This area is for ebay, Craigslist, GSA, Government Liquication or other auctions. It should include auctions for WWII trucks, parts, trailers, and directly related equipment and accessories, for CCKW, Chevrolet 1.5 ton, US-6, M5-6, DUKW, and WWII trucks larger than 2.5 ton vehicles only.
Two key phrases in that auction. "running when parked...Intake/exhaust was removed for another DUKW"
and
"Total restoration, hall(sic) bottom is rusted through"
Hmmm?
Just for your FYI.
When I was buying Amsterdam to Port Newark 40' containers (at about the same weight as a DUKW and heavily contract discounted) in the fall of 2006 the price was $4800 USD. The price to Chicago was $5600 USD. With fuel up 30% I doubt that the price has gone down.
I just had to ask what it would cost to ship it over, he said "Shipping from Jacksonville Florida to Amsterdam is around $2200 U.S. plus trucking $900 from Michigan to Florida" that sounds a very good price but still a bit of a dream really .
An no the better half dont know I was looking at it......
