This is my M207, cab and chassis with M220 shop van body. Was used by the Canadian Military up until the early 1980's as a field dental van. Inside it has a gas heater, hot water tank, sink, several cabinets, exhaust fan, and place for an AC unit in the left upper corner of the box (missing). It also has cabinets with drawers etc. all the windows have fly screens on them. I bought it in September of 2001 and had it shipped to me on a flat deck. I bought it in Ontario and had it shipped to Alberta. kind of like shipping from Pensylvania to Montana...long trip...cost more to ship it than the truck. It runs and drives fine but is low on power...can't get out of it's own way on a hill. I had it mechanically inspected before I plated her and it passed with flying colors...tough old trucks. Since I bought this one I found a neighbour, ten minutes away that had it's twin. Go figure i ship it halfway across the country after searching for a shop van and there is one a stones throw away...well i bought that one as well and the M135 he had to. More pics to follow.

RE: more pics...M207
Post some pics of the inside of the van body, I am wondering what setup this rig had for the dental office as far as equipment, furniture, etc.

RE: more pics...M207
The sight of those old drills with the pulleys gets me nauseated. Any of you older guys remember them? It wasnt til the late 60's that the high speed drills came out. What a difference. As a kid I remember the fear of dentists. No more of that now. Sorry for the detour, but if those types of equipment are in there, its antique.Hmmmm, 1952.... same age as me!

Now that I see your truck with the shelter on the back I can identify a couple of shelters that I picked up a year a go and use them for storage.

The last couple of years before they surplussed them out they were using them as smoking shelters.
