M1009 Fresh Resto (Combatmech)

[82ABNMP]

Here are a few shots of the current project for Ben (combatmech) M1009. He is getting a outside paint job with 383 green and black camo. He also had me install a new all steel Goodmark cowl induction hood which I think looks great. It's in primer now and will soon be green ASAP.

Where are all the little dings & dents or as I like to call them "character". That hood does look good on there.

The hood was a little spendy...but I wanted something a little different. That will be the only external civilian mod to the truck.

Ben you truck is ready.

Hey Ben the truck is DONE!

 

[combatmech]

Wow David!!! She looks amazing!!! Thanks again!!! The green and black turned out better than I thought. Cant wait to pick her up!!

Nice cowl! Any shots of the interior? I'm thinking of doing mine black as well

I didnt have David paint the interior. It's not too bad. I have three places that need tending to. I have done a lot already. New dash pad, instrument cluster rebuild. The plan is to get the sheet metal work done, rhino line the floor, change out the seats, and repaint the interior green myself. I'll get an album going of whats been done so far later tonight. This is my second 1009. This first was a learning experience. Thanks for the comments guys!! The hood turned out great.
David is a great guy, quality work, at a reasonable price. A lot less than what I had been quoted by local body shops. Plus, David understands the MV hobby and what we like.

I'm going to do the same to mine, except in tan. Thankfully the driver's seat is still in good shape. The passenger seat is brittle enough to poke holes in with your finger.

That rig is sweet!
