Default 10 ton cargo truck

Can anyone help me find a 10 ton cargo truck, i think its m-123 like the m-123a1c tractor. From what i could find which is nothing but toy versions of the truck. I could really use some help if anyone know where one is or just anything would be great.

10 ton cargo truck = M125
10 ton tractor(s) = M123




Good luck with your search.

M125 cargo trucks are very rare indeed.

There is a guy here on SS with an M125 who is doing a frame up restoration, his username is "Dirt71". If you do a search for his posts, you'll see some great pictures.

There are some other guys here with 10 tons, but mostly the tractors.

Actually,wasn't there never a cargo truck made?Only a tractor and a Prime mover?Since the M125 was technically not a Cargo truck but the tow vehicle for a REALLY REALLY big pea shooter and only hauled ammo and other gear for that BB gun.

Dirt71 has 2 M125s. One in the bare frame state and one more out front waiting for a spot inside.

well if ya ask olive drab they call it a cargo truck. but, they say the samething, that it was used primarily as the prime mover for towed 8-inch and 155mm artillery. Heres a link to one i found on-line.
