Thank you for the nomination and the support. I try hard to do the best job I can in good taste and also sticking to the original floor plan has helped to hike the value of my finished products. Not 100% original but I have researched and tried the improve mostly on the rust issues. IMHO that is...

We still have 3 hours on the east coast till the polls close. Please cast a vote for my CUCV M1008 project. If you already have done so Thank You. I will try to uphold the same pride and attention to detail in my newest build. I am redoing an M1009 that has sat wrecked for the last 10 years...

I was ask for a few pictures with the truck complete with mirrors and interior. I have none with it completely done. I was off guard with the nomination and sent it to the alignment shop. I completed everything and it is sitting in storage right now. I had to get moving on it because winter was...

I wanted to do something to address the problem areas on the CUCV M1008. It was always the cab floors and the cargo bed floor and sides that are the first to rust and get ugly. My answer was the Line X. Line X hits the sweet spot every time. It is very helpful in keeping the floor rust and...

I stored the running drivable cab chassis of my M1008 project in another shed while the cargo bed was in the barn being worked on. The steel saw horses I built many years ago just for doing the cargo beds on CUCV's. Same as my cab cart. Made life a lot easier. In September the cargo bed was all...

After storing the original cargo bed outside the past 2 years it was time to bring the bed to the shop for repairs and a good cleaning. I used the trailer frame that I picked up at a scrap sale to store and transport the bed. I used the trailer cargo bed in another build back 2 years ago.

As mentioned before I built my truck myself. Everything that is on it is a result of sweat and toil. I didn't buy it as it is today. This is the 3rd time this truck looked this good again. First was when it was built in Flint Michigan in 1986 and then again in 1996 I repainted the entire truck...

My truck was built in my shop from a bare frame to the finished truck. I built it in an unheated barn. Thank you for your support. I appreciate it.

Thank you for looking. I built this all in a barn. With no heat. It was an inspiration. I hope it inspires you to take the time and do the job right. Not a perfect job but as well is I can do with what I have to work with. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving.

After all the work was done.

As you can see. I did a lot of major work to the M1008.

1986 M1008 Easter Find 2015 I bought this truck back in 1995 and sold it to a local man/friend. It was running 19 years and he decided to give it up for inspection reasons. It had a few rust and starting issues. It was only driven 25K miles in the 19 years it was gone. I was up for the...
