Just to let you know, if you want something authentic, very few gun trucks were made out of deuces, mostly due to the fact that once the armor and guns were put on the back, the cargo capacity was pretty well used up. Many problems with worn-out driveline components due to the weight, so most...

I need a few parts to complete a deuce on this end, get it all functional. I have the air horn, the solenoid body, but I need the plunger inside the solenoid, the spring that goes to that, and the fittings needed to attach the solenoid to the air line and the air horn itself. Anyone have a...

Wow, looks like M543 wreckers are half off. Nice load of firewood you have there!

RE: Finally - More M139 restoration pic Pretty! Man, this is going to be the best looking M139 restoration I have ever seen. Actually, it will probably be the ONLY M139 restoration I have ever seen. Sorry, most bridge trucks get retired from the Army to a life of being beat to death on some...

Nothing says Merry Christmas better than looking in the rearview mirror and seeing a 13,000-lb steel wreath-hanger bearing down on your a$$ !

Wow, great looking transformation so far! Might be a good idea also to add a few items like a genset, air compressor (big one), or a welder on that trailer as well. When you paint it in the Spring, PLEASE take some pics of the finished product....

I'll post these pics, but I have a feeling Daryl and Angelo won't be selling me parts anymore....

What? Is that how utility trailer owners in Venezuela hide their small trailers from satellite photos? Underneath military dump bodies?

Holy thread revisitor, Batman! The pics are gone probably cause they were posted over 2.5 years ago, and have since been removed from the server.

Re: RE: odd turn signal guards Ha ha, nothing yet - just screening the deuces coming up the end of this month. Need to get 2 or 3 more trucks.

RE: odd turn signal guards I saw a truck at Chambersburg a couple days ago that had the same ones, and the same bridge plate placement. I believe those light guards are meant for some piece of armor, but not sure.

I always find it interesting that the CUCVs go for more than the deuces. I guess the more compact size has a lot to do with it.

I know it's a haul, but Idaho Motor Pool always has a few M29s for sale: http://www.idahomotorpool.com/

I like that heater setup - have to get one of those for cold weather recoveries on my end....

Hope you packed out the sofa. Leave nothing but tire tracks, take nothing but pictures. I hate to say it, but we as responsible offroaders need to actively pick up other people's trash when we go offroading, in order to put us in a good light, clean up the environment, and ensure that...

RE: Re: RE: Spotted these yesterday... Very few of those have been surplussed out, and those that have were in crappy condition. (some would argue that they were in crappy condition when they were made) Were these military guys getting trees?

Wow, that's a nice 5-ton! Bet you can fit a lot of cons in the bed!

That's a shame, Tom was one of the few guys at Coleman's I actually liked dealing with. His knowledge of everything mechanical there impressed me, and he actually cared about the stuff that was back in the weeds, when Shawn and everyone else was only caring about scrapping it all. He wasn't...

Nice looking project - complete and very restoration. I see there isn't much heavy rust either. First step, though, is to take that silly winter top off! :) I'd go with the USMC Green as well, I believe it's 34052. Most M37s were in 24087, like all other MVs from the 1950s and 1960s, but...

Mike Murphy has them, I believe: www.murphyjunk.bizland.com
