There is now another one rolling around. due to lack of data plates, I'm not sure if it's a 75 or 85. It has 12 roof vents, M59 ovens, 2 of the M2 burners have had BBQ guts put on them, canvass ... well what do you expect. Needs the canopy lifting jacks and many other small things. For the price...
Tom, you have really impressed me. the job that you took one, would make a weak man run!
You know that we watch this thread.
I'm really glad that you and Digger Dave hooked up.
When you get the road test, you will see why we love these beasts.
I want video of yours!
Only because it will...
As per Mil Spec, and most state laws, Amber is the color. Warning .....
Blue is for Police and in Eastern Canada , snow plows.
The concoy light kit is available on E-Pay, and the prices are usually way cheaper than I could get off the shelf prices from NAPA. The wiring and posts are the most...

If you get a lemon from GL, it's your problem. It's a gamble.
There are several very reputable sellers in your area who advertise in the classifieds here.
If they sell something sub par, they get hounded mercilessly.
You may spend a bit more initially, but with a good inspection,
you have...
Some pics of an as new truck. I would love to find the history, and most importantly, it's original date of birth.
DMV are driving us crazy,
Because .... they have never seen one like this before!
Runs sweet, but ... CTIS is a pain where it is not polite to scratch in public.
Yes, I am...
You really should hop over and look at this thread. Some things may be of help to you.
The rest of it is just MV pqrn. (Spell check won't allow the real word)

Here's something to drool over. It has been re-homed to one...
It looks like some people are saying that they appreciate what you are doing.
The donations for our M135 have been incredible, and now we have added a few more vehicles that we use for the veterans. ... M36A3, M105, M37, WC52 ...
Enjoy, you've done a great job!
Great videos.
I hope that others on the route will take a couple more,
so that we all can share vicariuosly in this adventure!
And ... KEEP THE PHOTOS COMING!
So .... Did you have fun? Plan B must have been great to drive.
I know that you are not a show off guy,
But what size of Fire Axe do we need to wipe that grin off your face?
Your resto job on this old wounded warrior was top shelf.
Kinda nice that you got to take it out on an urgent run...
If you want a newer truck, get one. Butchering that one, which from the pic, looks fairly good, will just cost. And you will have a mongrel of a truck, not a collectible piece.
Tell us what the issues are, and we might be able to tell you ways to solve them.
Or just sell it to a collector...
VFW and The American Legion might be able to help, if you ask each local branch, individually.

Ask American Red Cross, and Salvation Army.
They are...
