I don't think George is on this site. Google VERMONT COMMERCIAL SALVAGE. If you cannot locate his #, PM and I will get it for you (I don't have it handy or else I would post it here).

Mount Airy...as in Mount Airy, MD? If so, are they Ollie Davis' trucks?

CUCVFAN, don't you have a heater for sale? I don't want to speak for you...but I thought you had one for sale the last time I was at your place. Perhaps, you sold it.

I currently own an M983 tractor and I owned an M977 cargo previously. The cargo was an untouched complete unit as is the tractor. By the way, the cargo is pictured in my avatar. They are rare. Parts are around. My tractor is basically complete, but needs the motor put back in. I finally...

It does not get **** cold in MD too often :-D , but in the winter it is consistently in the 30s with some days/weeks in the 20s or below. I have owned several CUCVs and never once did a truck refuse to start. You may want to consider a block heater since it is colder by you. I know there have...

IF the seller indicated that the truck did not come with a title in the listing, and the buyer missed it, I'd say the buyer is at fault.

Beautiful truck and congrats on the recovery. With regard to which is better...a 1971 M35A2 or a 1966 M35A2...they will perform the same. However, your truck probably has a sprag instead of an air-shift front-axle. The sprag is just as good. It is possible that your truck was upgraded to an...

ARMADILLOFZ1: I like to believe you typed incorrectly. I hope you are NOT only interested in inspecting "IF I FIND SOMETHING THAT INTERESTS ME!" I hope the purpose was to help the original poster. However, the slight dichotomy displayed here explains why I was considering postoing the following...

The A2s DO NOT require 4 batteries. They must have left things that way for really cold weather applications. I, too, am running two batteries in one of my A2s and have never had a problem. The 8.3L motor is fairly small (compared to the NHC250, which I believe is about 11L off the top of my...

Randy, as usual, I agree with you. Most guys forget that these tires were not designed to be run over 60 MPH and, in fact, I have had Michelin XL 1400s that were marked 55 MPH max. I have also had others where I did not see that warning so I am not sure if it was the run, or if the warning was...

SPIN, welcome to the site and glad to see another Marylander on this list. Guys from this list get out your way regularly. I know that Pete (ORIONSPATH) goes to DE with his deuce and I visit OC frequently. Hopefully, we will meet up. Again, welcome to the site. If POWERHOUSEDEUCE does not...

Gimp, do we call you GIMP or CHRIS or D-BAG COLLECTOR? Just curious! :-D

Joe is a stand-up guy who you can trust. He and I have done business in the past and I would not hesitate to deal with him again.

I wonder if the Allison 5 speed has an impact on the truck's performance. There has to be a reason why they never went away from the CAT 16 speed semi-automatic in the heavier trucks (e.g., M916, M917, M919, M920). I know, driving my M917 empty, you are only in any gear for a second or two...

Gimp, do I really want it? If I do, I'd bid a dollar more than you.:wink: No, seriously...it would have to be worth what an M816 would bring. They are less desirable to the masses, but they are more rare and that makes them desirable.

Nate, where in upstate NY are you located? My parents own about 100 acres in Cherry Valley, about 45 minutes from Cooperstown.

Here are a couple more pics...

Also, be careful on undercoating. Most trucks with undercoating that I've seen have a sticker that says something like DO NOT STEAM CLEAN.

Don't forget to inspect every inch of brake lines for a leak.

Keep in mind that water flows across the floor of the trailer if it rains. Don't leave anything on the floor of the trailer that you want to keep dry. I have slept in an M105 many nights at shows. It is OK...that's about it. It is MUCH nicer sleeping in the back of a deuce or 5 ton.
