M207cdn
 
Just a query as to how many M207s are still around.

This is basically a M211 with a van body instead of the standard cargo body.

My reason for asking is that I have located one that I can get my hand on, just not sure whether I really need it or not, after all, M135 series deuces are a dime a dozen and I wonder about the collectabiliy factor...

If the M207 is a more rarer truck it might be worthwhile saving from the scrap heap.

Uh, you have seen the price of a liter of gas lately, haven't you?

Chris, IIRC, the M207 was a deuce and a half with barn doors at the rear, and a manual door at the right hand side behind the co-driver's door, but on the body itself.

This vehicle was, I believe, mostly for LADs.

I'm not sure what the purpose of having a manual door on the side was for...the Sigs Vans, of similar construction, didn't have that feature.

Is this located just north of Brampton, as in Caledon?

As Rob noted, it will only cost you about $250.00 for a fill up!

Hi Jon

No, this one is closer to me up north. You know I just hate to see these things get scrapped. Unfortunately , as Rob said, gas prices are way crazy and its does reflect negatively when it comes to owning and driving large trucks.

This is just one of many vehs I have scouted out and I still have to do some more viewing, afterall my first love is cmps.

Anyone in the market for a cutdown FGT???

Would that be this truck?

That would be the one. I am hoping to get down to see what all the guy has in his yard...
