More M548 questions

1

Does anyone happen to have a 1:1 M548 in the back yard? I didn’t think so.

I think I have looked at every photo on the net, but can’t find any that show exactly how the cab canopy supports mount to the body. Are they flanged? Bolted to the inner walls, or simply fitted into bore holes.

I’m one of those nut jobs who starts out to add a “few details”, but then ends up driving myself crazy trying to make a 100% accurate replica.

Does anyone know of a 1:1 in the greater northeast? Do NG units still use them?

You guys are great, and I really appreciate any help you might provide.

Thanks. David

Frenchy, sir. I have always been in awe of your remarkable ability to find everything about anything, but being the direct recipient elevates that awe tenfold. Thank you.

At the risk of angering the gods of research, may I ask where that schematic is from?

What I’d really like to find are dimensional drawings of specific components, but my research abilities are obviously limited.

You’re welcome :wink: The schematic comes from TM-9-2350-247-24P
