I have a couple of those as well. The NSN shows up in the m911 TM.

M915 series? The m915a2 was the first freightliner design.

Nice CUCV II, my old gasser Tahoe was converted to 12 volt only as well. I installed a factory center console from my local junkyard in mine.

I believe right around 1966 was the last year for the reversible headlight panels and low headlights on non winch trucks. Unlike the later trucks with the rubber isolators on the headlight buckets the gassers and early multifuels had rubber isolators on the mounting panel which can be rotated...

You should buy the other m108 in that yard and they can go on the same truck to my place.:whistle: It's a project but not as big a project as mine! I'm not sure yet what will happen as far as the engine but I'll keep that in mind. I have a set of almost mint gasser fenders and an NOS gasser...

So here's a little bit of backstory on this truck which will explain why I had to have it instead of any old m108. I can trace the history of it back around 30 years to at least 3 owners right now, and it's been in the same condition (more or less) since then. I'm at least the 3rd and...

This 1953 Studebaker needs a little bit of work, and it's missing a lot of parts. I'll get a better idea of the extent of the project once it's in the yard, but if it does get fixed up there won't be a whole lot of original parts on it other than maybe the crane, frame, and springs. All of the...

Well, that looks just like I figured it would.

If your dad never changed the ignition cylinder then you don't need to buy one. Someone here on the site will probably mail you the key for free, seeing as we all have it. If your dad never changed the ignition cylinder or the door locks then you already have the key.

They're the same, the part number is found in the parts books for both series of trucks.

I guess I'm a little lost here. From the factory CUCVs have only one key that fits both the doors and the ignition. If you have a standard CUCV ignition cylinder you can easily get a key. To actually answer the question yes a civilian ignition switch works fine (which I guess you would have...

They’ll fit with a little room to spare. Since the m105 stakes are smaller if you want to use bows you’ll have to either modify m101 bows to fit the stakes, cut down m105 bows to fit the width of the trailer, or use the newer all metal bows.

If it's a complete top then it's a two person job. If you unbolt the back panel from the top then you might be able to do it yourself. They're pretty hefty.

The number on the data tag should match the one on the frame.

I had one just like that in the yard a few years ago. Like mentioned it's just typical m116a3 chassis, although I don't remember a dataplate saying so.

Welcome to the site, CUCVs are great trucks.

I’ve never noticed before that there were two different booms for m60s and m108s. Type A: Tapered Type B: Straight and looks to be taller towards the hook end. The one with the “heavier” boom is a 1953 s/n m35xxx. From what I’ve seen other 1953 studebakers with lower serial numbers have the...

I'm going to try to get it home to VT at some point soon for a future project. Maybe there's one out there with a good boom and a few outriggers, that could help us both out :).

An m108 has been on my "gotta have it" list for a while now. I'm sure there are plenty out there that would be a much easier restoration than this one. It's a 1953 Studebaker. It's got a good frame so technically it's savable. The downside is it needs all new sheet metal, a cab/doors/all...

The dump truck has actually been a little useful lately while doing some tree trimming around the yard. It would really be nice if it was on the road but at least it's somewhat operable. A couple years back I learned that the m108 a couple posts up is owned by another friend of mine, and...
