That's a neat looking truck. You don't see them everyday nice score. Your truck is alot like mine they both need a little love but are completely restorable. That is to be expected since both trucks are pushing 60. If I were you I would try to sell your truck to someone who wants to restore it...
HI I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find a complete exhaust or pieces for the Reo OA331 engine. I can't start my truck right now without my neighbors complaining. I have nothing left of my exhaust except the manifold. Everything has rotted away due to the fact that the previous owner...
Hi I don't have any manuals but you may want to check with your local Mack Dealer. I believe the ENDT 673 engine was also produced for their civilian trucks with the only difference being the oil pan. M39's have a step in the oil pan to clear the front differential. The military also used 24v...
There is a local scrap yard around me paying $16.50 a hundred for cars and trucks. It's hard to get a good deal on anything. As for the elevated prices at the auctions I think people are just finally realizing how awesome these trucks truly are. A few years ago muscle cars reached record high...
I was wondering what type of wood was used to make the cargo racks and troop seats? I assume a hardwood was used. I can't tell what kind of was used on my very weathered racks. I'm trying to keep my truck close to spec as possible. Thanks for the help.
I think the truck my co-woker is talking about is a Zil 131. He can't tell me any specs, there is a language barrier and his english isn't very good. He told me his was orderd to drive and he did. Oddly enough he drives a tractor trailer for our company. Any way the focus of this thread was to...
My co-worker is originally from the Ukraine, however he could not or would not tell me the manufacturer or the model of truck. He couldn't tell me any specs about the truck either. The only thing he could tell me is the truck was a 6x6. He also kept laughing at the pictures of my deuce telling...
This post reflects a conversation I had at work the other night. I was talking to one colleague about my deuce and he commented that the Russian trucks he used when he served in the USSR were superior. I was wondering if any member has has had any experience with the deuce and their Russian...
Hi I was wondering if any member might know the total production of the Reo M34 trucks? Were there any M34s converted to M35s or were they left alone? When the M35s came into production were the M34s surplussed out, or did they serve together with the M35s? Does anyone know when the M34s...
Hi I'm new to the site. I just recently purchased a deuce that I believe to be a Reo M34. I was hoping that someone would be able to confirm my suspicions about the truck. The capacity plates are not legible anymore. My truck needs some love after sitting in a field for 5 years, but with...
