First Ride in M715!

[tmuenster]

I purchased this truck from the GSA last December and finally got her on the road today! I converted the brakes using the F350 wheel cylinders and added a dual brake reservoir. It has the original engine and it runs great! I am planning to add new canvas for the top and seats.

The dual circuit brakes are an excellent upgrade.

Thanks for the comments. I am very excited to get this truck out and about. I did get quite a few comments and stares on the road. As a friend of mine says, "You are the Grand Marshal of your own parade when you drive the M715!"

That looks great and I can certainly identify with that first ride. When I drove my truck for the first time in 40 some years, what a thrill. If you are on "The Zone", you may have seen the video that I posted of a friend who drove my truck for the first time since he was in Germany in the 70s.

A wonderful feeling and congratulations also!!!
