Lenny, try the "old deuce" forum. In here, the threads are on the newer models.

The old deuce forum is for the GMC M135/211 types. It won't be in there.

I just looked in the Deuce TM section and we mostly have the multifuel TM's. You'll find that everything's the same, except the engine, radiator, etc.

You'll need to find out what TM's (TM #) are relevant to your M35 and look for them on eBay or at Portrayal Press (http://www.portrayal.com/). Portrayal probably has everything you need, you can call them and order them (they don't have them listed on their site).

Just found this old post... which took me straight to a "possible source" for such a TM, said to be an original gov. reprint.

Yes, we should have these books included in our own library. Question is how to get something compacted enough to be a practical size, for everyone to download.
I have the parts book ORD 9 SNL G-742 from JAN1955 (thanks to Kenny!) Very good info and excellent photography but its 983 pages; I would start scanning it if I knew how to proceed... and not end with 100+MB.

Look in the 1965 manuals, they cover both if you don't want to buy the real old ones.

I ordered a copy of the TM 9-8022 from these guys http://www.tm-ww2.com/. The price was $14.95.

You can find the older versions of M34, M35 Gas powered manuals on my website at the bottom of the M35 reference library of manuals. Everything is covered in these VERY large manuals, Happy Thanksgiving, JT
