Three hundred miles in a duece is tough. Future trips will be shorter. I
left Stanton, Texas about 11:30 am and arrived Pipe Creek, Texas about
6:30 pm. Probably could have made it sooner, but my butt wouldn't take
it--had to stop and un-numb it every town (every hour to hour and a
half).

The duece is a 1972 M35A2C with a Continental engine with an overhaul
tag that is dated 1988. 39,000 miles with 1700 hours on the speedo and
tach, but have no idea if they are accurate or not. The truck still had
some punch left at 65mph, but I was to chicken to drive it faster than
than. I averaged 55--65 through West Texas and thet Texas Hill Country.

So, now that I have the truck, what special tools do I need? Any
suggestions for the care and feeding of a duece?

Mike T.
