Well I done did a thing.... a very very good thing

Put a deposit down on a 1982 m923a1 today reads 1800 miles on the clock since the Kansas rebuild in 2012 really sharp looking truck, soft top no cargo cover or bows and no troop seats. The truck cranks strong fires right up builds air pressure everything seems really good on it. Looking to take delivery in about a month...

Added a photo for yall and I'll get more up once I get to my work computer on monday

First 5 ton, and First MV as well, comes from a member on here, not sure if hes active anymore, only spots of any noticable rust i can find is on the fenders where they come together... other than that the truck is practically brand new by the looks of everything

Congrats on your truck!
Call or text CSMDavis (his PM box is always full) 601-264-3453. He has the bows and cover kit new-old-stock still in the crate. I bought one from him for my truck.

Congrats, do yourself a favor and replace the fuel hose from filter to injector pump if it has any dust on it at all. Nice looking truck. Enjoy

Nice truck, check the oil filter configuration, I stock the spin on oil filter adapter/filter kits. Real nice add on , saves time and $$ on future filter changes.

Thanks I'll check with him not really in the cards right now but definitely something I want to do soon

Yeah I need to check into fuel lines, little wet post filter

Already has spin on oil filters... they are oriented horizontally I figure would make more sense to get a remote to run them vertically

Did you get the truck home?
unfortunately uncle sam decided i didn't need a 5 ton and "Offset" my tax return so heavily ($8200) i cant come up with the cash at this time, still trying to see if i can figure out a way but doesn't look good so i guess i will be out $500 on the deposit and learn another life lesson
