The interesting thing about this manual is that it lists the M218 Light Wrecker Truck but there is no picture of the M218 in the manual. I have been in this hobby for quite some time and have owned a number of The M series GMC 6x6s but this is the only manual that I have seen that mentions the M218. I wish I knew how to post pictures on this site. If anyone is interested I could scan the cover and send it to you.

Quite often the manuals were slightly modified reprints off the American manuals. After all, why remake the wheel from scratch when you are still going to end up with a wheel? I suspect that is why the Cdn manual has reference to the light wrecker.
