  • My latest project..

    I bought an 86 Chevy M1008 Military 1 1/4 ton truck without the engine (6.2 Deisel)..I bought a 350ci gas engine to put in it..I wanted to keep it low budget but I wound up having as much in the engine as I did in the truck ..Anyway Now all I need to do is drop the engine in and paint the truck (CARC Desert Tan) and that should be done if I can figure out how to wire everything up:confused: ..My new tow rig
    Here are a couple before and after pics of the engine and before pics of the truck...Ckick on the pic for a larger view..

    Nice, where you guys finding all the military stuff?
    For you guys who can't drive, I have owned a frame rack for several years. Prices are based on your skill and ability to wreck it....
