    Looking at a Deuce, Has Some Issues

    In the service, interesting things did happen to individual trucks. As an example, a few members have/had Deuces with LDS engines straight from the military. That was not an "official" swap, suggested or approved anywhere in the TM series manuals! Someone, somewhere, wanted and got the fastest...

    Looking at a Deuce, Has Some Issues

    These days 2500 for a running, driving and kinda stopping Deuce is very very reasonable. Clearly, you are buying a project and can budget approximately the purchase price or close to it in parts to get her truly safe and roadworthy. It's a bonus when, as you methodically check the systems over...
