So wrong

It looks like a Chevy cab on a M35A3 chassis. The funny thing is that they kept the hood fenders and grill.

I have seen several water trucks locally that have civilian cabs and front ends on military chassis

I have considered such a swap using a Dodge crew cab on a bobbed chasis. You have to admit that the deuce lacks a lot of creature comforts. It would be a lot easier and cheaper than fabbing a crew cab deuce.

Put air ride on the back and a gooseneck hitch and you would have a pretty nice Hotshot rig.

I think you ought to take one of those NOS MK48 cabs and hang it out in front of the bumper with a couple of frame rail extensions made from 4x4 lumber. Pressure treated, of course.

I like it. Period.

I give the man credit for taking his "skills" and "ingenuity" and building a more comfortable deuce. It is no worse than the average bobber, and is creative at that. He kept the deuce front, all it needs is to lose the snorkel (or get a better one), get side panels, and put the A2 front on it.
It really is a good blending job, considering what he used.
$8000 is near the average price for a bobber, no?

It's not an A3, it has a multifuel and the radiator is in the A2 location. Looks like they added A3 lights to a A2 and made panels to cover the stock light panels.
I see the air conditioning compressor above the alt. I see the stock deuce heater controls under the dash though.

a properly fitted snorkel following the a pillar and the a2 headlight location would make it look pretty good.
