Unrestored. US$4,900

Owner is keeping a restored half-track with quad mount - is thinning his
collection out. If you are in USA, check to see if a moratorium is in place
on importing US made armour back into the USA.

Other vehicles we have advertised in our Western Command Military Vehicle
Historical Society (WCMVHS) newsletter - "Maple Leaf Up" (now in 22nd year
of publication, I am the Editor), but which have not been gobbled up by
local collectors (which in the interests of MV preservation makes them 'fair
game' to other restorers/collectors I feel - and preservation of MVs is what
the hobby is all about). Condition and prices vary of course from poor to
excellent, low prices to high.
* 1952 M38CDN (3 - very early one, another dismantled, another roll over)
* M43CDN ambulances
* 1942 Willys MB (CDLV 505) (rusty & rough but all matching numbers & data
plates & electric wiper)

of a WWII German m/c design and is cheap!)

know where frame is)(high or low reversible CMP type lunette, NO leg, NO
