I plan on making it into a camper but, with a military angle to it. Will have fold up bed (s) and plenty of storage racks. It still has all of the outlets that were hardwired into it so I have plenty of the 110V plug ins for heater, tv, or other items. external power is through a 110v cable off...
I bought it at a show over a year ago the guy bought it thinking it was the WW2 style and just wanted to get rid if it. It was still new in the cardboard box sealed in a plastic bag. It was just like we used to have in my unit and I bought all that he had so I could cover all my trucks. From...
I finally got my m1008 pickup and radio shelter camo painted last weekend now my sons want to put it under some camo netting and "hide " the truck.
Told them that was this weekends fun will have pics up soon.
Have to finish bodywork and repaint on customers M1009 this week also.
Do you still have any of the fording kits for sale I have a friend who has a real nice M37 and that is the only thing he has left to make it a complete restoration?
Thanks
Combatmech,
I'm asking $50 for the bumpers, they are straight and camo painted. I can check on shipping (your cost )or you can have it picked up locally from Warsaw.
I will be picking up 2 M1009's tomorrow both of which will be parted out. I believe both had good front bumpers and brush guards.
I'm in NE Indiana if this helps

Travis,
He you go on the pic. I'm taking some new ones of the truck now that it is painted and will post them soon. I got my parts from TedG in MI. He only had 2 sets of the headlight buckets, not sure if he still has other set. I built my grille section from scratch as I used to build movie car...
I know for a fact that the old style front end will not accept a cat and it's cooling needs.
The dimensions of the front grille area alone are 3inches taller and the side panels are 4 inches wider at the front of the panels. I did a reversal of this with my M35A2. I liked the look of the newer...
