I'll take a stab at it and say try White Owl Parts Co. (252-522-2586) or Memphis Equipment Co. (901-774-0600) Both have been in the Military Truck business a long time, and have experienced people to help.

NDT and Tinwoodsman are correct. Looks like a metal WW2 era Ben-Hur 1 Ton trailer. Next, get a WW2 CCKW to pull it. Good find and Welcome Aboard.

Back several years ago, Barstow Truck Parts had an LDS 427 new in the can. When the owner John Rajacich passed away, his son just scrapped everything. To bad. Most of what I've heard about the LDS 427 is, most are old and they haven't been well maintained due to lack of parts, so they get parked...

I pulled the horn assembly to disassemble it, and as I was loosening the bolts up, I noticed that one of the tubes was about 1 and a half turns from falling off the horn assembly. This may be the reason for the odd sound that the horn was making. I'm going to clean things up and apply a little...

Finished installing a set of Lollipop lights, and sanitized the wiring for the turn signals and warning lights.

Well, here's my Wife's 1953 M38A1.

The military refers to the K53D as a Mobile Weather Station. Now the insignia (MWS) on the front and rear bumpers makes sense. This K53D is built on a 1942 closed cab CCKW. Here are a few more picks. The 1st is the Weather Station Interior.

Chaplain, this is the same vehicle as in my previous post except it's outside. This truck is a K53D according to the owner who is also a member of the MVCC (Military Vehicle Collectors Colorado). The truck came off the production line as a CCKW during WW2, and was then modified into a K53D. The...
