Coming with Three Cargo Covers to Sell

When I picked up my Deuce there were extra covers on a pallet. Two for the M35A2 and one for the M36A2. Think anyone will be interested at the Clare Swap Meet? I will be there on Friday only, no set up, just walking around looking for parts. I will carry have some kind of sign with three covers for sale.

Color / Material of the M36 cover?
same for the M35 covers?

I'll be there at some point Friday & staying Saturday buying & selling.
( although I fear there will be more buying than selling on my part :cry: )

Saturday typically has more, as many have to work Friday.

Ted, M36 is 20 feet long. The M813 should be 14 feet long. Will not work without a lot hanging off the back.

Bed Length?

Ida34 - Just clarifying - isn't M36 a long bed 2 1/2 ton? I thought these were 17 foot beds (std M35 is 12 foot?). I always thought std 5 ton was 14 foot and long beds were 20 foot. It's been a while since I have seen a 2 1/2 long bed in person, so I may be wrong.

What?! Maxim's gonna show up in a SUV! (M1009) J/K Rod
That's ok, I'll have the desert tan deuce there, M36A2 (w/17'4" bed)
Have the 3 color top already, but (aw crap I forgot his name) Andrews Dad, may be in need of a M36 cover.
I'm on track to get there with Chuck (196thprober) in the morning, A two deuce convoy! or would that be a Deuce Deuce convoy?

It could be 17 feet but either way can't use the cover on a 14 foot 5 ton bed. I should have put IIRC I guess.
