The Philippine Army (PA) is allocating PHP20 million for the
procurement of spare parts needed for the maintenance and repair of its M-35
cargo trucks.
The Philippine Army Bids and Awards Committee will hold a
pre-conference at 9 a.m. on Sept. 5 at its office in Fort
Bonifacio , Taguig City
Receipt and opening of bid envelopes is slated at 9 a.m. on
Sept. 19 at the same venue.
The M-35 started as a 1949 REO Motor Car Company design for
a 2½ ton 6x6 off-road truck.
This original six-wheel M-34 version was quickly superseded
by the 10-wheel M-35 design.
While the basic M-35 cargo truck is rated to carry 5,000
lbs. (2,300 kg.) off-road or 10,000 lbs. (4,500 kg.) on roads, they have been
known to haul twice as much as rated.
