You are bidding on a rare solid 1977 4X4 Dodge Military M885 1.25ton Dodge pickup with a 318 V8, auto transmission and power brakes. 15.5k actual miles. There are no rust holes in this truck and even the battery tray is nice and solid. There are some holes in the bed for the water tank hoses went. I have the maintenance records and the goverernment documents when the truck was purchased new in Oct-1976. Here is the Nomenclature breakdown: Cargo 4X4/M885/ Chrylser Corporation. Model: W200 Manufacturer serial number: W24BE7S034975 Registration number: NGOJRW FSN or ACVC number: 2320-00-579-8989 Vehicle curb weight: 4790 Payload Maximum: 2500 Gross Wt. rating max: 8000 Date of Delivery: 10/76 Warranty: 12mo-12kmiles Contract number: DAAE07-75-C-0141. Yellow stickers are: Federal property fire use only 88-245. Truck comes with a power steering conversion. I have a new $300.00 correct power steering gear-box that will go with the truck. The power steering pump is already on the engine and I also have the double belt pully and power steering belt. Right now the truck is manual steering. There are some dents. Runs and drives good, transmission smooth and strong and 4X4 works great. Has a brand new carbureter and fairly new battery. Glass is crack-free. Tires are matching set and fair shape. Lights work and guages work as well as odometer, speedometer. Has a very long fuel tank. When tank is full, the fuel gage only registers at half mark. The M885 is rarer than the M880 which has more leaf springs in the rear thus raising the rear of the truck higher than the front. Reserve right to end auction at any time. Serious bidders only.
