You can buy a one wire delco alternator. They are easy to hook up just one wire to the battery. I have seen them on ebay or you can google "24 volt delco alternator" Very easy and much better than a generator.

here is the pic.

We had this amazing truck parked at my work today. It is a USMC M23 MTVR. This truck is awesome. Its massive. The bottom of the bed is about even with my eyes. Here are some specs. 729 cubic inch 425 hp turbocharged Cat 6 cyl. 1550 lb-ft of torque at 1200 rpm. 7 speed auto trans All 3 axles...

2centsWhenever you do something out of the norm, know the laws better than your neighbors. I personnally think its not good to butt heads over our MVs. You get people to start griping to city officials then they start passing more laws/restrictions on our hobby. Before long the hobby goes away...

Thanks for the info. I'm always greatful for any advice, Ted

First of all welcome . Second this is not a hobby, its an addiction. You dont get into it it invades you. Honestly you will love it and the CUCvs are great vehicles. You can find a lot of parts in the classifieds here, and at the advertisers here. Ebay is a good place also. Alot of your...

This line is guarenteed to work. " Look at what I bought YOU for Christmas honey." She will love you for it.

I am also adding my sons weekly video update. It also shows the 46" tires on ron's truck

Had a fun week. Ron Mounted 46" tires on the haulin deuce. This made a huge difference in handling, steering and top speed. It is so much easier to steer and will run 65 mph at 2300 rpms. ( It tops out at 72 mph but I dont recommend this, but if you need to pass someone you can. ) We took it out...

There is a spray in liner called Lizard Skin that works as a sound deadener and insulation. Alot of custom car builders use it. Very good stuff. Probably right up your alley. I also like your caddy seats. I say do with the truck whatever makes you happy. To me these trucks are like a blank...

That came out really nice.

I have had old muscle cars that are harder to find parts for and they broke down much more often. If you really break a deuce down to nuts and bolts you really cant find a much simpler and overbuilt vehicle. Hopefully your friend will tell more people this too. That way there will be more deuces...

I have talked to the people at red barn customs. They have nice stuff and they were real nice to talk with. Very informative.

My son is doing a video log of our resto-bob. This is the newest edition. There are a couple earlier updates I will add soon. Just to clarify. We took the bolts off because we ran out of oxygen for the torches.

Awesome truck. The tires look great on it.

I would love to find one of these and drop a big caddy 500 engine in it.

Welcome from Ohio. Good luck with your CUCV. There are lots of knowledgeable people on here.

Parking a deuce in a subdivision with a HOA will probably go over like a turd in a punch bowl. I think your alternate plan of keeping it at your moms is best. You will never win against HOA nazis. You could also bring it to Ohio and store it in my back yard. I will even drive it around for...

Those are great pics littlebob. Ron, You know as soon as we sell a few bobbed units, a 5 ton wrecker is what we will have. I kinda get a chubby just thinking about it.
