Good catch, there is some discussion about the rain gutters in this thread about the canvas tops. http://www.m715zone.com/vb/showthread.php?t=30005Quote:

Good!
With all these details, I got to work.
I still have to install the snaps that I should receive tomorrow.
I have a new cable for the Braden LU-4.
The various MASSTER camouflage views (figure) of the M101 trailer that I have been preparing for months will soon be completed.
The cotton canvas used for the construction comes from a military tent from the sixties.
A little original side.

Awesome work man... that’s a good looking M715!
Looks great, nice to see none of the rubber painted, great detail.
Truck looks fantastic. Very nicely done.
Really turning out great! Keep up the good work.
Wow. You never seem to stop impressing everyone! Amazing work!
Thank you for your support.
Today I took advantage of the good weather to climb a hill.
There is something impressive.
I find the camouflage very effective.
The photo is taken two meters away with trees in the background located fifty meters away.
Imagine the reverse.

That's all I can say.
The Braden LU4 finally works very well and without leaks.
I used a castor-based vegetable oil for screw transmission, neutrality with regard to non-ferrous metals.

I preferred to restore a cable from the sixties.
I refreshed the ends, tied with wire then cut and soldered.
The diameter is 1/2 for a length of 164 feet.

Fantastic work :cool:
Two things. First make sure you oil the cable. The Army said that the cable should be cleaned and oiled on a regular basis. Second, is that a M882 behind the M715 or just a Dodge W200?

Well yes the M882 was a W-200 I just meant was it a mill truck M882 or a civilian not military W-200. Yours is an Army Truck!. Great work on the M715. I love the different color camo pattern that you went with. Great Truck!
