Judging by the little rectangular pan mounted in pucture 8, I'm gonna say ex-fire truck? That was a mount for a 6 volt flashlight in the early 70s. The ears were where the hold down spring was anchored. Thanks for the pics!

Sweet rifle holders! I gotta make that! Remington 870 12g and a 7600 30-06 Where a I gonna put the .22.....

Hor about tossing us some pics for our viewing pleasure?

Thanks for working with us on this. It is exciting every time we get to see a new picture or new way of doing something. Keep trying to post the pictures. They did not load into your album. Try loading them onto your desk top and then upload them to the forum. When you are typing in this window...

I'm going to get more pics early next week. Just turned colder. The workmanship is "not too bad" on the single axle conversion. Some of the planning was great. Brakes are flawless. spring mounts were like they could have been done in a factory in the 80's, but then there is the choice of axle...

Spiffy little heater works off engine coolant. :)

I aquired this truck on a trade this morning. Thought the hardtop was worth posting. Looks to be custom made. 2 side panels cut to shape made from 16-14 guage steel and a top wrapped over oit of what looks close to 16-18 guage. I'm unsure of the exact thicknesses. These are only estimates. looks...

Stan Leshert posted this on a thread earlier this week. I found it helpful. "The TMs live here! MilitaryTrucks.ca Website - M135" I downloaded the "Installation of the personnell heater kit (hot water)" It is interesting. Shows the hot water heater mounted on the inside of the engine...

Great truck and good quality workmanship Oldfart. Thank you for the pictures. What is mounted to the front bumper on the passenger's side?

It was mounted in a cab when I got it. It has only one coat of primer and 1 coat of white paint that matches the back window panel of the top. I assume it may be from an aftermarket winter kit???? Mine is a little different than yours.

MWMULES, thanks for turning the light on for me too! I just peeled the same hard stuff out of my cab.

Here is a picture of a home made hard top. It is a standard ragtop frame with some 1x oak cleats screwed to the front and side panels with a center rib running front to back. The back and top are 1/4" plywood. The entire exterior is covered with glass mat and resin. It was very strong. I could...

I believe the the M133 may have been a Canadian kitchen truck or a US single wheel cab and chassis much like the M135 only without a bed. Does it have a bed or any angle iron brackets to mount one? Is it US or canadian? Maybe someone else can shed some light on this.

Thanks for the picures Jasonjc. What material is the roof made of? It looks kind of thick in the pictures. Is this on a M135 or 211?

I'm told there is a GMC heater that used the hole in the Left side of the hood?

While we are trying to use our hands to thaw a tiny spot to see out of. You never realize how much moisture exits your body thru your breath until you cough in a M715 ragtop driving thru a wisconsin intersection at 50mph, and then you realize how fast it freezes on the windshield.

Here is my heater. Very simple. One wire fron an on/off switch to the enclosed fan. It bolts to firewall. need to drill a couple 1" holes for the nipples to pass into the engine compartment. # 1/4" studs secure it to the firewall. It hooks up to 3/4" heater hoses. It looks like you close the...

My hardtop Windshield frame and cab back panel. The cap is green and the back panel is white. They were poth primed and painted as pictured. No olive drab anywhere. I assume they must have been after market???? I have seen one other exactly the same in a picture once. I wonder who made it. There...

Please share pics of your GMC HARDTOPS and HEATERS! An appropriate request from a Wisconsonite as we head into late fall. I have only seen 2 different heaters so far, both this week. Seems to be quite a variety of hardtops. Let us see what is out there. Close ups of corners, curves and seams...
