A Dodge owner sent me this as he is not member of the board.
Nice looking truck with a lot of potential.

The hoist structure is listed elsewhere in the auction

A couple of items:
M6 Bomb Trucks did not have front mounted winches. Either it was added or the truck is a cut down/shortened regular Chev cargo truck.
The rear crane assy appears to be missing
Frank Rosen* in Canada has the dash data plates (he copied mine)

upon further examination if you click this link he has a ton of other HMV parts and stuff for sale.
It looks like you can bid over the internet.

John are you going to take your new "Toter Home" out and pick this stuff up for us?

If you look, one of the other lots on the auction is what appears to be the hoist frame...

He is selling the hoist seperately?
I saw the winch for the hoist parts on a precious picture

They have broken the stuff up into lots.
There are some CCKW rims along with Dodge combat rims all labeled Dodge.
Unfortunately they are not tuned into the HMV thing.
Another thing I noticed it is an Internet Only auction but no shipping is available. That means you can't be there and bid but you have to be there to pickup.
I contacted them by email asking about this and they said it is correct. They do ship in their other auctions but they are new to the area and don't have the manpower there to ship. Doesn't make much sense and they sure have limited their available bidding pool. I would have bid on a couple of the smaller items if I could have had the stuff shipped.
So somebody from the area will end up with alot of cool stuff cheap.

Johnny,
We need somebody to pick up and store the stuff until we can get it or make shipping arrangements. It has to be off the premises in 3 days.

Bill,
That is interesting. It is up on ebay in a buy it now and has 4 bids on it on the other auction site which does not end until the 13th.
Looks like some sleaze-bag auctioning by the ebay seller. I wonder how long that will last up
