    Select Vehicles on Hold GL WHAT?

    I picked my truck up from Knox a couple weeks ago. I talked to the guy who was manning the DRMO office (right next to GL). He told me that my truck was slated to ship to Bolivia but, since some type of trade embargo was just placed on Bolivia my truck was transferred over to the GL for auction...

    I wonder why they pulled all the m35a2s

    I picked my first Deuce from Knox last week. I asked the GL attendant why all the Deuces at Frankfort were pulled. He told me that concern had arisen over low levels of radiation emitted by newer model glow-in-the-dark gauge clusters (hugh?). He did not elaborate on why this affected older...

    Recovery at Knox today - Sale 4678

    Sorry for the late notice - but I am making my recovery at Fort Knox today. If any of you guys from sale 4678 need me to look at anything on your trucks let me know. This is my first Deuce so the anticipation is killing me. My vision is already blurry from squinting at my monitor for the last 5...

    GL cluster in Frankfort, KY yesterday

    Curious if anybody was involved in the fiasco in Frankfort, KY yesterday. GL had a set Duece viewing time from 10 am until 1pm. Showed up at 10:15 and guess what? GL rep never made it. We were not let on base and cars with hopeful previewers were stacking up. We were finally let in by base...

    Any Ft. Knox recoveries?

    NHdiesel - Unless my eyes deceived me, I do not think the plate in the picture contains serial #data. I am pretty sure the plate with all the data would have been to the left of the plate that is still affixed above the glove box. I was in a hurry and am no expert though, so please do not get to...

    Any Ft. Knox recoveries?

    Bad news NHdiesel - your data plates are gone. I heard you were in need of some info so while I was down at Knox doing PMCS on my truck I checked yours out. I was in a bit of a rush to get on with my day (spent 3 hours on my truck) but it was obvious that the data plates had been recently pulled...

    I No Buy Today.....U?

    Here is my new purchase (attached). This is one of the trucks from Knox. I wanted one of the trucks with road tires, but the price was right for this one. I talked a DRMO employee that said all the trucks in this auction ran fine when he drove them in, but they had been in the yard about a...

    What would you pay??

    Just curious whats the most you guys would pay for a 1970 Jeep Deuce with winch and standard cargo bed. Lets say the DRMO description said "driven in" but you were unable to verify actual running condition. Looks good in the pictures of course.

    Oil in Coolant???

    Hello all - new member from KY here. I am currently debating the purchase of my first deuce but am a bit concerned about a possible water in oil issue. I went to DMV and inspected the truck and it seems pretty solid. The attendant told me the truck was driven onto the lot in the Spring but...
