    CUCV good starter vehicle for Resto/Daily driving?

    After consulting the great and all knowing CARNAC, the truck IS NOT in the Army data base. I'm thinking it's either USMC or Navy..... CARNAC suspects it might be Air Force. Thanks 1028guy.

    It had been on ebay for a while, it was at a dealership in Missouri. He was asking 10,9 for it. I got for 8500. Yes, I plan on keeping the top in it. She'll get a fresh coat of green paint sometime in the spring.
