Hello I’m starting this build thread for my M1008 so others can see it and maybe get some ideas and also to learn from any feedback you guys may have. I’ve had an M1008 before that I parted out for use in my rock crawler and also had an M1009 a few years ago that I got while I was stationed in Hawaii. I built that thing and then subsequently sold it to move on to other projects. So I guess this is my third M, but this time I plan on documenting the journey a little better.
I got this one from a guy down in NC a few months ago and it is in pretty good shape. He had started the build but stopped for whatever reason. He had already stripped the cab, repainted the inside, rhino lined the floor pan, and added a bunch of dyna mat to the firewall and dash. Unfortunately the truck sat outside for several months and the engine filled with water. So as of right now I don’t have an engine. I’ll post a bunch of pics from what I’ve done so far and then try to stay on top of posting as I go on. Hope you enjoy!![BCEF91FA-F3C6-4A92-960F-2FF406528852.jpeg BCEF91FA-F3C6-4A92-960F-2FF406528852.jpeg](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/608/608884-2b920f7229eefb5deab5d6f9eebc8aa1.jpg)
