Emiliano's Pics

Emiliano is from Brazil and sent the following info with his pictures:
I am happy to find a group that is as interested in the M715 as I am.
My truck is almost complete. It lacks a good repaint and the winch shaft. It has only 800 original miles ( no rebuild this is the original motor), and I am trying to keep it as original as I can, I haven't made any modification to it yet, and I hope I won't.
In Brazil, some claim that we have only 35 M715's, but I believe that this number is much bigger. But most of people make a lot of changes, like changing to other motors, or drivetrains. Mine is the only I know that is completely original.
Brazilian laws made me take away the original US symbols. But I asked for a permission in order to repaint them. By now I am changing some parts with NOS parts. Like rubbers, spark plugs, water pump, and my radiator, but the motor sound is great! It is still missing some details that I am trying to buy in US such as the tailgate chains and the winch shaft, I have also bought the wheel cylinders to change them all.
I also do have the 100 Amp kit , Troop Seats, cargo bows, and I am look after the deep fording kit. Here in Brazil is quite difficult to keep a car like this in original situation, due the lack of spare parts.
Yesterday I found three original trailers to the M715, I will try to buy at least one of them!
