Postwar busses ex-military Holland

[Bill Murray]

Well I'll be damned!!!!!

Hard to imagine those vehicles "soldiering on" after so many years and other than a few bumps here and there, they look almost new.

I know from visiting some of them in the 1970s and 1980s that Holland was/is famous for their "AutoDumps". In the mid 1980s, I and some fellow managers at SAAB's US headquarters purchased a number of vehicles from AutoDump Sindorf with which our dear friend Bart Vanderveen was then associated.

A NEKAF Jeep, a Land Rover, a Taunus ambulance on the military side and a Mercedes 220, two Citroens, a 2CV and an 11. As far as I know, all of them are still running up in the Connecticut area of the US.

I must think based on your half track story that such AutoDumps still exist and still cater to not only collectors but also those companies that still find such vehicles useful.

Thanks so much for the link.
