    Big box folk tend to put it on sale around Memorial Day, 4th of July and Memorial Day. But because they are big box they are moving away from dollars off to prepaid debit cards.

    Anyone ever exported a Deuce to Canada?

    I bought a few M35a2 from WA state auctions thru GSA.https://gsaauctions.gov/ They were ex-fire vehicles, and only came with a govt. title. No applying for an EUC in that case. I wonder if they would be easier to export.

Maybe internals might still be there but the sheet metal was bent & rusted and they all set on flats. I think they were pics from the ACOC registry listings. Later a relative of Sam Winer's...
