Link to the auction site. If you have a spare 50k or so, will make a good Christmas gift!

“Two vehicles sure to attract serious attention from collectors are an American GMC DUKW and British Humber Hexonaut GS, amphibious trucks used to transport Allied troops and supplies over land and water during the war. The Hexonaut GS is the only one of its kind known to exist. Vintage 1940s motorcycles are also on the docket, including a 1942 Harley-Davidson UA with sidecar and a 1941 Indian 841 with saddle bags.

WWII German halftrack armored personal carriers, such as the Hanomag Ausf. C and the Hanomag Sd. Kfz. 11, are also scheduled to cross the auction block alongside more than 100 pieces of war memorabilia including a German 8.8 cm Flak 36 gun and an American white M16, also known as the “Meat Chopper.”

This site has some newer ex-National Guard vehilces. This one has tempted me:

“M37 1952 Dodge, 3/4 Ton, 4X4, Hard Cab, New Wheel Cylinders, Carburetor Over Hauled, New Batteries, 17,208 Miles, Good 900x16 Military Tires. A very nice local truck from Idaho’s 116th, and with some history. Drive it Home. $7,500 “
