I think the cover of the Dudley Moore classic movie, "Arthur" said what I am thinking best: "Hey brother, can you spare $750,000,000?" :(

This build is just awesome, subscribed!

God I wish I could see something like that at a SS offroad rally!

Body sure could use a sandblast when you're all done. Plan to turn that into a replica of one of the few Vietnam gun trucks built on the dump truck chassis?

I heard the last of the Phantom QF-4 drones would be expended this year, and then that David-Monthan would begin converting the early F-16s and F-15s into Q target drones. Is this F-4 Phantom II above the last one in the target drone effort?

The wrecker bed will be a PITA to try and find, I doubt you will ever find it. Perhaps you would consider putting an early deuce bed onto it and making it into a one-of-a-kind truck to bring to rallies? Maybe putting a 5th wheel plate on it and make it into a tractor, as shown in the book of...

Value of an uncommon truck like that is hard to determine. And just because something is "rare" doesn't mean it's worth more either. What is it worth? What is it worth TO YOU? I've seen people hold onto POS cars because they have a memory attached to it, to them the car is priceless. A...

What's the NSN on the yellow sticker on the left?

If T-shirts are done, I'll take one 2XL. I'm still an XL, but sometimes the shirts shrink in the dryer and if they are XL and shrink, I'll never fit in it.

No title is no problem. International Title will fix you right on up, and for not much money. There are plenty of threads on this subject, and about the company. Most of us have had great experiences with them. Buy the lot for a package deal, and save it from the torch! Most of those...

I towed one behind my deuce once, never knew it was there....

Have a bunch of manuals of them, looking through them and it seems like a neat radio. 225 MHz up into the Gig-range. Anyone here have experience using one, that can give a basic rundown of its capabilities, pros/cons, and how you like operating it?

Look up the "what have you done to your CUCV today" thread, joediveguy has had a safari rack made out of heavy gauge steel, that bolts to the top rails of the cargo bed, before you put the cap on. It could handle 500 lbs easy. If I was going to make a safari rack, I'd go that way.

Instead of a new axle, perhaps just have the axle spindle milled a little narrower and use a new-sized bearing to make up the difference?

Just my two cents... The M151A2 was ordered in 1969 and the first units rolled off the line in 1970. While Vietnam was still raging at the time, the drawdown was well underway and I don't have any photos or details to say that the A2s were in Vietnam at all. I have plenty of pics of M151A2s...

I like the truck, the front bumper is a bit too much for me though, probably adds a ton to the front end wear.

I saw this on the CL near me, listed as a 1951 trailer. The pics are small and the owner hasn't responded to my emails yet. The trailer looks like a M104 but I've never seen one other than in a military manual (drawing), not sure exactly what it is. Anyone know?

You won't get much of a deuce or 5-ton in trade for that. Maybe a basket case, or a running farm truck, at best. You could trade TOWARD a deuce, but you will probably still have to have a couple thou in your pocket to make up the difference.

I'd say $1,500 to $2K. It's a good start, but will still need a lot of work to get presentable, or even working reliably. Cheaper you can get it, the better.

There have been a couple guys who made a CUCV variant out of a Suburban, with excellent results. I think a crew cab CUCV would be pretty awesome. Subscribed!
