I scored a USMC M817 and a National Guard M818. Now I just need it to warm up so I can pick them up! -4 degrees tomorrow so it will have to wait a few days.

Those trucks looked like they were going to be a good deal until the official end time was up and everyone fought over them for an hour or so because of the 15 minute bidding rule the 818 needs the seat cushions replaced and has a tank full of four year old stale fuel.

If that's all it needs I will be happy! The M817 will need a few more parts but I thought it was in pretty good shape. All those trucks were selling pretty cheap till the last few minutes. I was hoping to buy the other m817 for parts but it went to high too fast for me.

I had a friend who was bidding on the 818 until the posted time was over and it was starting to go nickel and dime on and on but he said it had good paint and minimal rust or he wouldn't have had anything to do with it.
