Its a 1967 Kaiser-Jeep - beyond that you'll have to turn to others. HTH, David Doyle

As a rule the records don't go with the truck - you got (sorta) lucky....

I have the worlds worst internet connection today - so can't post mroe pix. HOWEVER - this topic has been covered in the past couple of months, including photos. Expansible vans come on either deuce (which I have) or five ton chassis. And the only openings are the two rear doors, and a doorway...

My 530C fire truck - built on a M45A2 chassis - had less than 600 original (and yes, I mean ORIGINAL) miles on it when I bought it....truly a low mileage truck. Runs strong too, and snce I got it a wrench hasn't been on the engine (other than the oil drain plugs) DD

RE: Re: RE: Deuce engines The engines are not all the same. There were continued advancements in head gaskets, deck thickness and turbo type that were not applied across the board by the factories (due to contract dates) - so, my thought would be that the last engines built would be the best -...

the trucks that were painted sg od from the factory had wheels of the same color. Black wheels seem to have been popular witht the 3 color nato scheme. HTH, David

Memphis Equip has one here in Memphis - give Tripp a call at 901-774-600. They have a PA location as well. Regards, David Doyle

Know of one in Memphis, TN - that needs restoration.

1971 Regards, David Doyle

RE: finally turning in SF 97 They are both 1970 Kaiser-Jeep built trucks. As stated above, the VIN is the C124-XXXXX numbers. Best wishes, David Doyle

Correct - and I am still looking into how this came to pass. There appears to have been about a thousand older (not new build) trucks assigned NK registration numbers in about 1984 (which, in the big scheme of things, isn't a lot). These trucks had all been previously built by Reo, Studebaker...

I don't recall ever getting your PM Daniel. However, your truck VIN 0325-12769 was built by Kaiser-Jeep in 1968, and assigned registration number NKOFP1. It was built on contract DAAE-06-68-C-0007. Hope this helps, David Doyle

Jeff, You do realize that the long number at the bottom in your photo (10872QQ5 or such) is the part number of the frame - not the VIN. Since this number is common to a lot of trucks, one of these days there will become titling issues for some folks because of this. BTW - really enjoyed...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Who made M35A2 From the VIN on the paperwork, 0125-30215, the truck was built in 1967 (MAYBE 1968 - don't have my notes with me). Nevertheless, it looks like it is in great shape! Congrats! David Doyle

Re: RE: Who made M35A2 Definately.

Once upon a time I did an item for MVM called "care and feeding of wire rope" that details this. If you can't find it I will - but can't until Tuesday. Sorry no better help at the moment. Regards, David Doyle

I've never used a "jump pack" to start a MV. If I were using lose conventional batteries this would require three single jumper cables. One to connect between the + of one fresh battery to the - of the other fresh battery, and then one each between the other post of each of the fresh batteries...

I think this is a crock. EVERYONE is basically lazy. You can dismantle the transmission and remove a gear - OR you could fab up a piece of steel and bolt to the dash so that the shift lever won't move into the fifth gear position. Which is PFC Snuffy gonna do, IF they were so inclined to...

I think this is the photo you want to see...... (BTW, I am working towards getting this story posted - but I've got to get the rights to it back so we don't run into copyright problems).
