Thieves around here don't even look twice at a CUCV. In over 20 years living next to a base and parking them in full view I never had a problem. I park in store/restaurant parking lots where ever when I do use a CUCV for casual driving. With my new trucks I park way out to avoid door dings. CUCV...

Tis true. T'was the night before snow storm and all thru the yard. The plow trucks were waiting to plow thru the snow. But what to my wondering eyes should appear. 5 empty plow trucks no drivers were near. I sprung from my bed to see what had fallen and to my great surprise the river had...

Old picture I found when moving furnishing from a house I tore down on an adjacent property. The trailer has the real run flats on it. That was the cargo bed from Easter find. Very useful at the time. Another one of the times where the neighbors were being entertained. They took the picture and...

Snow plows are all reattached and awaiting the looming snow that is in the forecast. Spring is soon here. I expected this. Let it SNOW. Still running 1 CUCV with no reverse. Not Warranted for backing up steep ramps loaded with salt and stone. I understand. It happens. No drive shafts or U joints...

https://youtu.be/eTKhw-v5h2I This is all I could think of. No HOT glue and stick pins here. Just a whole load of old time FUNNY.

All I can tell you is that they fix trucks for me and I pick fly crap out of pepper when I look at vehicles. These vehicles that I have still have window invoice price stickers on them. So I must be fussy. They did jobs that body shops wanted $500. to fix for $100. I have the utmost respect for...

I did want to say that yes some dents you can remove. Many times a dent is there and it pops out. But as most people know the sheet metal had=s been stretched and has an oil can effect now. the trick is to tap and shrinking the metal back in place to avoid the oil can effect. Not as easy as just...

Will not adhere. Surface too rough. Do you have a paint less dent remover in your area? I had 2 dents in an M1009 roof and paid $150. to have them removed. He went in thru the sun visor holes. I also had about 6 golf ball dents that he removed from my Cadillac roof. I cost me $200. to get them...

Probably have one close. That thing done some traveling. I think it was in the 30's K when I rebuilt it. I can check at home in my stash. I still have one here that another guy wanted with very close mileage for his CUCV.

I don't think so. That is going to surely mess something up. Nothing special about a speedometer from that era GM truck. Match it up and replace the entire speedometer. How many miles does it have. I have many maybe match it up real close.

I only live .5 miles from work. I drove a CUCV for 15 years to work as a daily driver. I still do on occasion. The batteries worked fine and lasted 6-7 years. I go home everyday for lunch shut it off and drive back. Very seldom used a block heater. Pinching pennies so the dollars keep growing...

I adjust every ones door that I see slamming and closing hard.

Using a torx 50 loosen the striker and adjust it in more and up if the latch is dragging. Tighten real good and grease everything. Worked for all my vehicles. No spray lube. Real oil can and real grease.

These are a few M1009's I rebuilt back in the mid - late 90's. I know I built one for Frank Craven. He was a really good guy. His Wife and him would do reenacting and that is how I met him. He made me up a nice little book on the M1009 and mailed it to me. Very helpful tips he pulled from the PS...

Before I became involved in CUCV's I was involved in many other vehicles. Police cars, Camaro's. And the last big hoard of vehicles I had were Isuzu Diesels. Loved them. They ran forever got 35MPG and never needed any work. The worst part about the whole truck was lack of room for my growing...

HOT GLUE? I am talking stopping the tear/cut with stitching and material. It needs some reinforcement to the cuts. Better yet get 2 of the liners and use one top and 1 bottom. Eliminate the strength and pull on the cut material. Just an idea to help you make the cover more durable. The small...

Pictures. New U joint in November 2014. Rear U joint on rear drive shaft.

Very nice. Sew the slits or you are doomed. Add piping to the slits also. Do you know piping? It is that rolled material edge that gets sewed around the outer edges.

Very nice. Huge improvement IMHO.
