HISTORY After being used on an air force base, the truck was given to South Portland Maine Fire department were it was used to fight brush fires.


The fire departmant sold the truck to Barry Moses, a military truck dealer in Brentwood New Hampshire. The truck sat on Barry's lot for several years, unyil I bought it from him in March of 1997. The truck had no canvas, or canvas bows. Several years of rain had taken its toll on the interior, but the truck was very rust-free, and had only 4000 miles on it. After adding a chevy V-8, I use the truck to skid logs out of my woodlot, as well as haul fire wood. The logs are sawwed by my father and the lumber used to build pipe organs for churches throught the country. When my dad runs out of work building pipe organs, he helps me add something else to my truck.

FUTURE PLANS A 10,500 lb. hydraulic Milemarker winch, tire chains, better headlights.
