M1028 A2 Deuce And A Quater

Just picked up my second MV, a 1987 M1028 A2 with a cut down Deuce bed on it. Truck has 55K on the clock but only 3K since the complete rebuild. It has a 6" Skyjacker lift with 36x10x16 Mudders. The interior has M1010 buckets (look like new), sliding window, sound deadener with black carpet and a Chevrolet console. Transmission was a new out of the box unit. Motor, IP, starter and alternators were rebuilt 3K miles ago. The Deuce tailgate has been cut down so you see over it when looking out the back.

I need to fix a couple of cracks in the dash (from sitting) and want change the paint to 3 color camo in the next few weeks. It doesn't get near the fuel mileage of the M1009, but it will climb a tree with 6WD and 456 gears. I will post some more pictures of the bed and how it is mounted for the more adventurous souls on here. :D

I've always felt my M1028A2 was a suitable replacement for the deuce I sold. That and I got an M1009 to go with it.

Love yours. I would like to see the interior close up. I'll post some shots of mine as soon as I finish painting it.

Bed measures 7' - 4" wide and 7' - 9" long inside. Tailgate is 10" high. I don't know the dimensions of a deuce bed but was told be the guy that built it he cut it both ways.

@ Dependable....looking at the possibility of turning into a dump bed. That would be pretty awesome.

The guy who built this also did one with a cut down drop side deuce bed.

Thanks for the compliments on this truck. :)

Congrats on a great purchase. We are going to need a complete battery of pics dealing with this truck. Bed mounting, interior and all the like. Neato.

Very nice, looks as if the bed were built just for this truck from the ground up. Also as if the cammo paint wern't enough it looks much more "military".
