    Well since that job was done, it was time to put it in a local old truck show in Jun 2017. The deuce didn't win but the mutt took first place. Since this is about the truck I won't post the mutts award. The truck has done other odd jobs since then but I'll have to get with my boy to share some...

    Remember the leaking rear main seal? Well I finally got around to it in July 2015. I was looking for an original hoist to take it out but couldn't find one so went to HF and bought a transmission jack. Can't remember what we put the jack on to get it up to the transmission but I can guarantee it...

    Remember that leaking rear main well I ignored it for now because that takes time to accomplish. So I did the next best thing and bought a trailer for the truck. Don't worry the truck wasn't driven much with the leaking rear main. Bought trailer Feb 2014.

    The nomination photo I used was from the DLA auction site back in March 2012 and was at Fairchild AFB in WA. After I won the auction I had to wait until May 2012 to pick it up and yes it was on Memorial Day that I picked it up. Although DLA was shutdown for the holiday, the individual that I...

    Not much to show on the tug as I haven't done much other than cleaning it up and removing the push bar the forest service put on it. Interesting thing about the tug is that its 1 of 30 that had the brake system modified by the military to allow it to pull MHU-196 or MHU 173 munition trailers...
