Unusual CCKW on eBay

Post by armydriver »

No 130072752470 eBay covers an unusual airport firefighting CCKW from Europe. More than likely one of a kind. This is a most interesting post war application of an old steel warrior.

Even with the heavy post war mods, she would still look great in flight line yellow and 1950's U.S. Air Force markings. :lol:
