Auction has just about ended, the military stuff is all sold at this point. The CMPs actually sold for reasonable money, with the CAB 13s doing better than the earlier cabs with one exception. Lot 626, which was an early Ford cab and chassis with a pair of fuel tanks on the back deck crossed the $2000 mark. Someone must have had an eye for the early one. This one was actually stored in Mickey's quonset, so some of the wood etc may be in a little better shape than the outdoor ones.
That early 8cwt body went for $126.50.
I picked up some small lots of parts, and I see George got his carrier wheels. I picked up a pallet of parts with an M37 PTO and one side of the winch bumper for $5, and another lot with heaters and an m37 exhaust system for $60. A big surprise was what tires went for. 60 year old M37 tires went for hundreds a lot. I'm not even sure they would be useable.
I noted a lot of things did not make it to this auction. Apparently, the auctioneer stowed two trailers of stuff away for a future auction. I'll advise when the stuff comes up.
