Wow, I can see the holes from here. Must have been stationed or kept near the ocean.
Looks like it's got a turbo'd multifuel in it by the size of the exhaust pipe. It's probably been overhauled a few times and modernized.
Fenders are easy to find and not too bad to ship (relatively), as are...

It's a re-make of a french film from the 50's called "Wages of Fear" about a team of drivers trying to get a...
Here's a few good things to read:

There's others...but that'll get you started.

I think Chains and/or some winching will work. Also maybe...
Wait...you have a 2 pin *cable*...oooh. Ummm...should have read your post more clearly.
I suggest maybe getting a NATO cable end and a 2 pin end from Saturn, and some welding 00 cable from a local welding shop and making your own. I've never seen a female-to-female adapter for slave cables...
