might check the classifieds here, ebay, a general google search, other mil vehicle forums..some of the commercial mil truck dealers convert rigs..find a M35 fuel tanker and do the conversion..check WA states GSA sites, GL, etc..lots of options, check this thread if you have time as it has alot of info and leads..

Good luck,

Mike

Start price: $500.00 / did not sell / no bids
ebay url (will eventually die): 63 deuce M44 A1 2 1/2 ton 6x6 fire truck: eBay Motors (item 320587220588 end time Sep-11-10 13:18:58 PDT)
no connection with item or seller..info only for Mil Fire Truck thread reference..

Description from ad:
This 1963 2 1/2 6x6 deuce M44 A1 has a 2000 gallon water tank with working pumps and hose reels. MFR Serial # M-65247. I bought the truck to build it into a hunting buggy and then decided to go a different direction. Truck runs great no leaks and the pumping system does work. Hose reel works and has all necessary hoses to put out a fire. The truck does have two problems. Some kids throw rocks & cracked the passenger side door window and the air brake no longer work from sitting. Other then those two items truck looks and runs great.

I had the opportunity to work on this 1969 Class 530B by American Air Filter at Dong Ha, Vietnam during 1970. I am currently working on a data base of Class 530Bs used by the Army and would like hear from 530B owners and those with delivery information on these old girls. Especially need hood registration numbers/manufacturer to develope the data base. If you can help on this project contact me by email. milfireguy@comcast.net

Many Thanks,

Ted
