:ditto: I'd also be interested in knowing how to research the military history of my XM211. Any Tips?? -Bear-

Well I guess 17 IS the new HIGH WATERMARK for # of Dueces purchased at a single event!! [thumbzup] ANYONE care to try and beat this?!?! You'll probably need DEEP pockets in years to come... I'm looking forward to seeing what you acquired & what you want for them... My collection is...

Who did your rebuild? Do they still do rebuilds?? (For future reference...) "Cheers!" -Bear-

Good discussion on auto trans fluids & cooling... http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/37192-should-i-use-oe10-oil-atf-hydraulic.html

OK, I KNOW THIS IS GETTING OFF TOPIC, BUT... I have 400+ Pne Trees on my property & I just had them treated with ONYX to prevent Pine Bark Beetles. My tree guy dilutes the ONYX with Diesel Fuel and sprays the lower 10-14feet of each tree trunk. The Diesel helps the insecticide to better...

GREAT ADVISE GUYS!! I recently acquired a nice '52 XM211 in good running condition & I have similar desires to get fresh fluids in everything (as I never trust the judgement of prior owners, especially when it comes to fluids...). I've heard SO MANY Warnings about these auto transmissions...

WAAAY Back when I lived in L.A. I saw an H1 Hummer with Spinner Wheels, low profile tires, neon underneath, boom boom stereo, chrome EVERYWHERE, PINK velour interior, PURPLE exterior, mirrored windows, AND Hydraulics!! It WAS Unique, but all I could think was "WHAT A WASTE!" I've never...

Chrome Stack on a Deuce?!? Are you gonna put "Spinner Wheels" on it too? Maybe some Neon Lights underneath, and a stereo with Booming Base??? (...just seems W R O N G to me......)

Now you know why it says "Fire Call 911" on the side! Nice looking M715! Be sure to check out M715Zone.com & get your S/N added to the registry! "Cheers!" :beer: -Bear-

Our TAX DOLLARS at work!! Makes one wonder how we ever got so in debt...... :soapbox: -Bear-

Not to nit-pick, but haven't the odds of issues just increased 17X?? :grin: ONE GOOD THING is that you'd have PLENTY of spare parts close at hand to choose from!! (Just bring along tools and a tow-bar for the one truck that becomes the parts donor!!) Maybe I'm crazy, but it sounds like a...

Not sure who should be SHOT here... ...the UPS handlers for banging up the door so badly, OR the seller for failing to pack the door & glass properly?? I tend to think more blame lies with the seller, BUT the UPS receiving station shouldn't have accepted an inadequately packaged item...

Cool! Please PM or Email me when you figure out prices & such. There's a chance I might be up in the Detroit area in the coming month or 2 (for work). IF this coincides with your DEUCE CONVOY I'd be happy to help! -Bear- PS: You'll just HAVE TO get a picture of them all lined up on the road...

So... You selling any?? (or are you just stockpiling for your future plans to start your own army?) I've been lookin' for a good running, clean, complete, low rust Deuce at a fairly reasonable price. (Keep in mind that I'd need to drive or haul it ALL THE WAY to GA!!) -Bear-

Jim, Sorry to hear that you are selling your M211.... BUT I used to live in MI & have some friends up there who might be interested. Can you post some pictures? Any rust-thru anywhere? Any mechanical issues? "Cheers!" -Bear-

CONGRATS!! [thumbzup] Please post pictures when you can!! "Cheers!" :beer: -Bear-

GOOD FOR YOU! [thumbzup] Welcome to the M715 club! Be sure to check out the M715Zone.com website for great info and a great bunch of owners! M715 Zone - Powered by vBulletin Lots of them out there with the original straight-6, many owners swap in a V8. Mine came with a Ford straight-6...

As they say, "BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER!" Peronally while I like the M35s (& might get one some day) I prefer the lines of the older trucks. Some people may see something as being old & ugly, while others will prefer to see it as mature, rugged, experienced, or even attractive...

NO FEAR Jim! IF I were to "cobble" something together it would only be temporary until I could get the correct parts for it! Right now my concern is to get SOMETHING on that carb (and air compressor) to act as a filter before some big dragonfly gets sucked in! I'm still trying to decide if I'm...

HMMMMMmmmmmmm..... Makes me wonder if mine might actually be made/delivered in a later year? It is titled as a '52, but I suppose that doesn't mean anything.........
