There was one in a storage place outside Branson, MO, there was a number but no price. I am sure it was one of vehicles they use commercially there in Branson.
The box on the neck of the trailer looks original? Does it use 11x20 tires and wheels? The guy who owns it is very hard to negotiate with, he will come down but only over time and time is what I don't have, I want to move my 813 home over Christmas so time will be short on this project. He...
I didn't have a flash light, I will have a better look tomorrow, it looks like it a good 35-40 feet long! Anyone have any idea of a reasonable price, he also has some type of converter dolly in a fenced in area, I will get a couple of photos tomorrow, with the dolly my 813 should be able to...
Saw this trailer just at dark tonight, it's in a cleared off lot going up for sale, so it my be lined up for scraping, I know zip about bigger trailers but it looks like one of the aircraft recovery trailers? Any ideas?
I have a dozen 9x20 tires mounted on Deuce wheels, I am just going to use them for the time being. Last time I looked at the correct tires they were a couple of time more than I paid for the truck!
I hope to have the same luck with mine, most of the parts are supposed to be off the shelf at least for the drive train. I have filled the engine with oil all the way to the top of the oil filler neck hopefully this help off set the thirty years or so it has been sitting out in the woods.
Mine hasn't run in 20 years everything is there including a broken off spark plug. Do a search on some English/British military forums, that's where I found most of the info on my truck. There is a bed for sale on one of the Idaho Craig's list.

I have a WC52 in line for restoration but little knowledge of it. $2500 is going to be hard on the GTB I only paid $5-600 on mine but it was a deal, I would think it would move for $1500 or so.

I really like the 5 Tons, along with the M543 and the 818 I intend putting them back to full stock, the M543 to it's original shade and the other two are going three color, I am also adding winches and level winders two the two without. I still need a tensioner and propeller shaft for one...
It's down the list for renovation, I am looking for parts right now, including a windshield and passenger seat. Is the GTB in your avatar on Craig's list? It looks really familiar!
I like the truck, drives good and is going to look great in three color camo with a winch and level winder on it(new in 2011! I just need to get some good weather after Christmas to drive it the 300 miles to my cabin! I really like driving it with the top off, just have to pick the right day...
The battery is toast in my GPS so I am going to have to have someone pace me to get the real speed, the truck has good power and no strange noises and cruises nice even at the higher rpms, got to work on the throttle my right leg is sore, everything on the truck is tight, which is a good sign...
