    Ex army trucks - Are they worth it?

    You might be able to get one registered in California as an RV if they are made in the US. It has been years since I looked into this but my Mercedes was impossible because it was imported, but I remember it being possible with an LMTV because they were made here.

    Checking out a 1017a soon what should I look for

    Do you have any photos? I would be concerned about cab rust. Very difficult/expensive to remedy. I don't know specifically about 1017A, but for the Unimog it is floorboards, door sills, and the bottom of the windshield. Victorian is correct - I think at that age you should assume you will...
