I would get the M35A3 because you are interested in bobbong it. And even if you do not bob it , it is already equipped with super singles, a cummins diesel, and added extras. They are many on sale now at govt. liquidation. If the M35A3 is to expensive try starting out with the M35 series...

Thoughtful, helpful, and greatly appreciated. Hoo Rah! to another great SS contributor. Getting ready to paint in a week.....

I prefer SS, but there is E-Bay, and a load of other sellers on the internet under M35A2, M35A3, or military truck sales. I bought ny first MV from e-bay , but if you have a nearby GL military base where you can actually preview the vehicle you may get a better price but a lot mnore work.

After removing all the rear internal oarts and pieces from the donor vehicle I had to re install them (after restoring the parts) in the finish vehicle. This is an example of the passenger side only. This had to be repeated for the drivers side and the entire cab interior as it to had no...
