Another m1009 project for me.

I won another M1009 last week at Sparta. It looks to be in really good shape with only a little rust. The back of the truck has plywood on the floor and sides and the oil & trans pans have boxes welded to them. It look like it was set up for an arctic heater at one time. Has anyone else seen the wood inside like this?

Yep part of the Arctic Heater Kit. Mine has it as well. Looks like yours is missing the two swing fire heaters and the arctic battery boxes under the hood.

Do you have any pic's of the arctic kit? Well I got it started today. For some reason they took off the wires to the starter. Once I hooked them up she fired right up.

Looks like a nice truck, Kenny hauled my M1009 from McCoy about a month ago. It is really nice to drive and the brakes work better on it than my 2002 Avalanche! I only had to replace the wiper motor and all of the dry rotted tires. Been driving it to work everyday.
