Anyone know where to get M35 data plates?

[miltruckman]

Hi, I have a friend who is restoring several M35a2 trucks and is looking for complete I.D./data plate sets.

We tried "Rod Shavers" MV data plates with no luck? He does not answer his phone??

Anyone have any other suppliers?

Thanks,

Patience works with Rod. Eventually you will get him and the products he produces are good. No body else that I know of sells sets.

email him.

 

[miltruckman]

Sounds good, I just sent him an email.

I've emailed, called, and faxed. Too bad Rod is the only game in town for sets of dataplates. I guess I'll keep trying.

My patience was rewarded two weeks ago. Even punched in the VIN number for me.

data plates

I have a fair amount of data plates available. They are take-offs from trucks I have parted out. I am sure I could come up with 2-3 complete sets reasonable like.

I too am not real fast on response time, but I try.

I am in arizona loading the data plates, stickers, decal, stamping machines etc owned by rod and dan and known as mvdataplates.com. It will take a few weeks to move this inventory to illlinois, sort, inventory, and present it for sale. I plan on updating and filling out gaps in the inventory to offer a very complete selection of mv data plates. Please contact david kelone, dkelone@aol.com or 309-696-7080 with your needs/wants. I rarely check pm's here. I spent the day consolidating and looking over inventory and am amazed at the quantity & selection in this inventory--need plates for your fuel tanker, parts washer, pump, genset, ammo storage rack, etc. The list goes on and on. How about an abrams tank turret plate to finish out your new toy? I now have sources for pretty much any mv plate. I look forward to being of service. Thanks, david

Jeff at FrontLine used to have them. Don't know if he still does or is still around-

I ran a search and came up with this thread and a few associated with it.

Just wondered if there was still issues with acquiring these from the known vendors and if there really is a market for them.

I now have the capability to manufacture new data plates for any vehicle and anything else including full color (any color) and stamping of the vin #'s.

Going to start off with the Deuce (for myself) and see where it goes.
Thanks in advance for any input.

I could use a full set for my Bobbed deuce and I have a friend rebuilding several trucks that is looking for entire sets for all the trucks he is working on.

P.S.

I need a complete set for my M35A2.

Sounds like David is in the game still. I am sending you an email

EMR and Milktruckman,
Here is the one's that are in my Deuce. I'll be remaking these since they did not do such a high tech masking job when they changed the color of mine from Desert Tan to OD Green and repainted over the data plates.
If you have something different let me know-especially the W/W plate and the Stock # and Contract #'s.
Also the newer versions have yellow on them - which I can do as well.


Post edit:
Forgot the Transfer switch pic. The Start button plate will be done as well.

 

[srodocker]

so your plates coming out brand new? and how much for a set?

CHeck out GPW - MB - CJ 2A/3A/3B - MC/M38 Visual Reference they have a good selection

I know a lot of guys will want the small floor mounted plate that is for the front winch PTO, has rev, low, N, high.

I used Greg Knoyle and am very happy with the printed dataplate I got for my M1083 (406)543-8816 dataplates.net

So big problem for thouse of us that don't have a drill press..... Just about all the data plates I find are not pre drilled, also the ones I got from Mike's where bigger than my stock ones. Not blaming Mike's but man this is kind da frustrating that none of this is mentioned in any of the product descriptions on anyone's stores.
