Those things are pretty cheap to insure, and with that engine and crane, you could drag pretty much anything out and bring it home.
I've been shopping around for a one or two-ton truck, preferably with a small crane, mainly for getting MVs. My plan is to pay for it by renting it out on the weekends, a 'man with a van' service. You can make decent money up here making runs down to Edmonton or Calgary to pick up large loads (Especially other vehicles, since the used car market up here sucks). |

someone (Hugo?) went to look at this batch and said they were all pretty well cannabalized and in rough (rusty) shape...a recoverable tailgate on one, a usuable hood on another. but generally pretty rusty and well picked over
Id sure like to know the history of my Iltis as I know it was an SFOR jeep and served in Bosnia (VK base pass found behind speedo and other VK-bosnia documents too), was some kind of command vehicle (niner) but had no unit markings visible. #86158

SFOR or IFOR? Stabilization Force was a fighting element (such as Canada's was) and Implementation Force was an occupying force.
The sequence of bases is fuzzy, but Velika Kladusa / Coralici / Bihac / Zgon / Bosanski Petrovac / Drvar / (some little shithole further west towards the Croat border ...) / Tomaslavgrad / Glamoc etc. If yours has a VK artifact, it is more likely an IFOR vehicle. Yes there were equipment rotations, but I believe almost everything stayed in place with a new stencil. Getting back to the original origins, I would concur that these trailers and Iltises are ex Para school vehicles. They look very beat up, and would have finally outlived their usefulness as training aids.
