Re: Army/Navy/Fleet Order?

Just as any vehicle can be, GM did make 67-72's for the services, they were GSA vehicles,, not intended for combat specifications, but for everyday use. I have seen all kinds of GSA's from Aries K, Citations, minivans and I even own a Navy GSA 70 Burb. That was a great find and the SPID is pretty cool.

Pritch,
Did that truck come from AZ? Looks familiar.

CUCV's are pretty cool, I used to drive one in Germany and had one in VA, as posted above the services are getting rid of them, but they are still in demand in certain situations and you can still find them on most active duty posts. First truck I rode in was an old 880 Dodge. The only thing bad about the CUCV's were the Glow Plug system, we always had problems with them in really cold areas in Germany.
