My first Expandable! M820

[100dollarman]

I have had about 6 new (not "new") trucks come into the yard this week---- including this M820! I'm excited about it as we have never had one here before--

Its a 1970 showing 12k miles-- cant wait to check it out-- to see how it expands and whatnot.!

Let me know if anyone wants it-- its gonna be a great deal for someone!

Maybe we can all camp in it at Camp Dirtbag!!!!! (no spooning!)

cool! this truck will match my 5ton. what shape is it in?

 

[velociT]

I'd keep it.


I like those a lot.

Does it have the heaters and A/C unit in it? Or the support jacks under the rear? Looks nice.

What's up with the mound of dirt in the first pic?

 

[unclemikey]

They are great vehicles.

Nice truck...needs new front bumper and D shackles.

 

[jollyroger]

You always get the cool stuff. I never get anything nice.

Seriously though that is cool. I have always wanted one. I am looking for an expansible van trailer to pull behind my M-818. Why? Because I can.
Let us know what you want to do with it. And of course how much. Inqueiring minds want to know.

Do you have any pics inside and out with is expanded?

 

[m38mike]

Man, I need one of those things, much more room then the 109!

 

[100dollarman]

Sorry guys-- dont have all the pics requested, but here are a couple more from my computer. It is HUGE compared to a M109!

This one has only 25K miles on it and its available!!!

I replaced the front bumper with a straight one-

Did you roll it across a scale? I have always been curious as to the actual weight of one. I know the data plate says 28,000. They have a lot of iron hanging on them. I thought about using one for a bobber as there were some pretty rough ones at Riley, only they have a secondary frame riveted to the original frame. We would have been drilling rivets for two weeks.

I havent weighed it--

I always wondered about their weight, they list that long double framed chassis as 28,000 and the boxes have a 19,000 data plate on them as well. I know they are a rolling chunk!
