Decided to rattle-can my M1009. I've done quite a bit of this with my combat gear, but nothing so big as this! I like the results. Best part is, in six months, when I come up with a new idea, I can do it all over again! Probably cost me 100 bucks total, including the gear to sand it down with. Won't be on any showroom floors, but i like it.

What is the hole on the front driver's side? Haven't seen a hole there before. Paint looks good!

The camo basic looks good - that concept of the pattern an patterns like it have been around a long time. Looks like a Cocaine Delivery truck blew up in your yard though - what is up with all of that White stuff ?
Good Job over there on the paint.

The port sticking out the fender is to attach a external heater. There are two under hood heaters, one heats the battery boxes and cab, the other heats the engine oil pan and transmission pan. There is plywood insulation inside and a quilted cover that goes over the back of the truck. This is the only picture I have on my computer, if you want more info I have the TM somewhere.

Actually a light winter here in Alaska. It was 30-35 last week when everyone down South was suffering! Not good for snow-mobiling though...
Always a snob in every group...never said it was a professional-grade paint job!

In truth, the only opinions that really matter are yours and your girlfriend/fiancee/wife's (if applicable).
