Thanks for the complement. The body is by Coachworks I think. I fitted the running boards and fender arches as I like the chevy style all in line look. The F350 canme from U.S.A.F.E. Lakenheath. My other one from Mildenhall, and yet another from an unkown base over here. Made two good ones out...

Congratulations on your trip and aquisition. Any chance to post pictures and a trip write up.

An injunction will stop it!

There Y'a go..a little applied science works wonders every time. Now you can carry on enjoying (and avoiding that satisfied smirk!)

There, is a a worth while project to keep you interested and occupied for a long time. I wish I had some medic experience as you have, so as to use and or demonstrate the medical kit I have managed to obtain over a long period. My ambulance is the F350 and much used in all sectors apparantly...

AHA! now I see what it is'nt..A military thing..thank you, I will definately not be the next owner of it then. Still think it does look rather nice. Ho Hum.

Second that, take the time (If you have it) and enjoy the trip, Is the vehicle sound, serviced, and running good?.

OK, I did think they look impressive, but if thats just paint then I guess I can give it a miss. I was undecided anyway with it looking quite so modern "civilianised". Quite quick I'm told but not a multifuel, another considaration.

You dropped on lucky with that one. What a find. And a nice project. post the finished task pictures.

I have been wanting one of these for a long time. And one has come up for sale again over here. I really like the looks of it, and the sound of the V8 Cat turbo engine. Only thing making me pause, They do not have front wheel drive. Does anyone over there have any experience of them, as I never...

Amazing stuff grease. I filled the front tractor joints, Gearbox, transfer, and steering box on my WW11 jeep with moly grease in the 70s! still going fine. Does the propshafts, speedo cable ,anything that slides or moves!. That old WW11 jeep been all round the world in all climates. In fact That...

I like the look of that truck with it's single wheel stance. Congratulations.

Congratulations on a very nice looking truck. Whilst you are shopping, Treat yourself to an air impact wrench. You wont regret it, and it should work ok from your emrgeancy glad on the rear of your truck (the red one).

Body Transfer Pictures Site crashes trying to add more than one picture , here hopefull are some pictures I found of one conversion. Praga to M54 body.

I did this with two conversions I did. And was fortunate to have two forktrucks and an M62 in the collection. I actually did one on my own, (by) jumping from one fork truck to the other!. and gradually lifting each side. The things we do (did) when we are Young(er). Still kept one forklift for...

Nope. What about a picture?. (worth a 1000 words). that would help as just about any one of a huge range engines would retro fit the M54 series trucks. And in any case surley there is an I.D. in the form of stampings or I.D. plates.

Why not use the gear oil as gear oil?. Where hypoid isnt needed. Cutting with fuel should be in a high ratio due to the thickness. I did not like using gear oils because of the exessive smoke.

Collectors paradise..thanks for the picture. Wonder if they upgraded to the M35s later.

Just think of it as tuning an airiel to suit your CB. As you would with say a dv27 or k7 etc. So buy an ariel Matcher (SWR) meter. ( You should have one allready really). And tune for the lowest peak by adjusting the matcher And your antenna length. Any C.B. enthusiast or radio ham can help you...

We use a mix of Moly Grease and S.T.P. works great, stopped our leak, and the steering is better.
