HI all the good news is it is finally here that's the end of the good news, the bad news is it is looking like it will haft to be a static display unit. The pics will show the worst things I found, there is a piece of the wrecker bed frame cut out with a torch and the deck winch tenensener is missing. The crane is missing a LOT of parts, the output shaft yoke on the transfer case for the rear axles was cut off. A lot of things in the cab are missing too, the engine I missing parts also some sheet metal items like the engine side covers. I can see that the military demilled this unit before it went to sale, the only silver lining to this is that the engine and trany are an off the shelf civilian item. The best hope to fix the rest is to find (cheap) an cargo one and salvage the crane and cab parts, also anything else like a spare tire. Some items how ever are m984 only.

Well as a famous news caster would have said "and now for the rest of the story" got it for 30k + 7,000 shipping, and so here it is.
I guess getting a restored value price idea or 2 would help me decide how far to go on work on it.
