Maybe it should be corrected to 19-22nd (Thursday to Sunday)?

Looks pretty good, better than I thought it would. But man, better shoot that red jerry can soon! If I see it red at the Virginia Rally, I'm gonna spray bomb it OD myself!

I like the color of the rest of the truck for the hardtop, just my two cents. But tan wouldn't be too bad. Black would be cool as well....

Cool beans! I'll add your name to the list of interested folks. Thanks, hope to see you there!

Very cool, Craig! Glad to see you're having fun with the truck!

The M51/52/54 series of trucks were made from the early 1950s to the late 1960s or so. They have since been replaced with the M800 series, the M900 series, and the now the FMTV series. They are long obsolete, in the DoD's eyes, and have been replaced several times over, the ones that are...

RE: More Jealous Now Dave, if I told you once, I told you a thousand times. Stop making us look bad. Great looking paint job!

I got two of them in early December, I believe. They are still doing them, but I believe they have a backlog and are running at 30 business days per application....

Guess they figured that if they build a bridge, it should hold a jeep without any problems.

Re: Log Splitter behind a DEUCE!! A set of jackstands could fix that. ;)

The rear PTO on the deuce (or rather the extra driveshaft attachment on the rear of the back axle) makes for a tempting thought about using it as a power source for farm implements. Not sure if anyone has ever done this. Anyone have any pics of using the deuce for farm use, by powering any of...

Doc, welcome to Steel Soldiers! The parts are exactly the same, only the bed has changed. Looks like it's solid and will be a great truck for you. Paint it OD and you're in business!

For a running operating wrecker, that's fair, regardless of the condition of the interior, etc. If I was in the market for a wrecker, it would be in my driveway.

I am picking a similar one up from n3uka in MD this month - it's an XM1061E1, ex-laundry trailer with all the stuff taken off. Gonna use it for hauling the jeep back and forth to rallies behind the deuce.

Some variant of the M1061 5-ton trailer? Do you have any close up pics of the data plates?

Saw the listing on Craigslist. Here's the info: "Also have a 1951 Military GMC Duce, 16 spd.automatic trans,gas in-line six. asking $700.00 Call Larry 703-327-4258

Amen, Mike. We all got our vices, and will do anything to fund them! Cabell, will probably be coming down Wed. evening to Doswell, VA, staying overnight in a hotel there, in order to convoy up on Thursday morning with the group.

RE: VA Rally Wasn't sure about that yet. The AO will be a little spread out, but it might make sense to have a base camping area, rather than a different spot both nights. However, that will probably require someone at all times to stay back at the campsite to make sure noone screws with the...

Those tires look German to me - I have seen the same tread pattern on original WWII German equipment, and on Unimogs as well....
