Aaaaaah!! Now THAT makes sense! Since mine was probably surplussed out in the late 70s or early 80s...
I guess that where it served before 2003 (when I brought it home) will always be a mystery....
Thanks for your time and attention on this! [thumbzup]

NAPA is great! My fuel line split open. Took it off and carried it into NAPA, Terry (the owner) asked what I had there and I told him it was a fuel line off my Tonka truck. I expected a smirk or at least a :cookoo: He didn't even blink an eye! "No problem! Do you want it the...
I just got a bunch of Diesel contaminated with Gasoline... Runs great in my truck! My wife asked if I shouldn't lock tank... I said anyone that want's some can have it... they won't be too happy if they try to use it unless they have a MV with an FDC though..... It's about 1/2 and 1/2...
Your right.. I'm probably thinking too much again :cookoo: I just find it strange that they didn't label it as an A1....
Oh well, my brain isn't working on all six cylinders... too tired...
Thanks everyone for your assistance on this matter!!!
Much appreciated![thumbzup]
That's what mine says. I will take a photo of it tomorrow. It's way too late tonight. I've seen others that look like mine, one thread " Resurrecting a M275 Tractor. HELP!!! " shows one that looks like mine but he has (or someone has) used the point of a nail or a knife or something to...

I also think it's amazing that the nearest S/N is only 3 digits off!:eek: Mine 165134 and your closest is 165137... or is this no big deal since relatively few were made?
I'm curious about the back ground of the 165137 truck...:driver:
Was just thinking that if the Stock No or NSN No 2320-00-446-247 is the M275A1 version, would it be logical that 2320-446-2479 might be the M275 version that never got the upgrade? It appears that this might even be an original engine with the turbo added to it... as it is an LD-465-1 which is...
WOW!!! Thanks for your time CARNAC!! you popped right in while I was thanking the other guys! :driver:[thumbzup]
Thanks for looking into it for me! Your time is much appreciated!
OK, now I understand it a little better...:???: Thanks for your assistance! Much appreciated!
I was expecting to get the normal grumps crying about not searching well enough...:roll:
I've submitted a CARNAC request.... hope he can help... I would LOVE to at least know where the heck it...
I'm feeling a little stupid here...
I have done MANY searches trying to find the "Correct" information needed.... Can't be sure I've found the right data...
I have an M275 Road Tractor. (This was my FIRST MV) Some years ago (about 8 or 9... I can't remember 'exactly' ) I found it in a back lot...
