Hello, Just want to say hi. I just won a 71 M35A2 and am looking forward to the long road of fixing and rebuild.
As a newbie to MV and SS I hope I do not ask too many newbie questions.

Read and ask questions, this place is a walking talking service manual for about anything military. You found a great resource for you and your truck! Welcome to the forums... Glen

Welcome from the Peoples Republic of Maryland. Great bunch of folks here and more information than you have questions. If you check under the "Resource" menu and go to technical manuals you will find all the TM's for your truck.

[M35A2-AZ]

The only pics I have are from GL. When I get the truck I will post more.
I have to wait for the EUC..first timer....

Welcome from Eastern Kentucky.

A winch, a hard top, decent looking tires and racks/troop seats, and a good looking truck.

If it is as solid as it looks, you are off to a good start.

That is a great looking truck!

Welcome to the site-that's a great looking truck. Hardtop, winch, fiberglass seats, air assist steering (looks like it), etc.

The best advice I can give you is just to read-sit down at night and rear threads in the deuce forum.

After a few hundred threads, you'll be amazed at how much you used to not know.

I recognize that truck! I bid on it early and promptly got smoked! I was ready to sell my dog, but nobody would make me a decent offer... just kidding, about the dog anyway. Glen

Great looking truck! The wait begins!

 

[M35A2-AZ]

Thanks guys!! I did pay a little more then I wanted to, but I guess that is always the case. Hope I can get it home ok.
The waiting is killing me. I should get my EUC back the first of Jan., but it will be winter and that is going to be a pain.

I have been reading on SS a lot. There is so much good info. here.

(91W350) Nice looking dogs!!!

Welcome from Georgia. Cool truck

 

[ctmustang]

NC welcomes you- That is definately a good looking truck for your first one. Looks like first time euc's are going 4 months so you have plenty of time to read up on it. Good luck with it.

Welcome from socal ! Great looking truck!!

 

[parlusk]

sweet looking truck.. what do you have planed for it?

 

[monkeythumbs]

I think your truck was brought up an a seperate thread here because of the price it went for. People (Okay, maybe just me) were curious if the winner (you) had some inside knowledge or even preview it. Is that the going price in your neck of the woods ?
