Your truck was overhauled on 10/2000. Two different MWOs were applied to the truck. You can GOOGLE the MWO numbers to find out what was done. There is no mileage listed.
I think the information they provide is generally good and forthright, but I still adhere to caveat emptor. With that said, NOTHING beats an in-person inspection. I, too, most often cannot inspect in-person. I think you need to understand that the pictures and description are provided to give...
I, too, have used RAPCO spray cans and it worked great. I once repainted an entire M35A2 and also an M105A2. I ended up having the M35A2 re-CARCed, but the trailer looked great seven years later.
Very impressive work on a beautiful vehicle. I dreamt of trying to buy the M60A1 that came up for sale in TX a few years back, but I came up a couple (hundred) thousand short.
My brother was in the Army from 1982 until the early 2000s. During that time, he was never stationed in Germany, but he did go over there a few times. During one of his trips near Munich in the mid-80s (I saw one pic of the HOFBRAUHAUS), he took a bunch of pictures of M880s, M818s, M35s, and...
I think that mounting point was where the TOW launcher was stored when in transit. As I said, "I think" this is how it worked. I hope someone who served can confirm this.

Not that it matters, but I was curious what type of truck he was driving. Apparently, he was driving either an M923 or M925 with super singles. I could not tell from the pic if it was an A1 or A2. One newspaper story (not the one I mentioned above) said he was driving a "deuce and a half"...
Mike, contact Dave Olchak. He had lightbars a while back. I just don't know if he still has them. I don't remember the colors he had, but I believe he might have had multiple colors (e.g., yellow, blue, red).
