Not mine, no connection. I do want to know if I am off base by saying the seller wants about 68K too much for this truck?? It is really nice but, COME ON ......
My guess is this.(wife) "That takes up too much space for as often as you drive it. You need to sell that THING!" (husband) "OK, I will list it on craigslist today!" Hence the 80,000 dollar sticker price.

I'm pretty sure another G member had another ridiculously clean looking GTB listed a few months ago in New Jersey for something like $12k...I'm not sure what the going rate for one of these is, but my assumption would be closer to the $10-20k range like most other WWII MVs (with the exception of half tracks, tanks, war birds, etc. )
GTB Cargo has an arched wheel well in the cargo body. Chev 4X4 is straight along bottom.

Just need the width, but it has to be 20" to cover the tire on G-506/G-508 with same wheels and tires. Am still open minded for narrower Splash Shield, tho.

Joel, I think you meant to post this on the Mud flap thread.
