Not sure what a 353 is but try sending a PM to Jeff at Junkyardreams (sp?) He is in Denton, Md. and has quite a large selection of trucks and the like to part out. About 45 atlast glance.....
You need to contact the red ball in PA . there are some members on this site, they can lead U there, They are the biggest WW2 truck guys around that I know of and are on the east coast...
You are in PA Do U know of the Red Ball, Bob Rubino is the formost expert on such a subject, and a lot more also, He also is in the MV mag, Mil Spec restorations,U will find all U need there, There are Red Ball members on this site that should help get U there....
I have many discussions with guys from the red ball and I chose not to associate with them.
Evidently asking the 'anointed ones' questions is heresy and not to be tolerated.
Even when I post the TM/WDC that explicitly stated word for word what I was saying.. on more than one occasion I was told I was *still* wrong and so was the TM (all 5 of them, plus a Manufacturers bulletin and two privately written books).
So even if they told me it was raining out side.. I'd still look out a window because they have no credibility with me.
