They were headed out from the cab, could have happened in it's later life as well, after it left the Army it was a civil defense truck and then went thru 2 owners prior to me
I have been continuing the teardown on my truck, started taking apart the bed and found these in the back of the cab, these are on the passenger side right behind the battery box.
Must have been a oh crap moment, can't tell exactly where they entered as the battery box was MIA on this truck...
What is a fairly complete(with cover) 105 bringin these days? I know they are not as common as they once were, saw one local and don't want to insult the guy when I make an offer. I was buying them for 300 each, or less back when there was a lot of them around.

There is one near me for sale, but he wants to sell the whole trailer and wants 1k, it comes with a top and bows too, do they really bring that much? I got my 101 from Warthog here on SS, I traded a rifle for mine:mrgreen:
