I thought I saw spot for sale here recently but can't find it now. I'll keep looking.

As a child of the 70s this makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, like I'm on the floor of our living room on avocado green shag carpeting building a fort on a winter day to have my grill cheese sandwich and tomato soup in.

Tundra is long gone, sold it middle of 2016. Wish I still had it sometimes. Barn has my oldest sons CJ5 and my M38 in it. I do have a frame stretcher but it's way easier to start with an already stretched frame and shorten it to the desired length. The M715 bed is actually just under 8', I...

Jeep M715.

Oh hell yeah. That is one sweet ride.

Well, I just a deposit down for a 8' camper. Looking forward to not tent camping anymore as the wife and I are both 50 or older now and need sleeping arrangements where we're sleeping on something more like a bed.

And a much better chassis and power train than a Ford product.

Wow, amazing build you're doing. I used to drive and work on HMMWV for Uncle Sam when I was a young man. Never would imagine a cabover on one!

That was quick. Saw this rig at the west bound rest stop at Sprague on I90 once, it's amazing. OP, is this at your place up north? It's going to wet and sloppy this next week here in N ID with it warming up.

Nice truck. I have a soft spot for second gen Dodge Cummins as I made a lot of money off them over the years. I also owned one for a few years until I used it for deer hunting one July night on Highway 97 just north of Madras Oregon by the rest stop. It's in my back yard waiting for me to pull...

Ugggg, as someone who works on sweeper units from time to time I'm not sure you got such a good deal. How many hours on it? Miles don't mean much for something that goes 5 mph all the time.

Maybe his wife is telling him he has to get rid of it so he is "selling" it. Of course he can't get less than what he's put into it with parts and labor. I may or may not have done the same thing to appease the wife.

Wow, very very nice rig.

EPA put a stop to glider kits recently. You might be able to import it but more than likely the VIN will give it away as a non glider kit truck. https://www.smart-trucking.com/glider-kits/

Inside the mattress? A dog? What did I win?

If you want a commercial tire with all different tread flavors and can be found anywhere go with 11R22.5s.

You might be able to sneak it in and register it but the emissions stuff is a Federal requirement and if you got caught you very well could have it seized and crushed along with paying fines. It's definitely got a sweet powertrain compared to some of the newer stuff I work on. Like a 2008...

I've actually worked on one truck getting imported into the US from Canada. Had to go change the speedo in the cluster and then do some programming so it could be imported. The Canadian speedo was in KMH with smaller numbers in MPH, the big numbers had to be in MPH for it to be imported.
