They're hard to sell, America is littered with them and the ones on the Military bases are hard pressed to get $1,000 for one these days .

Here in New England there is a guy getting 7-8k for Cucv's in decent shape.

This is very good news as it means soon the hulks littering the Desert will begin to have value again .

I've been outbid on several that went for north of $4000 and a few non running examples that went for over $2500.

As an aside - the camo paint job had a "standard" pattern.

We had a body side hanging in the paint booth. As the vehicle came down the line the painter would refer to the pattern above him and freehand the same onto the vehicle in front of him.

If you could find some quantity of original paint CUCV's in the same place the paint job should be the same (or at least similar).

Re: Abandoned, neglected square body trucks rotting away...
 
Just 'rescued' a rotter this past weekend. 1973 1/2 tone 4WD. I bought it because it has a NP205 transfer case with 350 transmission.

The body is rough but it is complete. I believe it has a 305 engine. I need to get to the casting number. Wasp nests galore so the initial work has been slowed. LOL

I will try to post some pics tomorrow.

Scott
