I have finally joined the MV ranks and am now the proud parent of a M1009
. I bought her from GoldComet6 in GA and drove her back to FL.
Did not have any major issues during the trip, but I did notice a few minor things. There was only one bulb working behind the speedo/fuel gauge so only 55mph and over was visible at night. Also, the speedo likes to jump around between 55mph and 75mph so my speed was determined by my brother driving in front of me during the trip. I have her home and have taken apart the dash and gauge cluster to replace lights and clean everything. Surprise!!! I find sand in every nook/cranny/crack/crevice/hole you can think of. This MV has definitely been playing in the sand, but not sure if it was NTC or Iraq/Afghanistan. The M1009 was painted tan at some point too. I plan on doing the doghead mod today and will continue with other project ideas I have picked up thanks to this site
.
