G749 Picture and info thread

That really helps Dennis, with my shop van being 3002 and a 30-4-54 delivery baby it appears they built 139 M207's between March 26 and April 30, 1954.

I'll bust into the database we have on SS for the U.S. trucks

The frame stamp, data-plate serial #'s for our trucks will be 1207XXXXX.

I'm also reading that we may never find a frame stamped with M216...and maybe not M221.....There is documentation that the M207's may have been used to create these trucks so much more digging to do!

Generally the individual truck models were on a specific chassis

M135 Truck on chassis M133

M211 Truck on chassis M207

M220 Shop Van on chassis M207

M222 Water Tank Truck on chassis M207

M216 Dump on chassis M210

M217 Gasoline Tank on chassis M207

Not everything was well defined and some vehicles like the Fuel Servicing and Signal Line Maintenance were not provided with unique M-numbers so were therefore referred to by the chassis as M207.
