Your rear fenders should have a slightly different assembly configuration and rivet pattern than the mass produced truck.

Do you have an insulation blanket under your hood ? Remnants of one ?

What does your front bumper look like ?

I could be wrong on this, but I believe there were three phases of prototypes followed by early production trucks under the 2334 truck contract and then mass production trucks for the 50,000 truck contract. All were progressively different. The first prototype had 5 competitors and looked like...

I think mine is an XM966

Ok, so that means your truck was made in late 1984 and is M1037 000016, if the #16 is correct, and it certainly could be. That would make it the oldest known (to me) production truck, and a pre mass production truck. Your truck was made in Lavonia, Mi. before the plant moved to Indiana with the...

Truck 000046 has those same features as yours.

I used to think those cutouts were planned as drains but I think they might have something to do with removing the rear shocks.

Sorry...an attempt at humor. I guess you mean the base and the sign ? Yes that would be cool. My 1983 Govplanet Hummervee is older by a couple years and has very similar camo job pattern outlined in grease pencil. Not yet standardized I guess. I wonder if the person who penciled the original...

Not to be a smartass, but they made thousands of units identical to the truck in the photo !

Woodland once production started.
