    1969 M35A2 West Mitten

    I used to run my deuce across US10 to get to the Claire show for several years and never had a problem holding up traffic. Even pulling a trailer I was able to maintain 50-55 mph. The biggest thing with taking a long deuce trip is hearing protection and driver fatigue from all the vibration. It...

    Serial Number/Unit Markings for a 1953 Manufacturered Truck

    Yes, the 00132370 would be the correct hood registration numbers for a 1953 truck. The Alpha numeric system didn't start until 1954. I see it all the time with marking kits for M38a1's and M37's which had production runs across the years where they made the change.

    M715 parts

    I have a pair of NOS front fenders that I had been saving for a possible next project. I would be willing to let them go, but they will not be cheap. PM and I'll let you know my price. Plus I can bring them to Findley on Saturday

    Changing a M715 Tornado oil pump

    The last time I had to do one, I marked a tooth on the pump against the housing so that I could orient it once it was out of the housing. Then just matched the slot on the new pump and marked that tooth and slid it back in with no problem. Maybe I was just lucky, but it was no problem and timing...

    Installing Antenna tip

    If I remember correctly, there are two sizes for the antenna balls. Make sure you are not trying to force the small holed one on a bigger antenna. They should just slip on with a little effort.

    Facebook Seller

    There are a couple of easy things to do with these Facebook scammers, first click on their profile and look around. If they only have a couple pics and not much else, they are a scammer. Also you can check to see what posts they have made to the group, and if they are all for sale adds or...

    M56B1 questions

    Nice looking truck, the great thing is that all the main pieces to keep it running are all just standard M37 parts. Motor, drivetrain, brakes, ect are all fairly easy to find M37 items. Unique to the M56 is going to be items like the PTO and welder which look like are still with it. Definitely...

    An M715 and the mystery of the "upside down hook" (or, how to properly tie down your cargo cover)

    Yes, that was the intended design of it, to pull the front edge of the cover around the front of the box and overlapping the front section to help make a more weatherproof seal on it, especially while moving.

    Operation: Gertrude. Kendelrios M715 restoration thread

    The rank turned out great. I was worried how well the little details in the sling would turn out.

    Funny that this subject came up the other day here as I had just filmed an episode on the subject of bridgeweight plates for my Green Iron TV channel that came out today.

    Operation: Gertrude. Kendelrios M715 restoration thread

    Every manual I've seen refers it to "combined" meaning the combined weight classes of the vehicle and trailer and is representative of the weights of the two vehicles over the combined length and distribution between the axles. The numbers don't represent tons, but are weight classes from the...

    Here is the specific page on Delta Team Decals that has the bridgeplate kits, Bridgeplate (deltateamdecals.com) Note that this kit comes with enough numbers to fully restore a plate and is pretty reasonable for only $10 with free shipping.

    Amarillo is the font used on planes but does not seem to be used on ground vehicles.
