Hi Howard,
The GMC is fairly complete - missing fuel tank, right step, spare wheel holder. It does have some floor rust, a little in the right guard, and some where the floor meets the side panel on the drivers side. I will also need another windscreen frame as the original has rusted through where the hand made roof was joined on.
The truck was moved to Londonderry - 50k west of Sydney, to start the resto. I need a friends crane to swap the tanker body out with an original cargo to suit the GMC. I hope to run the motor up on the weekend. I can't drive it as the brakes have ceased to work though I may risk a little drive as the hand brake still works ok
.
The reason behind asking about the M211 is that I'm after a post war military truck suitable for a wrecker body to use as a recovery&yard crane. I origanaly had a later M series truck in mind but I saw your pictures and began to wonder....... it's a shame to see it just sitting there. The next question is it for sale?.
Regards,
Brett.
