    1952 Model Deuce

    Have an acquaintance here in El Paso who wants to sell the 1952 vintage Deuce pictured here. He wants $2,000.00 for it and yes, I told him that's way too high, but he's negotiable. He says it ran 2 years ago, it has an automatic tranny. Has surface rust, but the desert here has been fairly...

    Deuce Security

    I like the lock the passenger door, open the driver windshield thing, and pull the handle on the driver side thing, but it's very minimal.

    So you want to go faster?

    At Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, they had turbine powered generators. I really gave consideration to just gutting out the turbines and bolting them to the bed of my Deuce for a little afterburner affect. OOrah

    Deuce Battery Options?

    I purchased Wal Mart batteries for mine; just under the biggest they had; If I recall, they had approx 775 CCA (cold cranking amps). Bear in mind that the batteries that come in your deuce are a perfect square. No such thing at Wal Mart, with the cca you need. I was out the door at Wal Mart...

    Oil Filter confusion

    O.K.--I've read the posts I could find on oil filters. Trying to change the oil now on my M35A2. There are 2 oil filters. Do they BOTH use the NAPA #1133, or are they different filters, a primary and finer secondary?
