I have some of the CFTOs for these bodies, and many more CFTOs exist for the re-vamped version still in use today. When the 5/4 tons left the system, the van bodies were removed at the units and shipped off to the federal pens where they were repaired and modified for use on the LSVW. The CUCV van bodies were sold off either with the trucks or in some cases, removed for use as smoke shacks or storage sheds, and later found their way out of service.
