    I went junkyard diving yesterday in the M1009 and found some Jeeps!

    lots of CUCV projects

    Remove the plastic inst cluster bezel (philips screwdriver) there is a philips screw on the right side will need a short driver. Remove the radio accessory plate if you have one. Then remove 3-4 small bolts along bottom. No problem. Getting it back in place is bit of challenge but not a big one...

    New addition to the herd

    Thanks Paul. We are willing to accept a long term project and you are correct, it all really depends on the engine. We already have a few leads on beds. I have a M35 bed (even though not correct) to get by with. Right now the parking brake is stuck and it will not roll. Have not had much...

    New addition to the herd

    Thanks guys Still waffling on whether or not to tackle or not. I will be doing the heavy lifting on this one if work begins. It is hard enough to get to work on the M38A1 in my garage.aua

    Thanks we are gonna evaluate whether to resore or not.:cookoo: Dad had a M6 for a while and I think he wants to tackle this one. The usual issues are time & money (M1009 for sale may help the latter).
