Oh, very cool. Thank you!
I have a light bar yet to install - a period-correct Federal Signal. Needing the proper brackets from the bar to the gutters!
Mucho thanks. I kept a more vintage Meyer setup to be 'period correct' all the while knowing that the '09' wasn't really used for snow removal. Being 6' 7" tall, I can't really do an '08' comfortably! Slowly rehabing the blade itself. The framework is eiter NOS (black) or tidied up in green...
The "MD ANG" was an add-on by me since I'm associated with a private airfield in MD. Thought I'd 'blend-in'....
It was originally a liaison vehicle based at Ft. Meade and was sold to me by a man who bought it directly from the Army - long before the loving influences of GovLiquidation {sarc}.
Thanks much! It's CARC 383 I think. Maybe someone can correct that number. The supplier brand was PPG. I had it done by a paint shop that was also painting new military water purification units. $50 more than the standard auto paint options.
That's what my plow-installer friend said to me about a year ago. First he said that it needed an extra leaf - then saw the three under the front-end and he said that I'd have no problem the way it was since it's a 3/4 ton. Awesome, huh.
So pleased with this configuration. The M1009 is a real pleasure to use as a plow. Photo is during the clearing of the runway in Maryland. Some tweaks left to do, but very satisfied!
