I just consulted with two of our members who own Deuces, live in Liberty Hill and have driven their trucks to club meetings, they say that it should take an hour. It would not hurt to add another 30 minutes to that to allow for traffic snafus. If you get down there early some of us form up at...

Yep, Deuce info-R-us! I will lean on Ed, but I don't really think he needs much prodding to drive the gun truck:)

Yes, this Wednesday, 18 August, is the meeting! It is the third Wednesday of the month, 1900 hours, at the Scribner Museum on Camp Mabry. We would love to see the truck and finally meet you! Ed might even bring the gun truck and you two can contrast and compare M66 rings.

I will be there with my M1009/M416 combo!

I DO have some, found them in the cavernous depths of my hard drive...

I don't have any, but I can get some, might take a while, standby...

I agree with the cable lock idea. OR if you want it to look military, use a chain and a padlock! I sometimes drive around with rubber duckies in mine and when I park it somewhere I drape a poncho over the muzzles, it physically hides them and the camo blends in so you can't really tell there is...

Good save Sir! I really do not want to have anything to do with gasoline burners, but those trucks are just too cool, I think I will eventually own one, and if I could snatch one from the jaws of the crusher that would be the cherry on top!

I know where one is a yard near me. I think the rear body is complete but the front clip is pretty rotten.

Looks much better!

Found it! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/cucv/37768-glossy-cucvs.html

Looks sharp, I saw a couple of M1008 at Ft. Sam last year painted that color, I think a SS member ended up with one of them. I posted a thread about them a while back, for the life of me I can't kind it OR my photos, my search fu is weak...

You will be advised to try the "search" feature, there is a lengthy thread on the subject! I use magnets, and a clip on LED book light, that way it comes off easily for shows.

Harbor Freight sells a riv nut set pretty cheap that should get the job done, at some point I intend to r/r all the wonky ones on my M1009, I only have one out of three mount points that is remotely usable, the rest are damaged.

I think M762 is the number. If I was anywhere near you I would be hounding you for the location of your friend's junkyard!

THANKS! Those came from my snap-shooter, I still have 9GB of images from my serious camera to wade through!

Sometimes the parking lot is also an interesting part of the show:

That belongs to Mr. Carlson, one of the "old men" of the MVPA and a figurehead in the area. That M762 trailer was pretty much the first thing I saw when we got there on Thursday and Mr. Carlson was the first person we talked to, he is the nicest person and made a great first impression! Mr...

And more:

M813RC, Reloader64 and I made the long haul to Topeka for the convention. I wanted to take my M1009 but summer heat and some mechanical nigglers put the kabosh on that idea, but I will do my best to make that happen next year! There was so much to see I am glad we stayed the entire four days...
