Anybody seen anything else about this? All I can find is the initial article. I'd love to know what the investigation turned up. I know what I think happened, just wondered what the official word is.
Kyle, welcome from Atlanta. Looks like you have a basic M1008 there. I used to have one just like it, wish I still had it.
There should be a couple data plates screwed to the driver's door that will give you all the info. Have fun with it! Don't expect it to go very fast on the interstate.
Make your own ad here, vehicle wanted. Decide what you want, how much you want to pay, how far you'd drive, etc, then put it out here. You'll be driving a Deuce before you know it!
Hey everyone.
1973 AMGeneral M35A2C, White muli-fuel engine. When the power switch is off, the oil gauge reads 0. When I turn the power switch on, the needle jumps to 60. That's before cranking. With the engine running it stays at 60. Actually pegged past 60.
What's a good place to start...
Hey Armando, welcome from just down the street in Stockbridge. I fully understand the several projects bit. There are several M35's in the area. You'll like the M1028 as well.
Are you kidding me? The whole metro Atlanta area and you chose Stockbridge? Well, it will be cool having someone close by that can keep me motivated to work on my truck.
Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. I'm just a couple miles off Hwy 138.
Howdy and welcome from Stockbridge. I had an M1008 once, great truck wish I still had it. Swapping in a 700 will help with highway speeds, though I don't know exactly how much. One thing about the M1008, it will jar your insides loose. Never had any experience with the Blazers.
Papabear my DUKW looks about like the first picture. What is your final paint color? That's about as close as I've seen to the original color. I've looked for years and no one can tell me just what color/color number the original was.

Hi Rusty and welcome. Glad to see another owner of rusty DUKW parts. Mine is a '45.
Look for the VIN on the frame, right side, between the rear wheels. It will be stamped and start out 353 and have five numbers following. I'm guessing you don't have any of the data plates still on the dash...
