Here are some more examples of my work. The current design uses Made in USA Berry Act compliant milspec PVC vinyl or civilian high-quality sailcloth, just like Hummer H1s used. The frame arrives ready to assemble. You only need a screwdriver. The cover attaches with velcro.

Free shipping has been extended through April. Get 'em while they're hot.

Made In America, Buy America The vinyl I use is made in New Jersey and the other parts (thread, cord and cord lock) are also US-made. And then it's made (by me) in Virginia. BDGR

What kind of prep did you do? Any scuffing, sanding, etc.?

Happy to help! Hey, you need some footmen on the fenders and in the bed! The 1" can usually be found elsewhere on the truck, look behind the drivers seat or on the top of the inside of the windshield, for instance. Inside the bed on each side is supposed to be a long flat one that has been...

Two for sale. Price $80 per, delivered. These are made from 1000D Cordura Nylon. Each has a 52x16” window. They use D rings to attach (not Ancra buckles). These were experiments I don’t plan to make again. They have some shelf rash but nothing bad. They do not include a stiffening rod on the...

Bottom line is do your homework. Pictures are nice but not the same as laying hands on it. Plan to physically visit the depot before bidding. Self-pickup is better than arranging shipping, and be prepared to have to do A LOT of routine maintenance before trusting it. BDGR

Beware of salvage 6.5 powertrains from late generation HMMWV scrappers. Mine was removed with bolt cutters and a blowtorch. All connectors were yanked apart, regardless of how they were screwed together, etc. Then there were the forklift tine strikes on the oil pan and transfer case. It was very...
