It's gotta have orange hubs and green wheels. Then you can leave the desert camo and there will still be no doubt who owns it. The problem w/painting the whole truck is the canvas. It'll be hard to find any color that's gonna work with it. Thought about any accesories (sp) jerry cans and what not? probably havn't had time yet. I'll bet that old skinny steering wheel IS hell on your hands. It's good to know you saved it from the scrap heep. They're classic.     Rate post 195093 !

On 12/22/2004 Chris Chaput wrote in from United States  (66.116.nnn.nnn) I'm still waiting for someone to suggest green tires and orange hubs. I've got troop seats on the way. I have a cargo cover, end curtains and the cab cover. What it doesn't have is power steering. I get a total workout whenever I drive it. I have some leather gloves to avoid calluses. The ramp is going to be a bit tricky. It really only needs to be strong on the motorcyle side (the sidecar is light by comparison). I have to figure out out how long to make it so it doesn't bottom out when I ride the bike up it into the bed.     Rate post 195056 !

(86 to 92) I guess it would have been alright if I would have had the option of DRIVING now and then! I kinda like the desert paint scheme...It kinda fits for california. I'm from the south and ours were all the woodland green pattern. ANYWAY, it would be too cool if it was done in zebra stripes w/your chartruse green and black! don't forget to stripe the rims too. solid sux. does it have the canvas cover for the back? It should run best on diesel but I'm not familiar w/all the ca. smog laws. You will NEVER get it stuck!!! HAVE FUN W/IT!!!!     Rate post 195007 !

My Christmas present came a little early this year, in the form of an M35A2 "Deuce and a Half" cargo truck. It takes gas, kerosene, diesel, whatever. It's a 13,500 pound 6X6 which eats hummers for breakfast. It's my first convertible! It's uses include: * Motorcycle and sidecar transport * Skateboard wheel and deck pickup and delivery * Base for ramps * Taking my daughters soccer team to the pizza parlor * Turning heads on Main Street, HB Every skater should have one. I'm learning how to cook up my own bio-diesel for fuel so that I can be a "green" company in more ways than one. In the photo above, I am picking up the first 66mm Strikers and 76mm Flywheels. All 11 wheels are available now in just about all of our duros. The fog is lifting and I expect to back in the swing of things soon. Thank you for your patience and for your patronage.
