I know the Army used commercial "off the shelf" CJ-5s here at Ft Sill as late as
the late 80s, early 90s. A friend of mine bought several at a DRMO auction and
was given full paperwork (Form 97) to title them. They were all a dark gloss
green, not really OD.
He sold them off and made good money off of them. Unfortunately, I was in Germany
at the time or I would have bought one myself. I saw one when I was home on
leave. They were pretty clean jeeps. Would have made a good daily driver.
