    Finally got the M1009 from Sparta

    Huge thanks to Steel Soldier Westech! He, with me riding, hauled my M1009 200 miles today to my mechanic for an engine swap. My M1028 engine is shot, it was easier and cheaper to buy this M1009 than get a rebuilt... The sad thing is the blazer is in great shape, turned over with one turn, no...

    Help GL

    GL, I have been trying to get proof the cucv (M1028 ) I have and bought from you is "street legal". GM tells me because it is built to milspec, they can not issue a letter. They told me to talk with the auction people and see if you can issue a letter or give me a gov contact. Thanks for your...

    M1028 in a refer... finally here!

    Some know the saga better than others. I bought a GL truck at Fort Bragg. I was already to get it, but the timing of the EUC coming back conflicted with my work. So CGarbee got it from Bragg for me back in late Feb. Then CitizenSoldier and other were going to bring it back from Raleigh for...

    5 ton dump trucks

    How much have they been going for? I am trying to get a buddy to join the MV world, and he MIGHT be interested if the price is close to what the duces have been going for on GL. Any thoughts appreciated.

    Fort McCoy

    Several of us have talked about it, Mike at Fort McCoy is the best... he is very flexable, has no attidtude, and works with us. Wish all were like Mike.

    GL FDA document experence?

    Looking at some things on GL that need an FDA document. In looking at it, it appears that if you promise not to use it for medical purposes or promise to sell it to only licenced med professional, that you can buy it, is that a correct read? Anyone know if the FDA document takes a long time...

    Insurance problems

    So my insurance company, the one I work for... is giving me a hard time about my M1008. First, they ran the vin and wanted to know if it was right as it came back as a Postal/Military vehicle. I said, yeah, it is a surplus pickup. Now underwriting wants to know if I will be able to get it...

    Recovery question, best way to get her home

    I looked and searched but did not find a tread on topic, if I missed it, sorry. I live in Milwaukee, I won a GL auction for a 1008 that is at Bragg. How do I get it home? I have a few thoughts, the one I am leaning towards the most is towing it back on one of those U-Haul single axle trailers...
