Well you gotta know people that know people and be one heck of a person that knows how to barter I'm also getting 32" allterrains for my truck outta the deal 80%tread I can't explain how I do it i just have a gift I guess.

VERY NICE, JACK! That ought to be a lotta fun!!

You can usually find stuff like this on military surplus sites and I use!lay go to eBay and search thru the military vehicles.

that brings back memories. i had to rebuild one of those when i was stationed at ft ord. i worked on that thing every day, putting new parts on, only to come back the next day and find them all gone along with a bunch of other parts. i almost got into trouble over all that, till one of the dispatchers came out and checked the work that i did and then seen everything stripped off the next day. kinda funny looking back on it now, but at the time, i was looking at uniform code of military justice........yer guilty till proven innocent. great truck, have fun with it.

ill post pics up tomorrow evening but i commited the truck to the er since it had a donor card.......(hint hint)

need less to say only thing left on the truck is the saggy leaf springs the bed and cab frame and a ton of scrap metal......
