Although not a deuce, it appears to be a uniquely modified ex-military truck!
I found this pic on the net.

I remember a rancher in southern Idaho did the same thing with a deuce. They rolled it and destroyed the cab so they made a Chevy pickup cab fit. It was kind of scary.

what the heck is that.wow weird. that isnt your truck is it. why would someone do that. for those tires just the truck alone maxes out the tire weight cap.

Is it just me or does it look like they swapped that axel for a dana 60.... The bolt pattern and hubs don't look right.

Maybe real truck tires just cost too much.

I won't get religious here...but it HAS GOT to be a sin to do that to a deuce!!!!

The other truck is not far behind that...but if you hid it out on a farm and not many folks saw it you would probably be forgiven.:-D

Or Not!!!

I think it's a good reincarnation for a rotted out 5 ton. Rotted out military trucks can be found for $1000 and even fairly late model truck cabs off a wreaker are cheap. Could build a good runner, comfortable 5 ton crew cab for $2k
