Looks pretty straight from the pic-thats great
Congrat's, it looks like it has the original paint on it, no guess work on the micky body work fix's somebody made. What you see is what you get. Very cool!, Rip and Grind !
That looks awfully similar to the truck located near Windsor, CO I mentioned to you a while ago. If it's motor-less and has signs of a previous drive train modification (like cut cargo box for a drive line), and a box full of fender parts and troop seat pieces, then that is the truck. I was over on the busy side of CO a few years ago and stopped to see that truck. The owner got all bent out of shape when I made him an offer after sharing my assessment with him. Maybe I softened him up a bit for you ryanroo.
When you had previously mentioned your modification intensions for a M715, that's the truck that immediately came to my mind. If that is the truck I'm thinking about, congratulations on your purchase. Other than a few dings and some minor holes drilled into the cargo box, that truck was pretty nice, as it didn't have any rust problems.
I really like it. Congrats.
That's awesome, seems there are a few newer members picking up trucks and starting repair, rebuilds. I think it's great, seems like it's been awhile since the Zone has seen this many new people. Keep up the picture taking and all and any mods you decide to do. I love pictures.
i think its the same one. no engine, and i will have to repair the cargo box... oh well
he mentioned that he was from michigan. you are right, its about perfect for what i want to do. not all original, but still has that appearance.
its in the driveway now, and that was a long day. bayfield to loveland and back to bayfield. i am pooped and i have to get up for work in the morning, so i will have some more pics later. but, markness already knows what it looks like, so it won't be as cool for him
i also found another M715 on the way today that might require further investigation

what size tubing did u use for the cross member under the engine. I'm a rookie at fabbing but I figure its time to learn.
it is 1.75" .120 wall DOM. it was an easy part, two bends in identical in the same plane.

67 #18820 mostly stock...
