good job on the paint job.

sounds like a good plan but keep us posted with pictures as to how it is coming along.

welcome aboard and this hobby is very addictive.

Congrats on the first win.

I haven't done flat but with gloss paint I used to wet sand before I applied the clear coat.

Welcome aboard. And thank you for your service. I will agree with wreckerman and say that price is a little high. Maybe you can talk him down a bit. There is a wealth of knowledge on here.

Welcome aboard as well. I thought gl did away with the euc for the 101s.

are you talking about the in tank fuel pump? if so check the fuse to see if it is blown. if so just replace it. it is only about 4 bucks at radio shack. here is the link to the write up i did for it. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/73512-how-replace-tank-fuel-pump-fuse.html

i have some 40 mm ammo cans left for sale.

well went back out to check the brake shoes on the deuce. And what i thought was correct. all the brake shoes are worn beyond being servicability. so i need to get all new shoes. i am thinking the drums are going to need to be replaced as well but not sure yet as i have to take some measurements...

I have towed a 105 while moving behind my 07 f150 before without a problem. You just need to give yourself extra space and be a confident driver that can tow and know what you are doing.

the pump does run now. now i just have to purge the lines to get all the air out.

already paid 120 bucks for the seals themselves and now the rest is uncertain but will add it all up at the end

looking good. is it my eyes or is the front a little bit higher than in the back?

i just bought the vehicle not to long ago and as it turns out the previous owner didnt do any maintenance on the vehicle at all.
