I ended up with a M109a3. I started on this project for some one else and things changed due to medical stuff on their end. So I ended up with it. Luckily it's in pretty good shape. Just changed all the wheel cylinder, wheel seals and re packed the bearings. She runs great just needs some tires and some paint.

This one is going to a bit different from the M36. It will end up getting getting some air ride seats and some other comfort upgrades. No plans on the back yet but that will come soon once I finished the M36.

I gotta find the latter for the back and I'm gonna try and find a Whistler turbo to start with. 20190112_134711.jpg20190112_134743.jpg20190112_133016.jpg

Well one thing marked off the list already. I was able to get my hands on good take off C turbo. Finally was able to change it out today only took about an hour. 20190112_134549.jpg20190522_124344.jpg

Solid looking 'soopah' truck. And a great acquisition.
I would keep all the original internal electrics, no matter the conversion. (Nice show item).

(...Must have been offi' hard taking those pictures with the..truck 'turned over!' like that).

I'll be keeping all the internal electrical stuff that's for sure.
