I just bought this truck this week. I'm going to put it in parades & car shows. I picked it up yesterday & took it to a car show. Here are some pictures. The last picture has my Brother's truck in it.

That is a beast of a truck, and is amazing and awesome. I am a bit jealous.

That's an M35 deuce and a half, isn't it?
A neighbor of mine has a huge collection of military vehicles including a tank! He has quite a few 'deuce and a halfs' and jeeps as well. He rode the tank in a parade.

I got it for parades & car shows. Yes it is a deuce and a half. I've been to two car shows already. I'm loving it.

Many of those war horses were equipped with a 'multi-fuel' engine that could run on Diesel, Home heating oil, Jet-A, kerosene, or gasoline mixed with oil. Might even run on moonshine!
I like that tilt open windshield! It looks like it has a 'snorkle' air intake to allow the truck to wade through deep water (shallow rivers!).

This one is strictly diesel. I'm taking it to a big car show tomorrow with my Brother & his truck. It should be fun.

I took it to a car show at Lancaster, NY. It was a great time. It was a haul from Niagara Falls to Lancaster & back. lol It took about an hour to get there.

I've heard that the M35's had a rough ride. Hope your keister is OK
