There is one of the tractor version at a farmyard about a half hour from me. If I recall there was something different about the fuel tank due to the short wheelbase.

Did you kids see many of the M221 tractors in service? I've heard rumors of a few above Dawson but they seem rare. PM Coming.

Default Signal Line Maintenance Body

The Signal Line Maintenance Body did not have a specific M number but was listed as being on the M207.

Here is an image of a M217CDN.

John; I think you need a loading ramp... moving all these trucks around is resulting in lot of crane work for you ($$).

Wayne my wife wants me to continue using the cranes, I suspect in hopes that eventually something will fall on me and she can call the scrappers...

I wasn't going to post this up until the patent came through but this seems like a good time.

You can show this to the wife and see if she approves of the G749 coffin design!
