I know I am remiss with respect to pics. I took some but cannot figure out how to get them off my old camera to a newer computer. Workin on it. At any rate it seems I am looking at spending a fortune in batteries. Anyone ever us the battery rejuvinator stuff? Grasping at straws here.
Rusty and Brakeless are home at last. No problems and nice fall colors up M53 and M15. Thanks for the advice and help. All for now, as I am going back out to rub my antlers on them.
Thanks, I assume he will have something running with 24 volts also. I will have tools, brake fluid, a tow bar and someone who has done this befor. Rusty will likely tow brakeless and we will come up M15.
I do hope Harley gets his EUC soon as he seems as anxious as I was.
Recovery
I am going to pick mine up tomorrow and have a question. Does Joe have the ability to jump start the trucks or should I bring a 24 volt source?
Received my EUC
I had an email this morning from GL. This was my first EUC and it took about 50 days. I do not know if other first timers from Selfridge are receiving EUCs yet, but if not, take heart. Ol' brakeless and Ol' rusty are comin' home!
Just checkin' in and still waiting for my EUC. I cleaned out the barn to make room for the two I hope to recover. I bought a gallon of brake fluid. Sigh.
Harleyrkc, I hope so. I don't want to be left waiting alone while everyone else is playing with thier trucks. I do intend to wait, however, as I like the trucks I bought. Do I understand correctly that at 60 days one should request an extension so your auctions are not cancelled? I am not good...
Ha, it seems to me that I am more accepting of blemishes than most. Recall I bought the "rusty" and "brakeless" 5612 and 5662. Happy to have them if I ever get an EUC!
The next Michigan auction perhaps you would help me look a little closer. That Vassar truck looked good to me, I suppose I am...
I am going crazy as you guys all recover your trucks and I wait fo my first EUC.
Buying something small requiring an EUC so you can have one on file prior to bidding on a truck seems like good advice. Wish I had done so. By the way, the m35a2 in Vassar went for around $3400 with tax and buyers...
I think I must not be very good at EUCs, but my EUC was sent to Battle Creek finally also. I am distressed to read about some of the long (90+ days) approval times. I do not want to recover my rusty truck and my brakeless truck in December!
I hope to meet some of you in Clair this Friday...
Hello,
New to the hobby, just bought two Deuces.
Has the Clair meet happened already? If not can someone post details?
I would like to find a motor generator or info on same. (27VDC to 155VAC}.
Thanks for your input Bob H. I appreciate knowing about the brakes. I do not have far to go and access to a towbar and another Deuce owner in Vassar to help me recover my treasures.
Thanks for the welcome. I will check the Vassar truck out tomorrow and am really looking forword to getting my two home. I did preview these but could have done a better job. Three things were againsed me in this respect: I tried to see them all, It was Hot!, and the bees. That is why I am...
