Proud of the paint job too. $45k...... guess you are buying the paint job for $35k and getting a clapped A0 with over 13k on it rolling on Michelin maypops for $10k?

I don't get it - John Deer doesn't make a single piece on these trucks.

I mean just paint the pea green stuff to the proper OD Green, and the yellow stuff to flat black...
Boom you have a nice truck again! Still not worth 45k! No AC or nothing just nicely upholstered seats. But those look like the standard seats with nice leather on them however they probably have steel plates under the cushions and likely not very comfortable!

Be a good fit for a farmer with John Deere equipment

And the overspray….. they did not think to cover the engine?

FFA shop project?

I'm a JD Ag owner/fanboy but I couldn't agree more that JD Green just doesn't work on most anything except farm equipment. But it looked pretty good on their snowmobiles back in the day.

I love the matching snowmobile suit and helmet.

Back in The Day we called that a DuPont Rebuild.

Man that’s a special kind of special.

Well, you don't see THAT every day. I can understand if someone did this to their personal truck. I have a friend who is into restoring old tractors, especially JD. He even has a Deere mailbox. So, ok, a real fan might have painted it. But who would pay that crazy price? Some special person, I guess.

It's right up there with that pink and purple camo wrecker.

Good God they painted the inside also...

I think you just need to understand that no good decisions were made that day.

Maybe someone was drinking bud light that day

If it has a John Deere 6068 or 6090 engine they are light years ahead of anything Caterpillar had to offer.

Think I need to post some eye bleach of what a nice looking LMTV looks like...

Ugh

 

[glcaines]

They even have overspray on the gauges.

Gov. planet is a company* hired by the Fed. Gov. for disposal auctions. It is a for profit biz that folk can also list items on.
