Surplus Humvees for Sale

[LBJ]

Lots of military surplus Humvees now for auction. There are so many, it's hard to take them all in (Gov Planet). Big problem is getting them street legal or no use having one, as far as I'm concerned. Wheeler Dealers had a show about buying one out of CA and did it up quite nice, but it was off-road only. I'm sure that show stimulated the market. Steel Soldiers has lots of threads on them, but certain discussions are banned, such as making them street legal and insurance concerns. These are selling for under $10K but there is an added 10 percent fee on top of that. Plus sales tax and transport costs. I've seen street legal Humvees sell for between $15K and $20K. There are a few of those around and may be the best way to go considering all the hoops you have to jump thru to make one street legal. Anyone bought one lately? Place down the road from me here in Texas is storing/shipping them for auction sales. They seem to be selling well. These are the older M998 versions. Newer M998A1's are for auction at other locations. Wouldn't mind having one, but I like to know the pitfalls before buying. Ex-military guys was they are nothing but trouble! haha. That might be the best advice/warning out there.
