1. Appears to be a turbo, (my best guess) but you can't actually see the
turbo unit in the picture.
2. Does have an airshift transfer case.
3. LDT465-1C or LDT465-1D. You have to look at the ID plate on the engine
to find out which. The difference is negligible (extra-hardened valve seats
or some such thing).
4. Can't tell without the VIN. It appears to be fairly new, like 1970 or
1971. I would guess that it is an AM General just from the general
appearance. It has (or has had) the AM General grab handle on the hood.
5. It looks like it has an automatic ether injector for cold weather
starting. It also has a cab heater. The last Modification Work Order was
completed in Sept, 1990. It does have a complete cab bow set for the
softop. It has West Coast mirrors with spot mirrors implying a later
production truck.

Subject: [MV] Can You ID My New M35A2 Truck?
Hello All...
I can't believe how helpful the folks on this list have been in the
last two days! I have gotten lots of great advice on my new M35A2 and
even scored a pair of CUCV bucket seats!
Anyway, I was just talking with a guy from this list on the phone and
he thinks that my new M35A2 may have a turbo and an air shift front
axle.
So I need help from you.
Can you take a look at the truck on eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=591572881&
r=0&t=0
and then answer the following questions?
1.) Does it have a turbo?
2.) Does it have an air shift axle?
3.) What engine does it have?
4.) What year is it?
5.) Any other interesting features of note you see?
If you want to answer directly via email to avoid list clog, that's
fine. I'll post the final consensus to the list.
Thank you!
