    Default Interesting find

    I have no idea what this is but I was searching for guage info and google found this link....http://www.sae.org/technical/papers/700014

    Maybe the original proposal from Kaiser to the US for the M715 as a replacement for the M37.

    Ditto "interesting"... I just spoke with one of the technicians today that was part of initial testing of the M715 in 1967. They test drove the vehicles through the desert to Panamint springs where Pabst lives now. This guy was so excited to see one that we talked about this testing for an hour or so. He said that the M715 ran great... except the engines didn't like the heat of the desert and had to be repaired and modified to withstand the heat. It would be nice to have one of those tested models...

    I have a copy. It is a very good read with lots of good info about the development and how it was upgraded from the civvy model.
