That is what I did and it came out great. I used a HF dual action sander with some 220 and 320 grit sanding disk and scuffed up the entire surface. And then washed and degreased it.

Just wanted to give you guys an update on my M1009 since I have had it on the road for over 2 months now. So far I have not had any major issues, the treadwright tires are holding together great. My mileage results seem to be a little less then some others I have seen listed on here. I am...

For the past year or so I have noticed a lot of WW1 planes flying around my local area and thought it was the CAF. Well come to find out it is some locals who bought replica kits and put them together in their garage. You can't even tell they are kits. And they disassemble for travel on a...

Just to let every one know i fixed the problem months ago. I replaced the transmission fluid and have not had an issue since.

I think i have the pics saved on my home computer. I think it would be awesome to build some thing like this in the front yard...lol

GSA had 4 AH1 Cobras up for auction and last I looked on Thurs. They were around 4k when I last looked. The auction ended yesterday. They would have made an awesome display to trailer around. Any one here get them?

I got a screenshot for ya....

Back when gas was about $4.00 a gallon a few years ago I drove home from work and noticed my gas gauge was at 1/3 of a tank yet I just filled it up the day before. When I was at a stop light some guy pulled up next to me and told me my gas door was open. Whom ever took my gas did it in broad...

Is that the movie in which they have him driving around base at night with nightvision on?

That would be a possibility to. Some of the stories I have heard on here it could have been some one who didn't check the brakes or some thing. I also know some of the local fire departments have them and lets just say they are not very well taken care of either.

Could have been, I didnt see it, just had a classmate mention it to me.

Had a buddy of mine in class today mention some one rolled their deuce on its side outside Uhland Texas on one of the slick roads this morning. He said it looked like they tried to go around a corner and slid and the truck went on its side. There was some kind of large wrecker trying to...

It seem like 1/2 of the M1009s now being surplussed out are missing the spare tire. Do people just remove them for cargo space or are they used to replace flats and then instead of putting the rim with the flat in the back they just toss it? Makes you wonder what really happened to all those...

I ordered a Vernier type hand throttle cable today. It is the kind that you can pull out or twist for fine adjustment and when you press the center red button it releases. What I am going to try to do is drill a hole through the out side part of handle casing and run a second cable through the...

Fixed it. The plug that goes into the gauge cluster was not in all the way. I removed the speedo cable to lube it the other day and probably pulled it by accident.

It figures...before my 600 mile trip this Friday with my M1009 some thing like this comes up. Turned head lights on otw home because it was getting dark. Noticed the dash cluster lights were off and the right turn signal indicator was lit up (not the blinker itself but the green arrow that...

Hmm...may have to start saving for one of those. Thanks for the link.

Why? Are they afraid some one will start making replicas?
