Division Ordnance Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Greetings from the United States. I am interested in hearing from other owners of the Cab Over Autocar U-7144-T. I am looking for a cab bow for the canvas and original data plates. I would also enjoy hearing from others regarding their restoration and operation. Best regards. P. M.

dogtags Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 You don't happen to have the one that used to belong to Frank Buck do you? Military Veterans Museum and Education Center will be buying one soon. John K (Captain Crank) in MN has a few and might have examples you can get measurements off of. ~Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for a trailer.... Ahhh... Wondered who got her. We were looking at that one, but decided not to bid on it due to us not being able to go down there and inspect it. What kind of shape is it in? In case you don't have a manual for it, you can download one here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iatneeo1gicevn2/TM9_816_1944.pdf No leads on a trailer that I'm aware of. ~Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
