The only XM706 as stated.

Exporting surplus military anything from most countries is not as simple as it sounds. Most will not do it, period. And the one's that will, finding a trustworthy person there in which to deal is quite another story.

The studs were for mounting experimental add-on armor for the Venezuela army contract.

The right side shifting link; the part it attaches to at the transmission is the bell crank. The bell crank pivot needs to be snug fit with no play or you will be fishing for gears. As for rear axle problems, in the context of 18 year old GIs vs. adults...enough said. I don't think anyone has...

For your viewing pleasure, this XM-706 we restored three years ago and has a very happy owner. It is the only early model we know of and certainly in private hands. We love before and after photos....

Where's the best site to learn about Ford T16's? Any suggestions?

Did any US Jeeps use full size soft doors in WWII? I know they did in Korea, and that the Brits did in WWII, but US?
