I'm wondering about the slightly darker shade of the cab top, If/when I paint her tan I may try to pick a shade in between the two shades to kinda help them blend. Either that or go with the cargo shade and just have the cab top slightly darker?

The well is starting to run dry on cucv's. Its simple supply and demand, supply is running very low while demand has remained the same or increased. I saw a M1008 with "needs new starter & does not run" go for 4k in Alabama about a month ago. Prices are going up fairly soon I will not be...

Thanks Dave, I did get the right truck! Yes, Dan and Scott are great and I have something to give them both which they might like once I get back.
Oh I don't know while at some point my truck will end up a Desert Storm truck I think the red needs to stick around for a couple of years maybe...
Thanks kurt, Rydel Edwards also offered a few, so we should be able to piece together a complete set! I'll leave that call up to Dan and Scott though. This Deuce came from the Snohomish County Fire Department.

b. Registration Number:041390971 (best guess/3rd party info)
c. NSN without dashes 2320000771616 or 2320009260873...
On a serious note, Rydel offered to recover the seats with his commercial sewing machine. I just have to come up with the canvas. I know some riggers who might give me enough canvas to recover the seats. I'll find out when I get back.

Lol Kenny, If I had a spare truck I'd put a Arctic cargo cover on it. Then put some white "A's" on the doors, paint an elephant head on the hood and get a "roll tide" air horn.....(you see where I'm going with this) bolt a red and white cooler into the truck bed. Drive her down to Bama and flip...

Dan,
Almost forgot, can you post a pic of data plate/or just pm me the info? also frame VIN #?
I want to post on Carnac's 2012 VIN info thread and see what army unit she last belonged to.
Thanks,
Dale
Thanks Sneaker. Oh MV's yeah while this is my first Deuce, I have a M1008 and I used to have a M1009. Also had a M116 trailer too.
