Anyone in the Indy area that can do a preview for me in some 813's they have coming up for sale on GL. I'll send you gas and burger money!

After talking to one of the fine members here it looks like a M809 series cargo will be the way to go for what I want since it comes with the better 250 Cummins engine with a standard trans. Thanks for all the replies folks. Great site!

Looking at a long bed manual trans but wondering if a 923 would be a better truck or if the 55 is just an earlier version of it. The site says it is a bigger M35 and that suits me fine. Also wondering how much its weighs

That info is real basic. Any other info.

I did a search but nothing about years and specs. Can you tell me what era is this truck from, what does the long bed version weigh, double frame? Any other tidbits you M55 folks can share. 923 vs M55...which would you buy? TIA

I consider myself Denver area even though I live in Scottsbluff NE. I work in Denver and would love to meet up with some folks that have an M35A2 to check out.

Have read some threads where the tachs and odometers have low hours and miles on older trucks and the trucks are in good shape. Is there a way to determine if and older truck was gone through and was there some scheduled rebuild cycle?

So did the part that was brought to the meet work on your gun mount? I would love to see pics of what that is to understand how it works. Sound pretty cool.

Looked at the M900 and M915....too big...too much truck and cost too much to license since I'm not looking to license as a antique or whatever.

Thanks for the replies. This is good info so I know what to expect when bidding on one of the few left. I don't care for the M35A3's since it has the auto and they are pricey to repair. I'll look and see what an M915 is.

Hi folks, I'm looking to get one of these fine machines for my farm because I'm tired of the gas truck I have never wanting to start when it sits for very long due to the carb going dry. Finding a parts pipeline unit to convert a regular one in the future is the goal but as I have found out...
