    Next they just need to recover a new engine in a ravine that has WD-40 and fresh leaves and saw dust thrown on the camera side so we dumbass viewers don't know better. They are 'M-O-O-N',..that spells SMART!🤤

    For those questioning many things, as you see while watching the video the M715 was first talked about and rescued in episode 98. He talked about the M715 a little bit on how he found it and where it came from. As far as content being cutout that is because these are not the full episodes. All content and full episodes are found on Motortrend on demand. These are just sweet snippets that are dropped on KZread in hopes to buy the Motortrend on Demand membership to watch the full content. Thanks for your time on reading this. Also loving the truck.

    That thing is so sweet. Love the paintjob, love the new axles and wheels, love that tarp canopy y'all put on it. Plus, it has a great origin story! Fished up from off a cliff in a beautiful forest, and towed home with a custom Jeep Gladiator tow truck. Really gives off "military truck turned civilian" vibes. Not many vehicles that look quite like it.

    The cab is from the wagoneer and gladiator. The horn button has a cover to hide the civilian factory badge. The civilian curved windshield was dropped and a "plug" was put in curved area. The front end has all the mount points for the original grill. Would be cool to make a milspec wagoneer out of one.

    It looks like it had a rockwell pattern and there are so many different wheel options for that pattern there's a place where I'm from that will take whatever size tractor wheel you want and make centers with your bolt pattern so you could have steel 30 inch wheels on your truck if you wanted to and I've seen the dude cut some pretty cool patterns with a cnc machine and he welds the centers in there not bolt ins

    I'm building one now, the factory "everything" has to go. The M-715 engine is an OHC I6 and nobody supports it. The T case in a NP200, it gets hot and boils the lube. The front closed knuckle D60 is about as strong as a D44 on the short end. The Rear D70 has no locker options. Military stenciled " MAX SPEED 35MPH " on the dash when soldiers started hurting them. Mine is getting a 07' Super D60 front on a WFO Radius, the rear is going to get a 14 Bolt or Sterling. Engine is a 6.0 Lq4 with a 4L85e run with a FiTech system, the T case is a HD/AMG 242 32 spline from the H1. It's really cool but it was slow in 1968, 2020 it just can't keep up.
