Dead link to Deuce VIN decoding sticky

[migz]

There was a link to a great article on VIN numbers for a Deuce that is in the “Decoding the Deuce” sticky. The link now points to military trader online. Are there any copies of the article on the SS site? Does anyone know if the author of the article can be contacted to get a copy of the article? Any help would be appreciated.

The last two posts in the sticky explain it.
They took the back-issues from the net, put them on CD and sell it.

Would be interested in the decoding data, too.

Greetings! I am the author of said article (and copyright owner as well). I'll contact the publisher and get the scoop. Will report back in a couple days.

As will I. I had read it a while back, but was getting ready to fill out my SF-97 paperwork, and came back to read it again, and it was gone!. haha. Thanks David!

I too, would like to read the decode formula. I am just getting into the M35, and just purchased one. I want to learn everything I can to better my understanding of this platform.

I don't know what the laws are but that article is copywrited. I think I'd get permission from David Doyle before I started sending it out.

The article came out in Military Vehicles Magizine. If you can find a copy is one way to get it. I don't remember what issue it was but I can look it up if anyone is interested.

I am working on this - its not as simple as one would think. I own the copyright to the material in the article - the image of the article itself (page layout, etc.) is the magazine's copyright.

This is made a bit more complicated because some of the data is also going into a book I am working on for another publisher. So there are several folks involved in this. It got made a bit more complicated when someone else took it upon themselves to repost it on the internet without permission.

I'm on the road this week, but am working on this as diligently as I can. In the meantime, if anyone has a question about their specific truck's mfr or date, feel free to PM me.

Best wishes,
David

What are you trying to decode? Year? Mfg?

Try the 2009 vin info thread. Give me time to answer what's on there. I've got some issues right now and want to be precise.
