Ive done several vintage air kits on 67-72 Chevy's very straight forward just takes some time.
looking at my m1008 there is a lot less room under the hood but should be very little difference other than the extra alternator in the way.
I understand what you are saying my Friend but this truck is going to be a custom rig no concern at all for originality.
If the truck had been in better shape i would have keep it original but the only good panels on this truck was the passenger, fender door and bed side
I'm going...
on the original mileage i would look at the wear on the steering wheel and the shifter nob Thea should have a textured pattern at 7k miles be worn slick almost shinny at 107k
great find buy the way ill be looking for a m1009 for a dd soon myself

To me it does seem to be spinning fast but this is my first cucv Ive had several civy version in the last 24 years.
what I'm wanting to know is there any way to identify my starter?
I'm hoping all i need is a solenoid don't wont to drop that much coin for no reason the starter works fine.
If it turns out to be a 12v i could do the 12v conversion.
if i knew what starter was on it originally i would not have needed to make this post. the Parts replacer wasn't even sure.
I bought my m1008 at a used car lot. Thea could not get it to start for me to take a test drive so there parts replacer.(i wont call him a mechanic) Had taken the starter off and was trying some he picked up in there junkyard (no military vehicles there i checked) and a solenoid he had new in...
Just starting my build.
37 in interco truxus mt (37.5 in mounted) on humvee 8 bolt wheels.
First finder cut no lift no inner fender soon to be 52 in front springs.
I'm going to use these on mine minus the perches when i get new leaf springs i think Thea give a discount(25-30) for leaving the perches out of the kit. Ive bought several parts from them great company to deal with.
