Welcome to the addiction! You might want to also fill in your city under location since NC is a big state. Care to share more info on this deal of a lifetime you mentioned.

Heading out Sat 6-7 in an empty 3/4 ton truck to SE MO, little town called Puxico MO. Can haul cargo or trailer anywhere close to that route. From there to Huntingdon TN on 6-9, and then back to Franklin NC flat towing a M1009, can haul cargo only. Anyone need anything hauled along that route...

Welcome and remember... you cant have just one!

Very nice![thumbzup] Now you just need to package up all the various fittings and offer them as a kit in the classifieds.

That must have been a sight to see, especially through stop and go traffic!

Interesting idea... could be a pain after a filter change though. Or a cold winter morning. But then again think of the exercise you would get winding that thing back up... over and over and over... Keep us posted with pricing.

Just my opinion here but if I spent $30k on a truck, especially from a dealer, I would at least expect it to make it up my driveway. I say send it back if, and only if, you will get a full refund. After you spent the night first checking the simple things with your flashlight of course! Good...

Im also 6'3 and have no problems driving an A2. Yea its a tight at first but you get used to it. My first time driving one was when I picked up my very first several years back, and then drove it home 400 miles. Stock bench (no spring) with no turbo... Was a long long trip, but ever since I have...

The filter bases on CUCVs are notorious for leaking. Very good upgrade is to convert to spin on filter, heres a post covering the procedure. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?36435-My-CUCV-spin-on-fuel-filter-mod Oh and if you havnt already done it you need to do the "doghead starter...

Yea that's all I could come up with based on the 1101s dimensions. Could have swore I read on here about someone hauling 3 on a 16 footer, I just couldn't figure out how. May be ahead to leave the 16' trailer home and just flip one of the 1101s upside down on top of another and strap it down...

Im looking to find out how many M1101s can be safely hauled on a 16' trailer. Also a picture showing how they were loaded would be much appreciated.

How many did you end up fitting on your 16' trailer? Got a pic of it loaded?

I have also brought a couple of 6tl's back to life with a Batteryminder. It's a charger, maintainer, and desulfator all in one. If you have power I definitely recommend using one. If no power the newer solargizers with the large solar panel would be my 2nd choice.

After seeing your work first hand I cant wait to see what you do to this one! Any luck tracking down your old deuce?

Great looking truck! Glad the recovery was uneventful. You gonna bob it? I see the top already matches the one on your deuce!

What did you buy, and where are the pictures?:driver:

What about the m35a3 wheels, would they still rub with 395s or do they have more offset than a2 wheels?

After reading all your progress reports I cant wait to see a video of it driving.:drool: Way to go!:beer:

Looking like it will be Sat before I can get there now, unfortunately there and back in one day. Also wont be able to bring a truck so if anyone has any extra room my son would love to ride along on a trail run if not to much trouble. Anyone needs anything hauled down from Western NC let me...
