1-1/4 ton trailer? Do you mean 1-1/2 ton trailer? Are you talking about an M105, M332, M149, M103, or similar trailer. If so, you don't need air to release the brakes. You can haul them with any pick up truck or other truck that does not have gladhands. With that said, be careful, because...

...or you could use your $1,500 to buy a complete truck that is stock from GL. I love the idea of saving trucks, but it would probably be cheaper in the end to buy a truck that is the way you want it, rather than trying to put this one back together (assuming that is what you had planned).

There might be some quality differences between the tan and camo rebuilt trucks. I don't know. 2OLD2SLOW, are the trucks in your motor pool camo or tan? Perhaps, they came from different rebuild facilities.

A transmission rebuild from Allison will set you back more than you paid for the entire truck! I know because I had the transmission in my M925A2 rebuilt by Allison. I would exhaust every possibility first.

A nice multifuel dump (rust free, nice paint, good rubber, good runner) is worth $7,500 retail (add a grand for a winch).

Watch out. I would inspect. I talked to John Murray and he said that he is not impressed with these particular rebuilds and he has had several. I had no idea what he meant until a friend got two. They are not as nice as they look in the pics. One of my friends trucks looks mostly rebuilt...

So, tow it home and check the bulbs once you get it back. If you are really worried about a marker light that is out, take a bulb out of one of the red side marker lights. No one will know it is missing.

The M939 series is much more than an M809 series with some reworked sheet metal. As others have said, the cab is much wider to start with. There is no way...that will look reasonable...to adapt an M939 series hood to an M809 series cab. Guys want to try to do what can't be done. I say...PROVE...

I had an M35A2 moved from Chambersburg to Meade. It worked out for me because I live about 45 minutes from Meade. I asked the GL site manager in Chambersburg who I know well about this and he told me they reviewed the addresses of the guys who bought stuff and only moved stuff if they were...

In terms of the defroster, why not install a fuel burning heater? There are kits available for sale on this site, I believe. I realize you said you won't be driving it in the cold weather, but it would be nice to be able to! M109GUY had a good idea about the sun visors. If that falls...

Same. The beauty of GULFWAY is that you don't need to keep your trucks in a locked garage. JMH4X4 is correct...GULFWAY does not allow for everyday driving, but they also don't have any mileage restrictions so it would be fine to drive your truck to a show in another state for example. The...

$14K for that Durmax powered ambulance? If that is right, that is cheap.

I love the MERDC scheme, too. Were M35A3s ever painted in the 4 color MERDC camo scheme? I have never seen one painted this way. I suppose some unit could have opted to paint their truck in this scheme, but they were rebuilt in the early to mid-90s after the the 3 color camo pattern had...

Since you will be painting the truck and the hood needs work, do yourself a favor and find a fiberglass hood to replace the older hood with the patches and rivets.

The 8 indicates that it has 8 cylinders and the 92 indicates that it is 92 cubic inches per cylinder...so the motor is 736 cubic inches. As STALWART said, the motor is big. It puts out 450 HP.

I suggest going with the older 4 color MERDC camo. You almost never see CUCVs still in this scheme. Everyone and their brother has a solid green, tan or camo CUCV. Make yours different from the masses.

It might have had 73 original miles...but it is a 26 year old Chevy ambulance! That is crazy money. I could see that price IF you could not find nice M1010s, but they are out there. I'd rather have the truck the guy above described as being nice with 7K miles. I bet he is asking reasonable...

CARNAC, you were loaded down this year. I can't wait to see your rig roll in next year with a forklift, too! Thanks for the great deals at the show. It was great to see you.

Jesse, looks great.

Kenny is right (as usual!). The M1028s were never intended for troop seats, although there is nothing stopping you from installing them since the beds are identical to those on the M1008s. The M1028s have the heavier rear suspension for hauling shelters around.
