Here are a few pics of my body donor. I paid $750.00 for what you see minus engine, trans, t-case, and drive shafts. It will go back military loosing all the chrome and mldgs but I will have the advantage of having a factory a/c dash with controls as well as most of the under hood stuff.

Class 3 hitch added and tied into military pintle to have the correct positioning and pivotability required for military trailers. Note the bracket from the pintle to the hitch is from an m1008 pick up and the hitch from a salvage yard. The ears were cut off of the oem pintle mount and welded to...

OK here are some new pics. 09 in its current condition.

Awesome! Wish I could be a fly on the wall for that.

Ohh Im not that's why the body swap.

It's not hard but you will need to add a tilt column that has the wiper switch as well as the module. It is all direct bolt in and plug and play.

After my IP ordeal (see pop went the weasel) I have been driving my 09 on a regular basis. I installed a class 3 hitch that was modified by a buddy of mine to incorporate and strengthen the pintle as I tow an m101a2 and an equipment trailer. I also purchased an 1984 civy version that I am using...

Here are additional pics I couldn't upload.

Back working on it. Took some pics to show you the extent of the rust which isnt even half of it considering the tailpan is gone and I cannot open the tailgate without one side of it falling and all 4 floor supports/ body mounts need replacing. I had to remove the exhaust as I had no rear...

Here you go. These were a/m civy machined aluminum bullet hole wheels that I had my good friend Bill Swann @ Wheel Innovations strip and powder coat gunmetal gray. He did the rear centers as well and I will have black lug nuts by Tuesday. I think they look cool and were dirt cheap. I even have 1...

Rim pics will be tonight. I took some with my phone today, lousy quality but will upload when I get home. I am still waiting on my black replacement lugnuts which should be Monday or Tuesday. I have some loner chrome ones on it now. We decided to do the front brakes with Napa Lifetime...

Keep it up Cucvnut! I went to put the wheels on today and the black lug nuts I got for it wouldn't fit seems the military and the civy spec are different but my friends at Big Chief are sending me a loner set till they can get the correct black ones for me Monday. These are special powdercoated...

Won't take the indentions but the point gets across though. Cucvnut how is yours coming along?

Next we took it back apart, did the dog head mod, serviced everything, installed DSG Stud Girdle, new pan gasket, rear main seal, Gear Reduction Starter from DB electrical, New Flywheel, Trans Gasket, Filter, Dexron 3 in the trans and t-case as well as lube guard red additive in both, new...

I wanted to share what is happening to my 09 and start its build thread. My 09 was deployed in the Florida National Guard from 1985 till 2007. It served as a beach patrol unit until 1990 and was left in a storage field subsequently @ 20 k miles where it silently rusted till it was liquidated...
