What can one expect to pay in the North East or East coast for a 3/4 ton
M101A1 US or CDN trailers with racks, bows and top? Are they fairly common?
Are the CDN more desirable than the US version?
I know the A2 versions are the more desirable than A1 due to the surge
brake, but are much higher priced when/if found.
Same questions for a M105A1 without bows or top?
How about a used Vinyl top for a M105?
M100's? Are they still out there to be found or is the well pretty dry?
What is meant by "Average" condition?
I now know the condition stated in the ad 'CAN' be next to useless.
Regarding WWII 1.5 ton Chevys, I have learned that the terms "All Original",
"Restored" and "Parade Ready" mean :
A) In Maine, the truck is in a field, hasn't moved in 8 years, requires
a tow bar to move and has a home made cargo deck made out of rotted 4x4
lumber with a 5 gallon gas can on it connected to the carb by rubber hose.
B) In NH, 30 foot rule applies, rotted Civilian cab, painted OD green
with stars, mixed rims, civilian lights and plow.
Haven't traveled to other adjoining states yet for viewings, but the
expectation bar is set pretty low.
TIA, Ron
