell me what ya think of it. Oh and that goofy top has gotta come off and be fixed back for an original type soft top, I like the soft tops better actually.

oops, forgot the pic

Cool truck! That top may be an original type, others here should know better. It sounds like you have a plan, good luck. Also, how about a picture or two of the ferret? Eric

Welcome!!! nice truck!!! I have a 1952 m211 it has a differant hard top.. Good luck!!!!

pic of the ferret as requested.

Oh Yeah, That is SWEET! Someday......
thanks! Eric

That deuce looks like it belongs on Sesame Street. Please paint it OD when you get a chance!

Nice Ferret! Really nice!

oh, it'll be green in a few weeks, for sure!

Is that a dump bed? If so, I'll make you an offer for it.

yes, it is a dump bed
