Question re: "Deuce and a halfs"
 

I'm contemplating picking up a surplus USGI 2.5 ton truck. Anybody familiar with them? What should a decent one go for? How hard are they to get parts for, and to find somenbody competent to repair them? Are they street-legal in the original military configuration?

Not sure about them but I know used Hummer from the US Army is not legal in canada I know someone that bought one so now he has a $50,000 farm truck!

man, that sucks about your friend's vehicle. I know rules are somewhat different down here, though. I know a guy who has a WWII "halftrack", which he was able to make street legal by modifying it (the main mod was replacing the metal track with a composite track so it wouldn't rip up the road, it already had signalling gear)

I wouldn't hurt to look into it...got any pics?

of what, the halftrack? Nah, he doesn't like people taking pics of his stuff. Honestly, he's a little bit paranoid, but he's earned that right.

To bad! :crazy:
