Chris, If we go with the longest convoy idea we could name it the Red Ball Express in tribute to the WWII express. With the name it could be in honor of the steel soldier members we have lost. The members who the award honors can be listed by name for pick a criteria "the prior year, in...

I think the first thing to do is find out what the MVPA already awards trophies for at the convention. No need to double up on an award they already present. If they do not do a longest drive award I am for that as our award and agree that we should name it the LTC Frankenhauser award...

From his avatar we all now know that Joe is 10' tall, made of bronze and hangs out on the top of buildings. I can not criticize as my "official" photo on our company web site looks like this.

MKT, twin axle dually water buffalo and a lockable maintenance trailer. A whole host of trailers that I need. Looks like the boys from Carson are on the move. Thanks for the pictures.

I had the same thing happen to me during a thunderstorm in South Florida a couple of weeks back. I brought it to a luggage repair shop and they stitched it back together for me along with restitching the zipper on the rear window for $40 if I remember correctly. They used an adhesive tape...

If you are looking at putting a third drive axle in the 109 it looks like there may be room for the axle but the spring support structure is going to be very cramped. I can put a tape measure on mine tomorrow if you want while I am doing some work. I can measure the available space and the...

I had to restrain myself from bidding on that truck. I have a 109 without the windows on the rear doors. I was convinced that buying a truck in Missouri and driving it to Florida just to swap two rear doors with windows made sense. Welcome to the 109 club, you will like the shop van. Read...

If you are concerned about it my advice is to see if you can find the appropriate state stature. If that does not work go to your local DMV/Sherrif/Police and ask them. The other option is to talk to an attorney that is licensed in your state. May cost a couple of nickles but they will give...

Your neighbor is probably related to the POS who manages the complex in Fort Lauderdale where my nephew lives. He "blocked" my deuce in by parking his Ford Ranger right behind me so that he could vent about my parking in a complex with no visitor parking slots while we unloaded. I agree with...

I am repainting the interior of mine in desert sand. You will see the boxes come out of service with all kinds of interior colors. I have seen sea foam green, white, White upper and sea foam lower, sand, grey and even a few with the interior painted black. Go with a color that works for what...

That is a very clean and good looking shop van. I like the track pads on the bumper for an extra bit of cushion.

I need to get a good set of "normal" temperature readings on mine for both summer and winter and day versus night. I know that it makes a major difference on temperatures for me if I drive at night versus the day time during the summer. I have given in and gone for warehouse space to store my...

I do not think you will have any problems fitting the deuce in the drive way. The Ford E350 is 217" long or 237" long (extended version) and 97" wide including the mirrors. That is right in the same range as a deuce w/o winch is 264" long. I would make sure that it will fit though as some...

I think I remember that one. Bumper numbers are for 1st Bn 116th Inf from the Virginia National Guard. That battalion took it very rough on June 6, 1944. The 116th has a long history including Irag, Afghanistan, and Kosovo.

If it is an EUC item you will not see the paid in full invoice until it clears but your card will see the charge tomorrow.

Hundy, I am glad that you are on the other side of the country or I would be more broke than I am now.

New Urban Camo I am glad to see that we have one in the new SanFran urban camo scheme:-D

Ordered one of the Summit mufflers and will see how it goes with the shop van. Thanks guys for the info.

Clinto, I am looking forward to the rally. Where is the best spot to reserve for camping in the deuce? They have camping with electric and the primitive camping. Just want to see what is closest to the main gathering.

Plan on spending quite a bit more money to grab an A3 versus an A2.
