    M939 with FMTV Bed

    Here is my M934A2 truck with a 20' FMTV bed. Stewart and Stevenson performed the transplant when they owned it. The sides are easier to fold down with the 3 sections... much lighter to handle. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

    395 in-bed spare tire carrier

    I built a spare tire carrier for one of the bobbers. My wheels make it easy to change tires so I only carry a spare tire instead of a tire/wheel combo. This is setup keeps the rain and crud out. I think the in-bed set up gives it an old school look. What say ye? Justin Wehring 979 997 3112
