True, but especially true about niche, oddball MV's like complete M54 cargo's, deuce dumps, halftracks, etc... You can find occasional examples of ragged out versions of these, but the pristine examples tend to sell more often for pristine prices because there are far fewer of them to begin...

Well, the $12,000 price you quoted is ridiculously inflated IMO, so it's probably not a good comparison....It is simply a deuce with a dump... Granted, it's somewhat scarce, but the ONLY reason I would personally buy it is to resell. There is simply no guarantee of it's saleable desirability in...

Here's the ended auction prices: AssetAuctions I watched these auctions for several weeks but decided that these trucks were simply too rough for me to buy and resell and make any money on, (considering tranportation, etc). As you can see, they closed for $1300-$1500 each. They may have...

That would be me...I have a really nice set of troop seats for this truck that looks brand new. Price is $200 and can be picked up in east Tennessee.

No, these are defintely not for a standard deuce bed....Look at each the staves....Several are longer than others. I got my info from a search of the archives and came up with this post: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/33655-pnw-m342-m342a2-dump-truck-troop-seats.html His seats were the...

Strange deuce troop seats...M342A2 dump? I had Eric deliver my deuce from Forest Park GA...I knew it has what looked like a new set of troop seats in the rear of the bed when the pic was took. The plan was to use these nice seats/racks to replace the ones on my winch deuce truck. OK, all...

Thanks guys....I'll go buy a couple of Walmart specials tomorrow and replace them and see how it does....

Eric from Hotshot did the delivery from Forest Park to central Tennessee, (fine job I might add..I highly recommend him). Once the truck was ready to unload, the batteries will not do anything, so we pull started it...Eric had to pull start it at Forest Park...Truck ran and drove fine once...

This was on a really nice deuce that recently sold on Ebay for $8000+ It is a 24V gooseneck light...Anybody know where this model can be bought?

Napa just quoted me a price of $120 per bulb....Eriks has them for $25 new. I was hoping just to find someone that had changed over to Hella's and had their old bulbs laying around....The bezel being gone adds another small problem, but I'm sure someone has some of them as well..

I just got my deuce delivered last night from Frankfort...Good overall truck except that the army or someone? took both headlights in between the time that the truck was offered for sale and the time that it was picked up. I just need two used headlights and one bezel assembly with screws...

I won a running deuce at Forest Park GA...My EUC cleared and I need an honest and reliable member to pick it up for me there and store it at their home or business in the Atlanta area.... They only allow pick-ups on Thursday, so next Thursday would be ideal. I'll gladly pay a reasonable fee to...

A local guy has a crane for sale. An acquaintance says that it was towed behind a deuce and one that he says mounted on the back of a deuce. I'm not too sure the guy knows what he's talking about.. I don't know the model of either, but I inlcuded some pics. Anybody know what these are and...

Hi Carnac, I got my M54A2 w/winch home yesterday... Made by Kaiser in 1968. It was acquired from GSA and was a US Forest Service loan to Tennessee Division of Forestry. It looks like a TEAD rebuild on the motor in 1988, so the transfer to forestry was probably in the 1990's...No NSN that I can...

Well, I am 35 days into my wait... Alot of it depends on how the inquiry is worded. I simply asked my Representative to inquire about MY particular auction lots and see if he could possibly expedite them. I didn't give broad complaints about the system. And I have gotten ZERO guaranty from...

I am not "sitting tight" which is exactly why I wrote to both of my US Senators in addition to the Congressman I wrote a week ago. Remember, we have a 60 day clock ticking and better than 35 days is gone on the Frankfort auctions. Sitting tight is fine as long as GL sits tight and doesn't...

Yeah, and then by then it's 58 days into a 60 day window...End result, auction cancelled by GL and my truck relisted and sold for double what I paid because of the new "rarity" of the trucks... Naah...Not me... I'd rather start this pressure at 30 days into my EUC clearing with full court...

No, hardly......As I shook my head repeatedly while working for them, I can assure you that most are mindless government minions.....A very small minority actually think outside the box...

I simply contacted my US Congressman AT HIS HOME ADRESSS a week ago. I know there are a lot of flag waving people on here that think the Federal government is by and large alright and moral and right and because "we agreed" to allow them to seize our trucks 100 years from now because of a...

This is exactly why I ignored all of the folks on here that said "It'll all be fine just like it always has". I sent a personal letter to my US Congressman's house a week ago explaining this. Maybe it will get my truck released quickly, maybe not... I have learned to not swim with the pack...
