    M215 For Sale ???

    Hey D8dave, I spoke to Pierre a couple years ago about his M215, he regrets selling it and thought he sold it for too little. The truck listed on David Uhrig's site is very nice, but it appears to be missing its tail gate and has the wrong fuel tank. The tail gate is unique, only common to the...

    Pulled Halftrack Motor

    M2 Halftrack Don't be envious, consider you and your check book very lucky! I'm putting this one together one piece at a time (like the John Cash song), Much more $ to do it this way than to buy a complete one. At this point I'm only missing a few rear armor pieces that will be easy to repo...

    Pulled Halftrack Motor

    Hello SS, I wanted to share a couple pictures of pulling the motor out of the M2 Halftrack project. The little Case 455 made it easy once I figured out how to sling it with the web strap. Did a complete rebuild of the White 160AX motor in frame, ran the engine for about an hour before pulling...

    Why aren't Korean era deuces as popular as others?

    M215 color To those enquiring about our M215 paint color, it is Gillespie #34087 Lusterless Khaki Olive Drab. This color was selected for several reasons, the traditional semi-gloss #24087 was not introduced until 1957 +/- our truck was produced in 1953. More importantly I don't like the way...

    Why aren't Korean era deuces as popular as others?

    Ring mount The socket attached to the front RH corner of your cab is for one of the three legs to support a machine gun ring mount. The other two legs attach to the rear of your cab in two channels with U-bolts. Karl
