    New to me '86 M1008

    I just closed the deal tonight on a 1986 M1008. I had a good friend drive over and check it out for me. He said it's the nicest CUCV he's ever seen. Going to go get it Tuesday or Wednesday. It has just under 50,000 miles, new alternators, master cylinder and brake booster, and NO RUST.
