At that price point you can have my immaculate M925 guntruck, RSMS reset, on 16s. Knock off $5k if I keep the ring and related parts. (Seriously)
The guy is at least twice of reasonable price, even allowing for location. I realize there's lots of panic due to demil code changes, but don't...
"Categories of Risk", or "When Everything is Emphasized Nothing is Emphasized"
Warning labels. Everything has one or more. Every medication says not to take with alcohol. The sleeping pills warn about causing drowsiness. What do we accomplish? We teach people to ignore warning labels, so that...
"Aftermarket" '"custom" and "12v", when referring to a 24V military vehicle all send up red flags for me.
Based on this description, my best guess says someone has "improved" it beyond the point of function...
Exhaust brakes are great - I have one on my 1ton Ram. They work better at higher RPM. They're great for slowing, not so good at stopping. Not like a real Jake.

$4-$6k. Subtract for any deficiencies.
I lot of people like to play with these in the mud. Many of those people don't maintain the bearings and diffs. Evidence of that would cause me to wave off....
$2500-$10,500. Hard to get any closer than that with the information provided....
M105A2's are available all day long in decent shape for $350ish. Figure the transport and titling process is worth another $300 and your have a value of the 105 at $650ish unless it's something special...

Things to think about when chosen paint -
What do you want it to do?
1) look good. The housepaint does that.
2) ease of application. The house paint does that.
3) resist sun damage. The house paint does this very well.
4) resist scratching. The house paint fails here.
5) ease of touchup...
I don't see anything the least bit concerning in that sample. What do you find objectionable?
What makes you think it's a low mileage engine? "The odometer" is NOT a valid answer.....
