    Old mixed parts M35 Gasser VIN ID ?, please.

    Traces of "TP50" in yellow on the driver fender, more indication of a USMC truck. I did a poor job of trying to save the numbers. Need to try some different methods (stripper and/or finer sandpapper) and be more careful.

    How to remove mud from between the duals.

    Thanks. I gotta get in there and check brakes, etc. yet before I get it on the road. So much work to do...being stuck working all day kills me. I just wanna work on my deuce!

    Removing civvy paint and retaining military numbers/markings?

    Hi all. Have some threads in the deuce section, but thought a specific one for this question might be a good idea. I have what I'm pretty sure is a USMC M35A1 and want to get 2 or 3 layers of civvy paint off of it and see what the USMC numbers and markings might have been, maybe even retain...

    lds wastegate turbo on an M35

    Thought I might try to freshen this one up and also subscribe. I have a deuce with a LDS-465-1A and the 4LE-354. First deuce, so I have nothing to reference from, but she feels a bit weak to me. Like lots of low RPM grunt from sheer cubes, but not much hp with throttle. I'm coming from driving a...

    V17a/mtq

    Gin pole is actually on the truck behind it. I should have more pics somewhere... The truck next to it has a huge compressor and engine to drive it on the back.

    Old mixed parts M35 Gasser VIN ID ?, please.

    I was looking at Barrman's beautiful USMC truck and it occurred to me that if I find yellow numbers and letters all over my tank, toolboxes, and fenders...can't wait to get some paint stripped. I smashed my index finger pretty bad in the door of my truck at lunch today, gonna be awful hard to...

    Unusual LDS 465 tag

    Yes, I'm hoping if someone has the same tag, we can figure out what the missing info was. I will email the mv tag guys.

    Got a Deuce! '62 M35A1

    No problem. We build all types of driveshafts. I was thinking an Ag pto shaft, low speed only, disconnect when not in use. Back to our regularly scheduled programming...I'll post a thread bout the propelled trailer when I get a round tuit.

    Unusual LDS 465 tag

    I think so. How bout the Xs? Need a tag with same format to see what they refer to, rods, mains, etc. Just googled up the MV data plates site.

    Unusual LDS 465 tag

    Hello 5 tonners. My little deuce coupe has a 5 ton engine in it. Wondered if y'all had seen one like it or could help me decipher what it un-readable. Thank you!

    Old mixed parts M35 Gasser VIN ID ?, please.

    I think it's an early A1, which would explain the transitional parts. I bet it got out of the service early and remained A1 before A2s came along. The serial numbers go up through the years, and mine is between two '62s. That pretty much nails the year for me. Branch of service may be harder to...

    Got a Deuce! '62 M35A1

    I was gonna order some parts for when I get back to the deuce. NOS water pump...are the seals rubber or ceramic/mechanical? If rubber and NOS, do the seals get dried out from sitting and fail? Thanks!

    Got a Deuce! '62 M35A1

    Got bat guts on my hand when I jumped out and leaned on that rock. One was under the little rocks on the big rock, got squished. That truck was/is a bad mamma-jamma. Locking diffs, slinky suspension, hotrodded a bit, big winch, gin poles. Had lots of fun in it. Been down a couple years waiting...

    Old mixed parts M35 Gasser VIN ID ?, please.

    Sorry, I should have put more explanation with the the pics. Half the reason I'm doing it is for the next guy. The undercoating being Marine was just a rumor, what one guy had seen. The original hot rivets instead of bolts on the engine mounts are supposed to indicate the truck was originally a...
