kpu121265 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I have recently acquired a 1944 M10 Ammunition Trailer. From the manual i understand that there were a total of 22 straps supplied with it - to accomodate all the different loading configurations. There were 2 x Strap Assembly 74 " long with buckle, 10 x Strap Assembly 47" long with buckle and 10 x Strap Assembly 68" long with 2 buckles. Does anyone have any examples of the above straps? The trailer will be towed loaded with period ammunition crates behind one of the GMCs, or the half tracks or even the Sherman and it would be good to get the right straps for it. I can source a cover for it - but the straps are more elusive. Even some pictures of each of the strap types at this stage would help so i can see if i can find matching hardware for them.

Jim Clark Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I have two sets of the straps (not for sale) and hopfully will be making copys as soon as we can either buy NOS hardware or make it ourselves. We already make the canvas tarps with all the correct leather reinforcing. Jim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
