If I recall correctly it had brush marks in the paint. I don't know if that helps you determine how old the paint job is.

Date of manufacture on this truck was 9/83.

If you are interested I can get a price for you. I think there are several in similar condition at this place.

Will the convoy take place in 2014? Never done it but it looks fun.

I know they existed. More than likely there was limited amounts painted in this scheme. Anybody else ever see any or have photos of a CUCV in four color MERDC camo?

There was one on Craigslist in Charlotte recently. It was overpriced in my opinion. But I don't need one. I think it was $750!! You could also check with William @ Delk's in Asheboro NC. I know they have some parts trucks but not sure if he has a tailgate or not.

Another thing I like is that you kept the stock rear springs which keeps the overloads. What color of green you going to do, 383?

Sweet build!! I like the size lift you went with. Not too big that you loose the useability of the truck. Big enough that it gains a little beefier stance and taller tire for the road. I think you can't go wrong with either color.

I have seen at least about half a dozen of those tops. All the ones I saw were the old camo pattern. I know where one is/was for sale. He wants $800 or $900 for it.

Cool! I am looking forward to it. I have been checking back often to see if you have updated. I know you have been gone to a couple of shows so I figured you haven't had time to do it. Thanks for what you do!! It is a great service to MV owners.

What was the final weight? Finished pics? Nice job!!!!

Thanks CARNAC!!!! Hope this isn't too many vehicles. I edited and added the second NSN number as the first is actualy FSN number and I read that the NSN number is the same but you add the two zeros in. I hope ths isn't confusing for you. M715 a. 10065 b. 3F2703 c. 23209216365 or...

Stinks cause I had it all envisioned in my head. Trailer body for a bed. I can get one easy. My buddys dad has a few 105s I could have got a bed from him. I know of someone who put one on a F450 or 550 and it worked great. Od paint or camo. Oh she would have been a sweet old truck. Ahh...

Just missed this W400 on GSA. It went for $696. I just couldn't do anymore based on my cost to pick it up.:roll::sad:

I have seen active duty pics of mules with tires that had the tread with square shoulders. So I would say they are correct. I wonder if they did start to use the style with less tread later on due to wear and/or breakage problems.

Looks great! That was a full days work. What did they charge you to use the paint booth? I never thought of that, good idea.

I just copied and pasted from Olive Drab site. They are links to some other stuff and I guess that is the problem.

Taken from Olive Drab site: Truck, Cargo, 1 1/4 ton, 4x4 M-880 CUCV The M880 series trucks procured from Dodge in 1976 and 1977. They were equipped with a 150bhp@4000rpm Chrysler 318 V8 gasoline engine, automatic transmission, disk-front/drum-rear brakes, and a 12/24 volt electrical system...

And a WWII Bofors gun, too! Almost forgot about it.

He had two mostly complete Hueys sitting out front last time I was there.
