Nice truck David! Now that it is mine, I drove it 100+ miles today, no problems. need to work on my wiring now for radios and accessories. First up may be putting the 600W, 24V inverter in that I have lying around. That will be the easiest way to get power. Next will be a more permanent 12V for my Ham radios. Looking for an appropriate HF whip.

Great truck! Did you recover the original seats? The LMC catalog has the S10 seat covers that look about right, not sure about the rear seats though.

I'll have to start a thead soon with my rebuild. Same deal new 686 tan over the faded CARC camo, will smooth out the rough parts. I found it to be very interesting when I took everything out of the interior. Glad I did it.

Your project looks great!

Hey Mark, your new truck and your first post glad the truck worked out and ran so well. That is a nice running truck!! I have a radio cable I will let you have if you need it.

Next truck is on the way up from South Carolina by the end of the week.

But I have two trucks to do in a new paint scheme of urban camo using the SW paints. So stay tuned.

I have all my seats custom covered by my upholsterer. Most any good auto upholstery shop can make them.

Southern CUCV Restoration looking for M1009

David,

Like your work. Been looking for something to replace my 2007 HUMMER H2. Would you consider building an M1009 that was military on the outside but a little more comfortable on the inside, or do you only do straight restorations? Just a thought.

Keep up the good work my brother.
