Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures, it's the best I could do for now. Had to have my brother take some using his Blackberry. As you can see it's cleaning up to be a sweet and very straight truck. Next I need to do the timing chain, valve seals, rebuilt oil pump and clean pickup screen, remove oil pan dents, get the carb back on, new spark plug wires and finish the mount for the air compressor. I know how i'm going to put it on, just need a belt first before I start welding anything.
On a side note, there's a guy here in town who may be interested in trading trucks with me. He has over 12 M35A2's and I told him everything about my M211. The chances sound fairly decent that we'll be trading trucks. My m211 plus some rifles for one good conditioned, running and driving Multifuel. Going Monday to talk it over with him and possibly pick out a new truck. Out of ten total, It will be difficult! If however he decides not to trade, i'll be continuing on with the M211. One thing is for sure, these G749 trucks are a lot more refined with better fit and finish than any M35A2 out there.
