Hello all,
I purchased a 1970 AM GENERAL M35A2 recently. This is going to be a build thread as I go.
It is in relatively good condition. It has 13k was rebuilt in 88. The PO did a craptastic paint job the wrong color shade and installed a 20k winch half way. It has a leaking radiator and partially working gauges. All the oil seals in the axles t case and trans are leaking.
I'm going to be fully redoing this in my own taste(which might change as I go).
I have already done the fdc bypass,aux brake master reservoir, spin on oil filter conversion, replaced some gauges, fixed the alternator. I ordered all new seals and a new seat. I also started fabbing up a hard top out of 1/8" plate and 1.5" square tubing.
Here are some pics!
Thanks for looking.
Chris
