    A nifty tool for fuel leaks....

    Hey! It's not leaking, it is just marking its parking space. -Chuck

    Piper L4 Grasshopper

    I suppose the main issue with landing on a friendly farmer's field is you have to stay above 500 feet when crossing the neighbor's property. Unless the field is very large, it can make for interesting landings and takeoffs. And, if the neighbors get annoyed and call the FAA, you will have to...

    Help, threw rod and stuck in Rock Creek WY

    That's easy. The hard part is avoiding using it. Turning up the fuel on a MF engine is akin to a WEP position on the throttle. -Chuck

    Who says you can't pull a Deuce with a pickup truck

    A real F700 is in the same, or slightly higher tonnage class as the deuce. I haven't a clue how a F700 PU truck would be rated. -Chuck

    DLA letter

    I haven't ever heard anyone say that they were rejected. I think the rejection mechanism is to simply not give approval, and let the clock run out.... That way BC never has to justify their determination. -Chuck

    Who says you can't pull a Deuce with a pickup truck

    An F700 is a pickup truck? Yeah.... if my deuce is a pickup truck too! -Chuck

    DLA letter

    It won't come until your EUC is cleared... in my case, I got the letter a day or two before I got the paid invoice notification from GL. -Chuck

    DLA letter

    I would say yes, only because I got one, and others I know got one. The purpose of the letter is to put the fear of Uncle Sam into you to keep you from exporting your new found restricted goody. And, to remind you that they can take it back from you at any time for any reason. In any case...

    SF97 with sale issues

    I guess CT is the rare state that doesn't care about revenue... Most of the rest do. -Chuck

    DLA letter

    Uhmmm... That is what they are doing while you are waiting for your EUC to clear...a background check. -Chuck

    Buying a Deuce Blind

    Some have found that GL's pictures weren't even of the deuce they bought. If you buy blind, you are taking a pure gamble. You might get lucky and get one you can fix and drive, or you might get one with a blown engine, transmission, and broken undercarriage. That said, you can fix anything...

    Lincoln Mark VII Versus two deuces

    Those are lyrics? I thought it was just mindless profanity with something vaguely musical going on in the background. -Chuck

    Free Deuce Manuiles,

    The CD you got probably is just a collection of manuals that came from this site.... And the manuals that are on this site are mostly a collection of manuals that are hosted on LOGSA, the DOD's free manual site. Consider the CD a nice convenient place to have your manuals... one that you can...

    "New" 1969 Deuce

    Looks beautiful! Happy birthday, and enjoy the trudk. Don't worry about Boomer. He'll pee on the tires, and soon enough discover the truck is a nice shady spot to lay under. -Chuck

    Whats Allowed???????

    GL rules are that you may not do anything but load the truck onto a trailer, or tow truck. They especially don't want you driving the truck anywhere on their lot, and the rules forbid driving the truck off of the lot. The rules are often broken. -Chuck

    Brake questions

    I don't know what Kragan is, but the Silicone DOT5 that NAPA sells is the same as the MIL BFS. -Chuck

    Lincoln Mark VII Versus two deuces

    Let's just say that if I did that, my dad would have whacked my driving privileges.. It would have been several months before he would have let me drive the Lincoln again. -Chuck

    Starts & Runs

    Mine was driven onto the lot. It needed batteries, its brakes were flat, with one leaky wheel cylinder. It had one flat tire (stem broken off), and two dry rotted tires, one missing a 6 inch piece of tread. All other fluids were topped off, and it was full of diesel. We pressure bled the...

    That was a pretty sad display. I'm going to refrain from saying anything further. -Chuck

    NON-Wisconsin Registration & Use Information Wanted

    Sadly, your only option is to register it as historic military, and use it as a show queen, or move to another state.... just about any other state. -Chuck.
