    lots of CUCV projects

    Those are goodmark hoods. They fit pretty well just a few small adjustments i've noticed to make them fit really well. You should definatly stop by PM me and I'll get ya the address. That black truck is really nice, you can barely tell its a cucv anymore with all the modifications!

    Painted M1009 with Waterborn CARC
