XM711

[DDoyle]

Hi Guys,
I note that on the home page there is a link to a yet-to-be-posted report titled:

3-1/2 ton 4x4 Wrecker Truck, XM711, Jan 1969

This is one of the few missing pieces (along with the XM708) keeping me from completing my Dodge book (for those who don't know me, I have a pretty good track record of getting books done and published)

Does anyone happen to know the report number, or preparing agency, for the report mentioned above (so I may seek a copy)?

My email is ddoyle9570 at aol.com

Rewards available for info - bigger rewards for an actual copy!

Best wishes,
David Doyle

Hi Rick,
Great to hear from you.

Thanks for the info on this "report" - unfortunately, now that I know what it is, I know I already have it.

Nevertheless, drop me an email - we should compare notes on some things.

Thanks,
David
