New member questions about a M715

Does anyone have any info, or maybe even pictures, of any Navy M715's? I'd like to do a J-cab M-715 in haze gray one of these days, just wondered if they were ever actually used that way.

I have never seen any Navy marked up M715's I don't think. Haven't seen any Air Force Blue ones either for that matter. Most of us are either an Army color or USMC Green when the paint is done spraying.

That being said, I do remember a few conversations about Navy trucks. Just can't remember who, where or when. Sorry about that.

There was a guy kicking around one of the sites...me thinks he went by 'treepusher' and had a blue J-truck cabbed M715.

I was contacted by the Seabee's museum about making markings for a few M715s that they are restoring. So I assume that they did use some at some point, but I believe by that time period, that they were all painted od green and not haze gray.

Thanks for the info, btw, I was in your shop last month while I was flogging my TJ up at the dunes!

Next time you are up, make sure to say hello. I'm usually always at work.

Dont know if this helps, but it was original US Navy issue...

Years ago I had a 715 that was ex Seabea's. It was OD with SeaBea logo on the tailgate.

There is another thread with a Seabees marked 6217 with the box sawed in half.
