I picked up the same magazine. (looking for stuff for my 1972 suburban) It
was the "Best of the Best, 10 4x4s We'd Steal to Wheel" article. My most
UN-favorite quote from the M38 section was one of their reasons for wanting
it: "To prevent someone from restoring it". On the M-715 they never even
mention that it's a HMV. Oh well.

Later,
Brian
