It was taught to all of us in Kindergarten:But better being put to use than sitting collecting dust and doom. If I'm not here the parts will be meaningless to my Wife. Take Care and Be Safe.
It was about something, and sure enough:I'm doing the same here...sell it all so it gets used and not thrown away.
Oh, what was this post about?
...screw up, and then measure again all overI hope you find the idea of the rear cargo area interesting, and it helps you achieve similar results. Good Luck. Measure twice and cut once.
Very much so...I brought this thread back up because i received an Email about the M1009 to mini pick-up conversion. This was my Mule and I used it many years. I hope it is still on the road and making someone happy. I hope you find the idea of the rear cargo area interesting, and it helps you achieve similar results. Good Luck. Measure twice and cut once.
.Very much so...
I acquired the truck from the gentleman you sold it to and have been lurking. I plan to give it a freshening up this spring.
This picture is from about 2 years ago. I worked into the night rebuilding an alternator as my daily at the time was not well suited for snow, my dad helped me get it finished... it ended up being one the last things we ever worked on together.
Very nice. I see that it has a hole in the hood where the Chevrolet hood emblem was. That hood was off of a 1986 Chevrolet Suburban that was fully equipped, and it was the only highly optioned Suburban I ever seen that had a factory 4 speed granny low 4 Speed in it. It had every option available and was sold at the Cheverolet dealership a half mile from my home. It was brought to me with a bad engine and severe rust on the rear frame. I ended up buying it for parts. Amazing as it was so rusty the front doors, hood and fenders were like new. I still have the driver's door shell in my barn.

Amusingly... he was very against it at first as I had another project in the driveway, and when I suddenly decided to sell that he became suspicious I was up to something else..
Hate to hear about your dad...
Thing is, you will always carry that memory with you.
I was wondering about the source of the hood. It was, and still is, an attention grabbing ride. One of my coworkers who is a Desert Storm vet has very fond memories of similar trucks. Odometer is sitting just north of 7000 right now (107 I assume?), it ended up mostly being used in local parades before it was passed along to me as I had more time for it.Very nice.

I have to admit I cannot remember, it came with a box of misc trim parts and spares I have stored away and can't recall what is in it. I should probably do that at some point. What I have on hand for all my Chevy trucks have kind of blended together.Did he give you the hood ornament? I sanded and painted that carefully
