Purple Camo, eight ball shift knob, dice hanging from the wiper motor, coon tails from the mirrors, fender skirts, continental kit off the bumperettes, you and Cal-Deuce can go cruising the strip at night!!!!!
Two pics of an XM211 a fellow MV'er just acquired. The rest of the pics are of vehicles that he may be selling soon. When I find out I will post if anyone is interested.
I didn't realize that it was definite that they didn't work as you had said apparently they don't work. Other than that, very nice looking truck. Dropside bed too.
Could even be very low on fuel and not have been running long enough for the temp to have gotten above 120. The fuel guage in pic Reo M54 020 actually looks slightly off empty.
I'm not sure if you can see in the posted pics, but in the full size originals, the front is stenciled TP20 and the rear TP25. Not sure what that means in terms of CTIS or not, but those pressures seem like sandy terrain pressures to me.
Second leg of journey
