MILITARY
VEHICLE HISTORY IF KNOWN:
We found both the original OG green (U.S.Army) and Dark Blue (U.S.Air
Force) Paint on this truck when we brought it back in August
2006.The truck had been configured for use in Germany at some
time in its life, but this vehicle ended its military life in
England in the early 1980’s when it was sold as surplus from
the U.S Air Force .Since acquiring the truck from its previous
owner we commenced a frame up restoration which took four years
to complete.The
vehicle has been restored to original condition as when it
rolled of the factory floor in 1952. We chose to finish the
truck as a United States Marine Corps variation, which included
adding a full deep water fording kit and the distinctive rear
light/shackle mounts on the rear. The Vehicle is marked as a
USMC vehicle from the 1st Marine Division in the
early to mid 1960’s.
