    Need an induction cowl to wake up that sleeping 6.2? How about a fiberglass cab?

    Nice if you have a pocketbook to match their prices. Didn't realize there was a company that does that type of work. I wonder how much of demand that is out there for glass bodied trucks?

    M1009 won't start without help

    It sounds like you should bring it back to the one that converted it to 12 V and have him d-convert back to 24. There should be no reason to go through alternators and batteries unless you had starting issues or other issues beforehand. Diesels only need a few things to start. Good fuel...

    Terminus M1009

    I pulled into a Kentucky Fried Chicken with my M1009. Went in to order and the kids behind the counter said that truck is cool. What's mounted on the sides, fishing poles? I just laughed and told them it was a military radio truck and those are the antennas. They have no clue nowadays.

    New side glass for top?

    Have you ever used one. A good friend owns a glass shop and loaned me his kit. Long story short, I brought it back after 2 hrs of use with no joy and he just laughed and said "I told you so"
