New Guntruck

[m816]

I stopped by a friend in NJ yesterday. His name is Kieth Boda. He is recently retired from the Guard. He has decided to build "Otto" a 3/4 ton guntruck. He needs some pictures, specifications on proper equipment. as well as unit markings. We have offered to help him with the build here in the Chatham Motorpool.
Hey Driver can you send some stuff this way and I will pass it on to him untill I get him to contact you directly? Vinny

Sounds like a cool build, even if I am thinking it has already been done. Not sure on that though....Driver, where are you?!? PB, you too!

Remember to post pics of the build.

I thought someone was doing that truck also. It was one of the ones I was considering at the time....

Vinny,
If he uses steel, tell him to find some M-43 springs, they got a couple extra leafs in em.

How come all the builds on these seem to be out on the east coast? Guess we'll just have to get over our financial bashfullness and get our build of Godzilla underway.

What were the Guns on Otto? Looks like twin 60s on a few pictures and another looked like perhaps a 50?

Would anyone know?

Gun trucks evolve. Inone picture you may see a single sixty. In another it may have twin sixty's. Maybe a sixty in the fron and one in the back. Do as much research as you can and settle on what you want to make it.

I've always wanted to build a gun truck! Maybe one of these days... Looks like twin M60Ds in most of the pics. I sell replicas built on demilled receivers, let me know if you need any... http://replicas.hardscrabblefarm.com/
