Ty: Just saw this. Glad it worked out for ya. When I did mine, I had the certificate of ownership in hand, along with the SF97. Clerk took both, along with my money, and two weeks later I had the title in hand. Don't know if the SF97 was needed or not, but according to the law, it shouldn't...

We had a 6-71 in a '68 Ward Lafrance. It was a screamer, and a really nasty leaky smokey truck, that you didn't have to worry about ever rusting. Never had a minute's trouble out of it, as long as you kept feeding it oil. We did have it run backwards one night, and that was very interesting...

It came from Redstone with the clear line. The line going across the top to the manifold is clear also. I just noticed that I didn't really explain why I thought these were the issues that cause my difficulty in starting. I am assuming that these bad connections are allowing air to enter the...

I don't think you need the title from the seller here in TN, if the truck is over 30 years old. You need to complete and submit a "Certificate of Ownership" with the application for a title, at the same time you register/license the truck. TN State Law, TCA 55-3-103 states: (2)...

In the last couple of weeks, mine has become a 3 push start also. Very irritating to say the least. I think I have found what the problem is. There are fuel lines across the top of the injectors, I have one that is wet with fuel. The line also T's over to the manifold heater I guess, and it...

Getting ready to re-paint the deuce. Decisions, decisions, decisions..... My son really likes the darker green with the brown and black camo. I want to go with a flat finish to hide the imperfections. We will be using rattle-cans, so he can help with this project. I think we will go with...

Several years ago, probably in the mid-80's, my dad got a several gallons of MilSpec Olive Drab paint (actual Miltary paint). Back then, he painted most all of his old farm equipment with it, basically just painting over the rust. That stuff still has the paint on it, and doesn't look like...

Congrats! Nothing like making it home without any problems. Glad to see your kids like the new additions. Family trips are in your future, for sure! BTW: Camo big orange would look real nice on both the truck and trailer !!!! :wink: Tell 'Trish the homeboys from Henrietta said Howdy!

Here's some shots of "Dixie" in the pasture....

My wife won't even look at it, and changes the subject when my son and I start talking about it around her. My daughter (15) thinks I'm crazy, but she had some friends over after we got home (boys :-x) and they though it was cool. I guess you either love them, or you hate them. Not much in...

Yes sir, we did just that! No hurries, no worries, and the ice cream at the Dairy Queen was perfect. :-D

My boy has been sooooo excited about this truck! He's happier than a "tornado in a trailer park" a quote my boy uses quite often from TowMater in Disney's "Cars". He's already asked me when he can drive it. Think I'll let him drive around the fields behind the house this Saturday morning...

Have decided to call our Deuce "Whistlin' Dixie" because of the whistling turbo. (If it's not a whistler, then I would hate to listen to one that is for 150+ miles.) Got to Redstone, checked in at Gate 3, and was given directions to the GL Office. We decided that the guards there had too much...

Success !!!!! :-D:-D We're home. (Actually arrived about 18:00 hours, been on the mower) Absolutely no issues whatsoever !!! I'll get pictures up later tonight or in the morning... ;-):-D:wink:

Thanks ! Going though the list once more before shower and sleep. Should be good weather for a recovery.

Tomorrow's the big day !! :-D Got my tools, batteries, filters, fluids, etc. all layed out in the basement ready to load up, and hit the road early in the morning. Should I call Teresa and verify which gate we should enter the base from? I've read in other posts that Gate 10 is to be used...

I have had my home and auto insurance through Farm Bureau as long as I have had autos and a home. Stopped by the local office today, and got a new policy for my soon to be picked up Deuce. Had to go with commercial, liability only. They had to call the underwriters at the home office to make...

... bug spray, sunscreen, and large floppy hat. Sounds like a beach trip to me. No, wait, that's the week after the Deuce recovery! :grin: Gonna killl me and my boy to leave the Deuce in the pasture while we play at the Redneck Riveria.....

Thanks. I hope we can get her home without any problems, but if something comes up that we can't handle from the git-go, I'll surely give you a call. (I'll PM for contact info). Will post up our route once it gets ironed out. Ty: I'll touch base with you and let you know our plans...

I almost never leave home without it... :wink:
