Truck is home :]
 
3 Attachment(s)
it took a pretty good pull with a tractor to get it up out of the dirt and trees,found out brakes worked with adding brake fluid, then lifted the box back onto the back even found the proper mounting bolts. Cant believe how un touched this truck seems, considering the owner was a major tinker'r he just left this one alone for thirty years.

bad stuff,, engine seized on one cylinder ,fuel tank is see through, muffler shot, look at those mirors.

not sure about this m207 model , the box looks like a m135 , dual wheels are wider than the box.
full blown project starting today ,ill keep on this thread.

The M135 box had wheel wells, whereas an M211 box had a full flat floor. I cannot see the side of your box, but if it is for a M135, there is a likely reason. Most of the dual wheel trucks were vans, and the majority of the van boxes were retained by the DND for use as sheds or as field offices. The person who bought your truck may have only bought a cab and chassis, so settled on finding a cargo box from a M135.
