    WHAT?!? $756.32 Won EVERYTHING! (M35A2)

    Been watching your story with great interest. My M-35 purchase was kind of like yours---fire dept a couple of towns away buys a "new" A3 to upgrade from the old M35.They swap beds and sold the A3 bed with the old truck.The fiberglas troop seats/racks, bows and cargo cover were in the back when I...

    The Camper Apocalyptic?

    We have always admired that truck.I like the carrier on the front for the dirt bike .I could use a photo tutorial on how yours is built--I may build one for my truck. Also wonder if anyone on here has attempted a carrier on the rear of a Deuce for a 4-wheeler ATV. Park--camp in the back of...

    Half Track?

    Depends---if it "ran when parked" it's probly worth several gadillion bucks at least? Kidding aside it looks mostly complete but would take a LOT to make something out of it.As stated above --weigh it and start with scrap price on the hoof. Hopefully someone will get it --NOT the torch!

    Maybe the poor guys on here that end up with GL trucks missing the info could just call it a Dusenhoff down at the local DMV.;-)

    USMC Deuce Year Manufactured?

    Auntie M escaped the conversion---still a 331 gasser.A double edged sword--wanted(still) a multifuel so I could play with alternate fuels but all original untouched has an undeniable cool factor too.

    USMC Deuce Year Manufactured?

    HHMMM! Small world!.My 1957 Utica-Bend Gasser has M42461 Stamped on the left side of the frame and same on the data plate.We are only about a hunnert off!!I never sanded it down to find the numbers on the hood when I painted it,but they and the star are there so I assume this is Army.I also have...

    K-43 phone maint./poll setter

    Welcome to the site from Salmon River Country! Thanks for posting and thanks for saving that old gal! As stated above that is one RARE configuration of the 506.Even in the event you can't find all the "loose" goodies at least the truck won't be turned into worthless adjustable wrenches made in...

    surplus helicopters?

    It came up for sale in North Texas in 2008. I could have got it home with the truck/trailer that I have but it would have been marginal to say the least.Just to many things going on here at the time to justify the purchase plus it would have taken up alot of time I didn't really have.I did some...

    surplus helicopters?

    Yeah,I don't understand what I did that the thumbnails won't click.:sad: Oh, yeah she was going to need a LOT of work but the potential was there-at least the paper work was there so as to be able to register and fly.But it was 1800miles away and my shop was 1 foot too short to get it inside so...

    surplus helicopters?

    Me and the boy(unbeknownst to him ) came within a twitch of buying an HH34J Choctaw.Had all the paper and the Data plates etc.Had the radial engine(not converted to the twin turbine)had enough hours left on 99% of components to make it flyable for not to much more money.Could have easily got it...

    Deuce at the Prom

Showed kids headed for a dance all decked out in formal wear.Cool idea for a company--I'll bet they do well with it.I...
