Yes that's where I saw it. So I called the fellow (very nice guy). And we discussed the truck and by the end of the conversation I new I was going to buy it. The only difficulty was the transport out of Haynes Junction. Usually I'm not that lucky with kijiji stuff but it worked out and this truck is real nice.

when I worked around Dawson City 20- 25 years ago there were a couple more power wagons and weapon carriers around Callison industrial park . Whitehorse as well held some nice treasures , but they looked well used up. I imagine when scrap was high some went missing

Hi Wayne

That's the whole problem with all these WW2 trucks dodge CMP, or other. When you find them here they are all used up and the process to bring one back from that is monumental for the regular guy. That's why I feel so lucky with this one. Instead of having all the life crushed out of it years ago mining or working for the power company after the war it probably had an easy life with the Swiss Military then the local Swiss fire brigade where it was well maintained.
