1942 GMC AFKX Maint. Van
Found it on Ebay last night. Looks to be in great condition. So ugly it's beautiful. I would buy it in a heartbeat but the shipping to Texas would be unbelievable. Please someone save it. Don't know how to post the link but here is the item number. 320134256566

Nice truck....about 2 hours from my house...but alas with no employment I am shutdown from spending any money.
Dr Deuce and I have had contact with this guy. He bought it from the Southwest had it trucked to VT and had intentions of turning it into a "Weiner Wagon".
I kid you not...he wanted to make it into a lunch van/roach coach.
Nice looking truck. Hope it goes to a collector

The status with this truck is that it was bought by a person in Central Vermont. The body was removed from the frame. The frame and drive train were sold piecemeal and the body was retained to be installed on a General Motors 1 ton pickup truck (dually) frame.
This was over a year ago and I have heard no more about it.
Damn shame!
