After driving for 14-hours for what should have been an 8-hour trip through the northeaster on Friday... a roof is now in my possession. and yes, the yellow strap made its last voyage on this trip... not sure how it held up for the journey home. LoL!
My truck is slowly gathering parts to become a GMV Variant.
I bought a pair of Fender Top Plates from 86Humv recently and decided to find a way to utilize other surplus with his Fender Top Plates. As you can see from the pictures below I utilized M151 Bottom Rear Seat Cushions with his Fender...

- did you order the top and install it for your customer or did you start working on the truck with the top already on? Just wanted to know if the install was pretty straight forward.
These tops are actually fiberglass. You may be able to add a rain gutter using the 4 bolts on each side. from the pictures I have seen it appears that the sides should just shed water past the top of the x-doors
I agree, Michael has been great to deal with. My trip will take me from Maryland to Georgia to pick a top up and with any major purchase I like to do as much research as I can. Thank you for the information Doc Rocker
I wanted to reach out here and see if anyone has purchased and installed the hardtop offered by Black Dog Customs as seen below? If you have purchased and installed one I would love to see pictures you have, information on how the installation went, opinion on the quality of the top, its fit...
I posted to this thread thinking that there might be some productive answers or opinions. I understand that in an open forum everyone is entitled to post their own opinion.
My intent was to follow this thread to gain advice on how to drop the RPM's on my truck to put less wear and tear on the...
I have been pondering this concept myself. With what little research I have been able to do so far I don't think gear vendors makes a direct bolt up package. I believe someone over at G503 contacted them directly and that was what he was told.
Now, there was a Slant Back for sale over on the...
I'm working on collecting parts for a GMV build as well. How far are you planning on going with build? Full replica, or do you just want the roof, open back, and half doors?
Here are some pictures from the mock up earlier this summer. I also have the matching Driver and Commander seats to these seats installed in the front of my truck. Hope this helps if anyone is interested in the seats for sale.
"Anyone ever tried those out in a hmmwv?
Those look like great rear seats."
I am in the process of fabricating a new rear tool box lid so I can mount those style rear seats in my HMMWV. The flip up base on the seat will still allow access to contents stored under the seat.
Both the truck and trailer look great! I want a M101A3 trailer bad to tow behind my truck... they are just hard to come by around here.

Parade Time Again
My Local Fire Department is located a mile from my house and again this year I put my HMMWV in the carnival parade. My kids love it, and its a big hit with all the spectators. I'm still the only one in my area that really has one. Most everyone else still enters their...
Well... As of last check... The oldest wants mommies 4-door Rubicon, and the youngest that you can see in my side mirror switches between mommies 5.9 Cummings or daddy's 52 M38. My biggest worry is the lines of boys that will be lined up down the block after they drive any of our "toys" to...
