Thank you David.

Hope you get it fixed Chris.

There is also a need for the "beating a dead ox" emoticon.

A dead smiley?

I hate it when that happens....

RE: unflipped hubs No offense, but in the past whenever I saw a dually with only the outsides mounted, I would laugh to myself and think: ..... "Poorman's duals".. Why not, if you arent carrying alot of weight.It would be the same as a single axle truck, and they carry alot of weight. And...

As some of you know, I have been repainting the 211. On the chassis and attached parts, it was painted glossy black. This black paint was covered with couple different coats of O.D. The green paint is scaling off and the black is in good solid condition. The axles are O.D. I was under the...

Theres getting to be a nice accumulation of dumpers in this group of military truckers. Those early GMC's are easy to work on and they are good ole engines. Mine had a miss in it and I put new plugs, points and condenser in it and found one plug that had a broken electrode in it. Runs good now...

Best wishes to all those going to Aberdeen. We will be a little late

Man is that ugly or what? The restored one looks better with the body on the back. On a M135 chassis possibly?

Mine was originally AirForce blue. Thats what its going to be restored as. The five ton dump, that is. Olive drab on the '52 Xm211.I never realized there were so many army greens! Then through in the different sheens, and also all the camo colors, yes we need help.

:D I picked up the paint today and left work early and gave it another shot. This time was flat Olive Drab. Didnt cover as well as the last coat but it is half done and the rest is on order. This is the color I was intending on using. :roll:
