    What is this? M35A3 underhood part

    "car show winner"

    I took my '52 GMC XM211 to a recent local classic car gathering (i.e. "show") here in SE Georgia. There was a wide variety of cars there, everything from better-than-new trailer-queens to rusty rat-rods. So I didn't really worry about not fitting in! Now understand that my '52 is completely...

    M35 Brakes. Warning signs ignored could have been serious

    Good Thread! Always good idea to check Deuce brake systems OFTEN for leaks. Especially since it is a single circuit system. I always look underneath my M211 at the inside of every tire/wheel before and after each drive. Call me paranoid, but I just want to always know that I will be able to...

    The Deuce and Truck Weight Stations

    Just get a black Trans Am to run ahead of you as Blocker to distract all the "bears" at the weigh stations. Then you can sail right through without any thought of stopping! (Unless, of course, you come across a "Frog" in a wedding dress at the side of the road...) :driver: "East bound & down...

    So am I nucking futz or not?

    :ditto: On my XM211 Deuce I need to start the 90-degree turn into my driveway about 10 feet sooner than I do in my "normal" car. After almost taking out the fence on two occasions I now do this turn-in at SIGNIFICANTLY slower speeds than one would consider normal. OH & No Air Assist on my...
