Nice truck. Congrats on the win! In one of the pictures I noticed a little damage on the RH cowl. My truck had the same part damaged and it was pretty easy to replace. Here is a link to how I did it. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/my-new-1992-m998-avenger.184818/post-2345715
There was a guy that had them pretty reasonable on ePay for about $70 but I can't find it right now. There are other ones available too.

Quite an impressive equipment layout. What was your theme/time period with all the woodland?

My truck is a 1988 so was trying to keep it period correct for the year model of the truck.

Really nice to see one of the older HMMWVs represented and looking great. I find that you mostly see the newer stuff (M1123, M1165, etc.). I am not bashing the newer trucks as I have an M1165A1.

Thanks, I agree!! Sadly many of the older M998s have been turned into bubba builds with bed liner paint, different wheels, different seats, H1 "clones" etc. I love the newer HMMWV's but just something about an original OEM M998 that is just classic cool to me. Mine is a 1988 and I kinda wish it was one of the 1985 first ones that went into service. I feel from a collectibility standpoint an early OEM M998 will do well in the future and be sought after.

For sure. Its like a classic corvette vs a new one. Theres a market for both!
