I regularly send Roadway, Saia, etc to GL locations for pickups. Make sure your item is palletized. If you have a good transportation broker you will not pay much for this freight.
If someone were interested in purchasing a hardtop (winter enclosure) for a deuce or M39 or 800 series 5 ton, it might be helpful for them to know that hardtops made for 900 series 5 tons (which are wider than deuce/M39/800 series) have a total of 20 mounting holes along the back of the cab, 14...
There a few threads on this, search "multifuel head gasket". It will take every bit of a day, and you need a special swivel socket for the injector side head bolts.
Once the air is out the lock ring can't fly off anymore. Get a duckbill tire hammer and swing it as hard as you can between the ring and the tire. Then get a sledge hammer and beat on the tire hammer until the duck bill hits the rim. Then remove the duck bill hammer and move it a few inches...
Or a pneumatic tire forklift. My 4000 lb Cat V40B does everything, from pulling engines from D-7 dozers to setting S-280 shelters on cargo beds. With a easily fabricated fork boom, a lift truck can do 90% of the wrecker work and a lot faster.

If it has a Jeep WWII chain drive flathead engine, the engine is worth lots to the MB/GPW restoring crowd. Could be over $1K for a super low hour engine.
Well the next chapter has been written, BAE lost the appeal today, it looks like thousands of jobs will go from Sealy, TX to Oshkosh, WI. This was breaking news tonight in Houston, Texas.
"Needs brakes" means 12 ea wheel cylinders at $30 ea, $60 master cyl, air-pack overhaul, brake hoses, wheel seals. Lotsa work to redo all the wheel ends. Sheet metal is not available new, you will have to find donor trucks or someone who is parting out. Plan on a new wire harness, all new...
Minimum $5K maybe 8 or more. That truck is a collector's dream find. Put the wheels on it and get some really good pics before you market it. Military Vehicles Magazine, Supply Line Magazine, Ebay.
