Cook, I like your plan. SRJeeper used to say that the best primer is existing paint that sticking tight. Unnecessary blasting might leave you with some areas stripped of galvanized and others with it remaining. If you're going with flat, it'll tend to hide a lot of flaws and will be friendly to...
Carl - Is this what you're looking for? If so, let me know and include a phone. I'd need to get it on a truck coming up by this evening.
Thanks.

The advice to go to the site above was good. I spent a bit of time there and found not only asking prices for current sales but also sold trucks with their selling prices. That would be the best way to guesstimate your mark. From 2 photos above, I tend to think it would bring a nice price...
Very nice entry into the hobby. Those plates are better than our historic plates.
And to quote my friend Art: "Of course it's got rust. It's a DEUCE!"
Welcome from NJ.

(2) Bosch Premium Performance Battery Group Size H6/L3/48 that were bought in April topped off w/ charge and put on maintainer but never installed (sold the truck). High CA, CCA for the size.
They'll fit smaller MVs. Will just fit an...
After watching most of the auctions recently, I'd want to buy from an individual. I've seen several in recent years from auction need far more in fixup $ than it would have cost for a running one from a private owner.
A friend just bought one a couple weeks ago from Jatonka. We met up with...
This might not be a good idea if you're looking for a real restoration, but if it's pretty sound and the price falls in as above, it might be fun to just flesh it out as what it now is. Give it the feel of one that couldn't do the original job but that was put together to work in the field for...
Is this the one you were looking for? I love it and I'm a restoration kinda guy.

Offhand, I don't know and can't quickly find that, but I'd suggest that you bring along as many wrenches, screwdrivers, and tools of as many types as you can - - not just one or two. You'll need a few of them to go over the truck. Have relevant manual pages and lots of photos to compare for...
98G: "...The rear bumper is custom made with a custom integral hitch set much higher in order to tow military trailers level (actually optimized for the M1101's height). It is not just a riser that would multiply twisting forces and break things..."
I'd like to see some photos of that setup...
I suspect you found this out in The Islips, and the front-passenger tool box lid is bent, missing half of the driver's-rear outrigger. Starts with a hot wire. If so, I'm very glad it found a home. TPK and I spent a few hours there with it last weekend, but it came to pass that he needed to...
