Maybe m792 gama goat?

Looks like a m35 gasser fender to me, that's why it's so close to the engine. Later fenders had more clearance for the multifuel engines.

That’s my friend Keith that bought the BII from recovry . That extra set of adapters ended up in VT.

Are we not allowed to say hi to new members anymore?:|

Welcome and nice truck. The trailer looks to be an m101a1 model instead of an m105. Also the cover is on backwards.:)

At a cost of over 200k when new.:-P I believe they're built by MCT Industries. A friend of mine got one for cheap at auction a while back that was only maybe 3 or 4 years old (no tools or genset). All 8 tires were flat spotted because they towed it with the brakes locked up. He changed out the...

I don't think I saw it mentioned yet; 1" tow bar pins are often too big to fit the shackle mounts on the GMC trucks so keep that in mind.

:ditto:Nothing is missing.

They're not 7/8", they're 1". Many civilian 1" shackles won't fit (too narrow for the mount) so your best bet is to post a want ad like 90jimmy said. Someone here will have an extra set.

Welcome to the site.

I figured I'd ask since the camo paint is spot on for a Canadian truck, plus it has west coast mirrors. I also always figured the extra pins and chains on the racks was only on the Canadian m135s.

I think you did pretty good! They both look to be in decent shape from the few pics; is the m135 Canadian or American?

Nice, looks like the one AMGeneral had: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?175315-New-to-me-1969-M274A5-Bayfield-mule As far as I know unless you can find unit markings on it then there's no easy way to find its history anymore.

Welcome to the site.

Gun ring.

It’s more like the m59 dump truck. Same wheelbase, fuel tank, and similar frame (the tractor has the angle cuts for the ramps at the back). No frame reinforcements on either. The m342 dump is the standard wheelbase and has a reinforced frame.

Looks good!

Yes they all still had manual steering from the factory. Occasionally air assist steering was added to trucks later on but it’s very unlikely to be on the truck you’re looking at. Other than the stuff I mentioned above the rear quarter fenders, ramps at the back, and deck plates may be tough...

It’s a shorter wheelbase, about 1 foot if I remember right. No spare tire mount on the m275. Single long fuel tank on the driver’s side instead of the standard tank on the passenger side. Yes it’s the same series of truck as the m35a2 and most all major parts interchange with the exception of...
