    Truck history

    Is there any way to trace the history of a 5 ton?It came with nothing.....no kind of title.We got it from the federal surplus and they said they didn't know where it came from.It is an 813 Navy truck.25k and 800 hrs.Does anyone know what a camel on the door means?Thanks.

    M813 series intake mods

    We don't have any 100 year old oak trees but we have some pretty good size mesquite trees.I hope the tires are as tough as the rest of the truck.Mesquites have big thorns.

    M813 series intake mods
