    69 M715 Navy

    Finally had a day off and took a couple of pics. This is going to be a long project for me as I seem to be a whole lot slower than anyone else on this site! I added this one to the vin registry on the zone and found out theres only 8 M726's there! As you can see, you guys were right, the...

    69 M715 Navy

    I made it home sunday, took some pics, then forgot to bring the stuff to work to download, sorry. I got to play around with her and Kwai's right, someone chopped the top off the box. Did a good job at that because I thought it was stock. There was a brass tag inside the battery box, I think...

    69 M715 Navy

    Kwai, Nice rig! Couple questions about it... What is covered up on the front left side of the bumper? I've got the plate there with nothing on it. Also I'm missing what I believe are tow bar hooks??? on the front bumper. What size tires are you running?

    69 M715 Navy

    I checked at the zone and there are only 7 of these registered. It also has the hood mounted air cleaner contraption, looks like something off a big rig! Is there a fording kit available for this air intake system?

    69 M715 Navy

    I am guessing now that it's a M724 chassis cab (with the braden pto winch) with the 6217 maintenance bed. Like I said I havent had more than a few minutes to check her out after getting it home. Does anyone have a pic of a 6217 bed? The left rear compartment is formed to hold some type of...

    69 M715 Navy

    My new rig is definately not the M726. The service bed on the M726 is a good foot and a half taller than mine, good looking truck though. I'll get some pics out to you guys if I can ever get home again. Thanks, -Osok

    69 M715 Navy

    It looks very similar to this truck in the attachment but with the top of the bed rails being at or lower than the hood height (if that makes sense). Hopefully I can get some pics up in the next few days. -Osok
