Thanks for the info rob. We will look at that when we start working on it in a month or so. The current tires on the truck are at 95%+, but sadly the side-walls are cracking from sitting in the sun all these years.

The truck will get new front fenders and a new hood. The floors are in excellent shape because it looks like they were replaced by the military before it was sent to surplus.

We are very surprised that the truck was not ripped apart. Usually these things get destroyed by the kids and other people (who take parts) when they sit in the back yard for many years. But this one was never touched. Even the seats are in good shape without a single rip. It still had the original paper in the windshield which stated the auction number and "......LSVW project" up in the right hand corner of the paper.

Here is a picture of the paperwork we found inside.

Would anyone happen to have a PDF copy of the 5/4ton manual, or a physical manual we could scan and put into PDF? Or even better, a copy we could buy (which we would also then scan so that others could get a hold of it)?

We are having a bit of a hard time locating one.

We want to start working on this truck soon, but would like to have the manual(s) to be sure of a couple things while putting it back together.
