The best argument by far I believe is pointing out the multifuel burning abilities of diesel-powered MVs. I think you could make the argument that a ban would certainly decrese Wisconson's ability to dispose of waste motor oil and waste vegetable oil in a most expedient fashoin. In fact, I feel...

I have a line on a plywood sided camper locally. We'll see! A friend of mine drove The Cheetahmobile (M109) home for me today. He said the only probem he noticed was the exhaust elbow is shot and letting exhaust into the cab via the passenger side ventilator. Time to get started on the light...

That's kewl n2ojunkie! Got any "in-progress" pictures? I'll have to call around to the junk yards today and post an ad in the Times.

I won't be in any shape to drive. Right elbow surgery on 28 August to remove arthritic tissue and bone spurs. Hurts like the dickens to turn the steering wheel to the left on my deuce and am losing strength in that lower arm. Good excuse to buy that air assist steering kit though :-D I thought...

Saw a wonderful sight on the way to the Dr office today. A Deuce in really nice condition traveling in the opposite direction loaded to the top with boxes. I can see a time coming soon when Deuce and a half traffic will be a regular sight around Huntsville. I gave him/ her a big wave as they...

While laid up I've been busy drawing interior layouts and bouncing ideas off Margaret (wife). We sure would like to get this up and running in time for the GA rally in October!:-D

Does anyone know where old pop-up (or other type) campers go to die? I'd like to find a used one. The only criteria is that the air conditioning/ heating unit still works and has other salvageable items like water and electric hook-up feedthroughs, maybe a small fridge, sink, potty chair? I want...

No "C" on the M36A2. See? I LEARNED sumpin today!

The tool list: 3-inch 8 point wheel bearing locknut socket Budd lug socket Wheel lug wrench and extender bar 3/4 inch drive socket set with breaker bar 4-foot cheater pipe Various hammers up to a sledge Propane Torch 4 six ton jack stands Heavy-duty hydraulic bottle jack (at least 10 ton...

Yes, the OD Syndrome has it's hooks in me. Snagged an M35A2 with winch and soft top AND an M36A2C Dropside. Man that's a long bed on that baby. Good thing I picked up TWO 35 gal fuel tanks at the last auction! Now all I have to do is heal up from hernia surgery and get going on my camper...

Welcome Dogkiller. Just curious... why "dogkiller"?

So what tools do y'all consider "can't do without" when working on the Deuce? I have a 3K engine hoist, engine stand, a solid Rock Maple work bench, drill press, band saw, parts washer, and a good many hand tools. I feel I need to get a set of 3/4-inch drive ratchet/ sockets, an impact wrench...

You want to hear something funny? I used to own various British sports cars and never minded working on them. After I got rid of them and had more modern cars, I got to where I couldn't stand to work on the frickin' things. Now that I have the Deuce, I'm back not minding it so much and actually...

Ditto BugEyeBear- Will you sell any? I'd like an M35A2C with winch and soft top.

I'm late here (3+ years). Any way to still get an in-tank pump?

Sounds good to me! I think I'd have to do a manual switching between fuel tanks. Kind of like switching tanks in a Cessna. Maybe locate the 3-way valve in the cab? Also need to figure a way to heat the WVO in tank #2. It gets chilly in North Alabama in the winter. I wonder if it would be better...

I have a 35 gallon tank I'm planning on adding to the M109A2. I have a couple of choices for electric fuel pumps- 24VDC, negative ground, either 30 or 32 GPM, anti-siphoning valve optional. Opinions welcome! :-D Also opinions needed about where to locate the new tank. I was thinking about...

That's an interesting idea- pull up next to the wall, mask off everything you didn't want painted, and let them "tag" away. Another pop culture icon born!

Just as long as it didn't get the cowl and firewall top you'll be fine. Even if it got those, it's still far from a loss. Even dented it's a great lookin' truck!

Hey Mike- Thanlks for the heads up. Actually it's just not clamped down. The clamps are there dangling by the headlights. Texas Redneck- That's a nice truck! Did you get to start it up and put it in gear? If so, did the air pressure come up OK? BTW, if being a redneck means you love The...
