    Advice on Deuce purchase.

    Good morning from a FNG. I've been constantly bugged for the last 2 months since looking at a local Deuce. I think I need to buy it but would like some advice. Here's the basics. It's a 1985 M35A2C WO/W. 14000 miles, 650 hours. New soft top, heater, LDT465-1C engine. It was an Air Force truck...
