I seem to remember that I put the MWO book into the TM section. If you mean the hard top with storage space in both sides?
This thing was sitting on the ground in gravel it had 3 windows and 3 pop out vents on each side of it like on the sleeper of a tractor trailer with big opening on back missing the barn doors that came with it !

No, not what I posted. You got a picture? I know maybe someone who has some info on it.
Did you hear anything from your friend on the hardtop?

Thats even cooler ! I thought it might have a number like s-250 s 280 or something!!! No worries ! Do you ever run across either one of the hard tops ?
It's just a helmet top. Not a shelter with a designation. I've seen them at yards just not that common unless it's on a hmmwv.
You can try calling AMtech and getting the NSN off their part number.

I know they are limited in surplus/civilian hands. A few FMTV shells got out a few years back through GP but they were rough and just the shell. No doors, windows, locks, etc. They'd be awesome to have for sure! I managed to grab an LTT (for HMMWV) by accident that was still in the crate and AM General came knocking on my door wanting it for a project.
The picture i posted above for the 5 ton is the only one i ever saw on gp and it went thru twice to finally sale out of kansas base it had the big red scorch mark on its side and it went for 1200 best i remember but i searched that and it was already removed i beleave it was in 2018

My buddy told me, just like Simp wrote, no M-number. He also said that it might be listed in the TM9-2320-333-10HR or TM9-2320-333-14. Its been a while since he saw one, and is not real sure what TM its in, but was fairly sure, its listed in the TM.
Thanks across the pond !
