Deuce in the Buff-must be 18 and older to see

Finally got to cleaning up my Duece. She came to me in desert tan and appears to be an Iowa national Guard truck. I have found being buff is tougher than camo. Blasted all the surface rust spots and treated to POR15 to make sure she does not get new pimples. Used an attachment for pressure washer that feeds sandblast sand through the tip-worked perfect for frame and rails. Used marine clean on the dash-it turned the paint to a sort of grayish blue color. Was a very thing coat that came off easily with a bit of soda blast. This truck runs sweet-starts at the hint of starter. She is now a match to her big buffed up brother.

What kind of tire combination are you running on that deuce? The fronts look wide, even for 1100s.

Those are A3 tires and wheels-temporary. Had a flat on the NDT's. Just using the temp combo for moving around the yard. New tire on the way!

Hey Thanks! Even a novice like myself should have been able to figure that out. Too much five ton time...
