    Fresh Resto #4 M1009

    M1009 thanks! The push bars came on the truck, I think it was a convoy escort of some kind and the military installed those in the front of the brush guard. David

    tires Correction...I was in a hurry yesterday and typed in the wrong tire size... the truck had 31/10/15 and I replaced them with 33/12.5/15's that work and fit perfect. The truck had the seat hinge covers on it, but I would try to find some take offs from a parts truck. David

    Fresh Resto #4 M1009

    M1009 Thanks, for all the comps! Tires are 31/12.5/15 I think they are the best size without a lift Herculiner stuff works great in cold and hot with no smell once dry. However wear a mask this stuff REALLY smells when you are working with it. Minimum sound deadening qualities, but like I...

    Fresh Resto #4 M1009

    PS ....this truck has 19K ORIGINAL miles that's why the door panels look so good. But I did dye them with SEM vynal dye from Eastwood. I don't think you would be able to use the Herculiner on the underside because its rolled on. For tough rust i would use POR 15 and brush it on over the...

    Are the inner door panel plastic or vinyl?

    SEM Vinyl dye Hi use SEM vinyl and plastic dye on all the soft and hard interior parts. Also, buy a can of vinyl prep to soften the plastic before painting. Go here: Landau Black Interior Paint Aerosol 12 oz Net David

    Convoy lights

    lights Thanks for the helpful replies...Don't know what the NAPA remark was about. Anyway, the mast is VERY heavy duty and the amber light looks the same. It's like the one in the picture of the deuce. David

    Convoy lights

    I just bought a M1009 and It had mounted on one side of the rear fender a convoy light (yellow globe) on a mast using the antenna mount for a base. Looks like the NG set it up this way? Was this type of convoy light used on the M1009's or is the mast type for the Deuce trucks and bigger? How...

    Resto Yes, this is my 3rd M1008 in the last year. I have been doing muscle car restorations for about 25 years on the side. I had one sell last year on BJ, but have gone away form the old cars for now. The Army trucks are more fun! It's just a long time hobby that I have fun with.:cookoo: David

    resto Warwag, don't know the RPM's but they are less and you run around 60 mph at a nice low RPM. Use SEM vinyl die on the door panels and rest of the interior. The dash is a new vinyl over foam from a guy on e-Bay....he is great and has low prices. Here is a shot of the engine and jack area. David
