genset pickup at Jacksonville

[dirtyfingernails]

Mark (deucecoupe) and I ran over to Jacksonville this morning to retreive my genset and trailer. Fairly uneventful. However, it took us about 30 minutes to get the lunette rotated (took us 25 minutes to get the cotter pin out). Yes, we knew what we were doing--I think. Anyway, flipped the lunette and drove about 1.5 hours to my house where we off-loaded the gensets. Mark took the trailer on to his place to install the bed on his modified, bobbed deuce. I saw it on Thanksgiving--it rocks!! Very nice set up. Also, for those interested, GL person at Jax said that only scrap will be sold out of there in the near future. She said that the trucks would be shipped to Huntsville. Darn. There goes my supply line.

Wow be glad you were able to rotate the lunette at all.
How many gensets do you have now?

Did you happen to test run them yet? I am driving up to Jax tomorrow to get mine.

Steve, will Mark be using the bow on the bed when he puts it on his truck? Greengator may very well be interested in them. He's taking my M103A3 off my hands.

Kenny,
Neither of us wants the bows. I'll get with Walter. I'll take a case of beer for em!

Lav,
All the batts were drained. I gave them to Mark. He probably would give them away if you asked. Gensets are in fine condition. Each indicated an oil change within one hour on the hobbs. Also, they both only have about 700 hours each. Good luck with your pickup.

Bill,
That makes 3 each! I will be selling one.

My genset has 6160 hrs but from the photos looks very clean. Hopefully I'll be just as happy when I pick it up. Glad to hear your pickup was a success.
