Had to add pictures of my M1917 Ambulance. I built this back in 2002, and I think wulfy33 might have called me several hundred times to try and get copies of my plans ;-). Mine is in the markings of C Company, 101st Machine Gun Battalion, 26th "Yankee Division". When WW1 started, Ford was able...
As best as I can recall off hand, the M-34:
-has the trouble light outlet inside the engine compartment
-there are two air connections in the cab, one on the driver side and one on the passenger side
-the front fender supports have two holes through them instead of one
-the choke control is...
The cargo beds for the M135 and M34 are actually one and the same. Some later production M34's actually had the slanted wheel wells on them and some early M135's had the squared off wheel wells.
The slanted wells are actually just earlier beds with cross braces welded across the corners as a...
I'm looking for a Mk 2 or later ferret mechanically sound and in decent shape. I have a working M62 Wrecker in good condition to trade if anyone is interested.
Thanks,

The breaks were working before hand. I looked at them after wards, and one line to one of the rear wheels was cut and capped off. Also, it does not have the correct master cylinder in it. The one on there was jury rigged from something else.
If any one has a 5-ton mastery cylinder or airpack...
Within minutes the cops, FD, Public Utilities, the Gas Company, and a reporter from the local paper were there. It happened right in the middle of town so everyone and their uncle drove by as well. I had to have the truck towed 200 Yards to my house for almost what it cost me to have it towed...
So, I drive the thing out on to the main drag in my town (a very busy four lane road) and turn up my street which is a very steep hill. When I get near the top, the thing stalls out. I desperatly try to down shift and get her started again. I put my foot on the break and the pedal goes...
So I bought this 5-Ton M-62 Wrecker from a guy on ebay. He advertised it as "runs good, everything works." He owned a 45 foot yacht and used the wrecker to pull it on and off it's trailer every year.
I got it for a good price and arranged to have it hauled to a strip mall near my home. The...
Frank, that is an early tailgate that was used on the early, early M-34's and M135's. It had an integral step instead of the loops seen on later tailgates.
I am restoring a 1950 M-34 to be an exact replica of the truck my dad drove in the Army. This tailgate is the only thing I am missing...
