What state are you in? I’m in Florida, I’ve had my LMTV insured with State Farm for 7 years as a truck, just finished the build and had the title change to RV.
This morning State Farm says their underwriter said they cannot insure it and will be dropping me.
many help would be appreciated.
Well I finally made it…..well almost 98% complete on the M1078 conversion to a M1079 Overland vehicle. My wife and I both just retired and took the kids to a North Carolina vacation before their college starts back in a week. Then a few finishing touches on the truck. Then a week on a cruise...

I design them so there are no corner welds and all the joints overlap. Here’s a quick sketch on the design. It prevents stress in the welds as much as possible. Also the main body are two identical pieces which simplifies fabrication.
Thanks geo but I’m just finishing the new generator installation.
I made it able to swing out for servicing.
Freshly fabricated and leak tested 50 gallon gasoline tank.
Finale resting place for the tank. The gas cap is getting painted, that’s why it’s not on there.
I even put a spark...
