I bought a truck military surplus truck this week. Hoping someone ex military might give me some insight on what it was used for?
It is one I've never seen and didn't know was sold to the military. I used to work for GM and am real familiar with the cucv's.
Here is what I bought:
86 K30, crew cab, rare single rear wheel, manual locking hubs, 350 4bbl, TH400, NP205 w/fixed rear yoke, 4.10's, hydraboost, dual tanks, ss dual exhaust w/o cats, front tow hooks, 12v but massive battery tray, add on dual electric fans, build sheet is marked "AIR FORCE LETTERING", and "FORM 99 INSPECTION"
It is USAF blue.
The neighbor has contracted work to the DOD for years, he said it's a runway truck for the crew of a USAF looking glass/eye in the sky?
Seriously???
