Truck dealership
There is a company in Laramie, WY that sells military vehicles. I purchased an M35A3 from them a few weeks ago. Their contact information is in the photo. You might want to get someone knowledgeable to preview a vehicle for you.
Veterans Day Parade in Grand Junction, CO
It was a rainy and windy day for a parade but there was still a good turnout. It was the first parade for my Deuce.
Veterans Day Banners
I ended up going with the designs from esign.com. They were reasonably priced at $44 each for 3' x 6'. Delivery only took 3 days. They held up well in the wind and rain of Veterans Day.
Blue:
Last fall I purchased the battery tender model that charges two 12 volt batteries at a time. I left it connected to my Deuce all winter. The truck started without any hesitation in the spring. I thought it was a good investment. I purchased mine from Amazon...
Maybe search is my friend. I found the earlier thread which talks about a Norgren R07-200-RNKA air regulator. They seem to be around $20-25 on Ebay. Is that the correct model?
Norgren Regulator
Rustygears:
I'm having similar issues with my A3. I searched Ebay for the Norgren regulator. The search produced multiple pages of results. Searching by the NSN on Ebay produced no results. Do you have any idea which model of the regulator is a replacement on the A3? The...
Baner Samples
thtrev2001:
I couldn't figure out how to link images off my local drive in a PM. These are a couple edited versions of the samples that I found online. If this looks like something that could be done, I'd be interested. Since it is Oct 20th, there isn't a lot of lead time.

I was wondering if there are any recommended sources for vehicle sized banners that would be appropriate for Veteran's Day parades. A google search did not turn up much. I did not find any listings in the SS classifieds section.
Thanks.

Apparently the MREs are a substantial part of the business. However they seem to have refurbished a large number of Deuces and regularly offer them at auction. Some have even included the gun ring. They all seem to be repainted and have bedliner in the cargo beds and all the high wear areas. The...
I was wondering if people have been generally satisfied with the Deuces that they have purchased at the MRE Depot in California. The trucks seem to look very good after they have serviced/painted them. I searched the Deuce forum but found no threads for MRE Depot.
Battery Tender
Battery Tender makes a model with dual 12 volt banks. When I stored my Deuce last winter, I disconnected the dog bone between batteries and the positive and negative cables. The tender seemed to maintain a full charge all winter.

AZ:
The battery tender brand makes a model with two separate 12 volt chargers in a single housing. I used one with my deuce that was stored all winter. The truck started right up this spring. I unhooked the battery cables and the dog bone before connecting the chargers. It only took a couple...
