    General EUC Question

    Jimm1009, my event was 4991, I won a Deuce on Feb. 4. EUC was sent to BC on March 10, been waiting since. I am somewhere around 80 business days from that point. It's too depressing to keep counting. LC

    EUC at 63 days!

    I am now on Day 72. None of my emails to GL have been answered, nothing in the mail, no change in status on the website. In the meantime, they are holding my nearly $2500, while I have a handful of air to show for it. LC

    How long at Battle Creek?

    Tomorrow (Monday, June 14) will be 68 days for me. I have not received any notification whatsoever even though I have sent several emails to GL over the past two months. LC

    M88's headed Home for Rebuild

    Yes, it figures. I only said that because I remember everything being OD there when I was young. When I was a kid, our family and some good friends went to Ft. Polk once for Armed Forces Day, as they were having an open house. This was around 1970 or 71, at the height of the Vietnam War...

    M88's headed Home for Rebuild

    I saw a vehicle of this type (or very similar ) this week when I went to Ft. Polk to pick up some wheels and tires for Maddawg308. Also passed by a marshalling area where a unit was apparently getting ready for an exercise. Saw M1's, M109's, MRAP's, Bradley's, Humvees, FMTV's, and even M113's...

    Ft. Polk GL / DRMO

    I just have to say that I was treated very nicely today by GL at Fort Polk, particulary by Linda, who was driving the forklift. Due to my own confusion (notice that I did not say I got lost! LOL) I arrived at the DRMO office on Magazine Road right at 11:30, which is officially lunch time. I...

    New entry security at Ft Polk

    NDT, I think they may have changed things up again. I went to Polk today to pick up some tires and rims for maddawg308 and drove up to the commercial gate off Hwy 28 ( I think this is the gate that is actually on either Hwy 468 or Hwy 184). I was told I needed to go to the North Fort entrance...

    EUC Approval Delays

    I sent them that request about 2-3 weeks ago, hopefully the poster above is correct and they will not cancel. LongueCarabine

    EUC Approval Delays

    Day 62 for me on my Deuce from Event 4991. I won the auction on Feb 4, immediately sent in EUC forms, notified in early March to make corrections, paperwork sent in to BC on March 9 by GL. I feel like a mushroom right now. LongueCarabine

    Sale 4991- EUCs stuck at GL?

    Went to Beauregard on Tuesday, June 1. No parts missing, everything looks the same. The Sergeant there was very helpful, told me that once I get my paid invoice, they will provide a Humvee with slave cable to assist in cranking up the Deuce. So, now, all I have to do is pray my sale doesn't...

    How long at Battle Creek?

    Event 4991; Won the auction on Feb. 4, awarded Feb. 5. Sent paperwork in, got back 3 weeks later for corrections, sent to BC on March 10. 62 working days from that date and I have not yet heard anything. LongueCarabine

    Sale 4991- EUCs stuck at GL?

    I don't blame you for that. The thing is, I got a pretty good deal on this one, and would like to keep it if nothing else goes missing. The lady said she was going to check with the folks at Beauregard and get back to me, but it sure did not sound promising. LC

    Sale 4991- EUCs stuck at GL?

    Thanks, NDT, I appreciate the helpful reply. I knew that they handle both locations, I've bought a few things from Ft. Polk before, just nothing that required an EUC. Not sure who I talked to, she didn't give a name. I just didn't think it would be a big deal. I am not going to just look...

    Sale 4991- EUCs stuck at GL?

    Well, I have called GL Monday and Tuesday of this week and finally got a call back today. The woman at Beauregard was not very helpful, wanting to know why I want to go and inspect the property. I told her that I would like to do so since it has been 3.5 months since I won the auction. Still...

    2nd annual Louisiana SS rally

    Thanks for the responses, everyone. I will see if I can make it, depends on my job situation. LC

    Sale 4991- EUCs stuck at GL?

    Well, according to the calendar, my info has been at Battle Creek for 48 business days (it was sent to BC on March 9), so I guess I still have some time before I need to worry. I think I will make an appointment to take a look at the truck next week, though. I hope no one has appropriated...

    2nd annual Louisiana SS rally

    Boy this sounds like it could be a fun time. Unfortunately, the paperwork for my Deuce has not cleared Battle Creek yet, and I doubt I will have it ready by Memorial Day weekend. Is there going to be some kind of get together in the fall? LC

    This weeks project: Vinyl covers

    Neat. Who sells cover for these babies? My Deuce (if it ever gets in from GL) did not come with a cover, but it has the bows, so I am gonna need to get one. And which are better, canvas or vinyl? TIA, LC

    Which port is which - PS PUMP

    That is probably the one mod I will really want to do when I get my Deuce in. I'm a fairly strong person, but from what I hear, steering the Deuce can be quite a workout. Can you tell me what parts are needed to convert to PS? How common / easy to find are these parts? TIA, LC
