Chris, will the truck be painted with CARC or Gillespie? Looks great!

I am attaching two pictures that show the location of the tank on the M931/M932 and the M931A1/A2 and M932A1/A2. I hope this helps.

If you get it for $500, you stole it. It is worth more. Work your way backward from what it is worth if it was running and what it would take to get it there. I bet that truck is worth at least $5K if it was running.

Actually, they were mounted in two locations depending upon the model of your truck. On the M931/M932s (NDCCs), the tank was mounted between the passenger side fuel tank and the mud flap. On the A1 and A2 trucks, it was mounted behind the cab as Joe points out. It depends upon which truck you...

I suggest you get it hauled. There are plenty of trucking companies. PM me for a list of #s. With all of these trucks being driven out, many without tags or insurance, driving these trucks out is a disaster waiting to happen. A couple of lawsuits later, and this hobby will have been changed...

My belief is inline with what a few others have stated earlier...if it is an approved military modification, I am fine with it. If not, it does not go on my trucks. That is my belief and I stick to it. I don't like bobbed trucks and I am not into modified trucks in any way shape or form...

Did you get both? I follow GL, and I did not see them. Interested in selling one?

Contact Idaho motorpool. Shipping will be pricey from anywhere else. I doubt you will find an NOS hood and if you do it will be costly. Just look for good take-out parts. Good luck!

Don, post the pics and prices for the M813s. They are going pretty high on GL right now due to ol' 8500! I don't want to quote prices, but the numbers I heard were very reasonable. Your asking prices sounded near what many are bringing on GL...except you got them home and took the risks!

I am not sure that it will add power, but it should. I do know that it will work fine, though. Kenny's old M275A2 that he got from me had a 5 ton turbo on it...and that was a screamer!

Thanks for sharing the pics!

Any pics? I did not see it because I am not in the market for a CUCV.

Check with David Doyle. I believe he will point out the following (or something close to it): Many manufacturers made trucks before Kaiser Kaiser made trucks up until some time in 1970 General Products made trucks until 1971 some time AM General made trucks after that I don't have the exact...

LORAX: Thanks for the explanation. It sounds like your plan makes sense.

KAISERPOWER: If your truck is truly a 1972 model, then it is definitely not a KAISER. It is an AM General truck. You may have to change your screen name...except that name is taken by Brandon. :-D No big deal as many of the trucks have come out with anything from incorrect years to incorrect...

Maybe the answer to this question should be obvious. If so, I missed it. Why go through all of this trouble to create an M813 when you could just buy one? HEADWIZARD has trucks for sale...or so I was told...and they are in VA. I am not sure what your time is worth, nor do I know what you...

Nice comeback GEM...DOC, any response?:wink:

Check with Ricky O'day on thist list. I believe he has a nice truck that is reasonably priced in PA.

You can't tell the age of the truck by the grill because it could have been replaced, but the earliest grills were the tubular grills. I like the flat stock type grills better, but I just kept an M814 with the tubular grill over one with the flat stock type....it was a nicer truck.

Whenever I wanted a new truck, my Dad, now deceased, used to say, "Why don't you pretend you did (buy it), but don't!" This saying applies to any 10 ton! I've owned one and they are not for the faint of heart. They are much cooler to look at than drive. Make sure you know what you are in...
