Yep.. The M211, M215, M221, M135 are all automatics.. M221's are kind of rare and it just might be one. If so its a shorter wheelbase truck than the M211, or M135's..
Some pictures of different versions and different trucks for your viewing pleasure..:-D
The manuals for the GMC's are for sale at Portrayal Press, Ebay, and probably some of the guys on here.. I have some engines for them up here in many phazes of life.. lol.. You can get NOS parts for them at real good prices too.. When GMC made stuff they were not slacking on the MASS production...
It sounds like the engine in the crate is for the early M35 type trucks made by Reo, Curtis Wright and others. I might be interested in that if you decide to sell it. Depending on the shape of the truck engine you might be able to save it. Pull the plugs and start soaking it with some Kroil oil...
Post some pictures if you can.. You have we wondering about the engine.. Does the one in the truck appear to belong there? If it has a drag winch on the back it probably has a PTO off the T case.. I would like to see the old gal. What side is the intake and exhaust on the NOS crate motor? Is it...

I will have a nice cab protector for sale in about a month if your interested.. Nothing wrong with it I just managed to pick up a brand new one in the crate.
At one time Sam Wiener had brand new tailgates for not so bad a price.. You might want to call them. The spare tire carrier and toolbox...
I am very interested but you might want to change the dates like DavidB said. Keep us informed of its outcome and I would help with setup and clean up.
There are some differences. And believe it or not the M543 motor has more power. The motor should be a LDS 465-1A in your truck. Those trucks are so heavy they just cant get up to speed. If it seems real doggy maybe change the filters..
I am looking to buy a set of INNER 5 ton winch extensions and a tensioner. I somehow ended up with two sets of outers.. PM me with details please.. Thank you..
I cant wait to see what you do to it. Where you able to find all the parts you need? Sorry for the post hijack Grounded. Maybe I should go back to you original M59 post.:oops: I just was curious and always think of it when I see your name.
