Meet up with Pete (whatadeuce) at one of our favorite establishments in Loxahatchee and there he was topless. Not Pete but his deuce was. Enjoying this beautiful south Florida weather. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
Friday we went to do a recovery (civiy truck) and this is what we came home to. Apparentlyly a storm came through and knocked down two trees. Ouch what they did to the Chevy C60 TT. Got the M816 out and lifted trees off the two trucks and a trailer. Only damage was to the Chevy C60 TT.
Thanks to MR Kenny ( Recovery4x4) for loading and hauling and storing my M35 cab from the GA rally to south Florida. Got picked up today and Kenny did all the loading. Thanks again Mr Kenny.
Used the M816 yesterday to lift cover off deuce engine can.
Did a couple up and downs with the hoist and no problems.
When I went to lower cover back on the can hoist would not go down.
Tried up and it still works. The cable drum does not turn and sounds
like hydraulic pump bogs down. Boom...
In a recent addition to the motor pool (CUCV) I found this fuel pumped out of the bleeder valve. It is red in color. Is this diesel fuel? Is it safe for a CUCV?
Good recovery stories are great. Thanks to Tom from Z-Quick Trucking for coming through. Got really close to the we take it back date. 450 mile transport with no problems.
