(Due to the "No Auctions" posting rule I could'nt post this untill after the auction).
Someone bought a HEMITT at a town surplus auction for $15,700.
Hard to understand the description but it sounded like the engine had been removed and put into another vehicle of some sort but was included in the auction after it was removed from the vehicle??
The auction had 2 main bidders that kept outdoing the other.
Included in the auction was a few M1009's that sold for a few hundred to a couple thousand $$.

Yeah, the wife wanted it, but it went over our current budget. I guess we will get new windows and siding this year, instead. It was a rare truck, I hope it gets put back together. It needs an engine, but was a running and driving unit before that.

What I want to know is how did that get here in NY? HEMTT M983's are used for one thing, and one thing only. Towing Patriot Missle Systems.. And all the Patriots in CONUS are in NM, TX, and AL. So that truck traveled along way to get to NY.

You don't suppose there were missiles in NY? Near the Canadian border, do you? :roll:

What's that French APC, doing in Syracuse?

After 911 did they not put those around the BIG citys???And as for the distance if it was not there all ready, My XM818 was in a NG unit in the NE and I got it from OKC. So go figure. My vote is for chris or BK??

Rumor has it that MTV purchased the HEMTT and it will appear on multiple episodes of PIMP MY RIDE. P-Diddy will be the final owner and most likey join Steel Soldiers and buy this site from Chris!!!
