Workhorse W42 Vending Truck Up for Auction

If you’ve ever dreamed of running your own food truck, there’s a 2008 Workhorse W42 vending truck up for auction right now. It’s got a 4.8L V8 engine, an automatic transmission, and 122,000 miles on it.

MSU Surplus Store

Now, it does need a little TLC: the freezer’s out, the generator won’t start, the A/C belt is missing, and the windshield’s cracked—but it runs and drives, and bidding starts at $27,500. The auction is running through Nov. 6 at 5p.m.

1965 Kaiser Jeep M-51 Army Dump Truck

Then there’s the other gem—a 1965 Kaiser Jeep M-51 Army dump truck. Painted in classic camo, it’s got fewer than 25,000 miles on it.

It hasn’t run in about ten years and might have brake issues, but for vintage military vehicle lovers, that’s just part of the challenge. Originally listed for $5,000, the price has been slashed to just $3,000.
