(See pictures) The odometer says 97k, but the cable connecting the speedometer and odometer was disconnected and is inaccurate. The frame is in very good shape from oil splatter and preventative maintenance done by the Army before hand, so only surface rust is present. The body is rusty in several places, worst being the driver side floor. Once I finished all the mechanical faults I sort of quit for other projects. I have had the vehicle for a few months repairing and trying to restore this beast of a machine. It was used by the Army first, and then it was transferred to the DNR for surveying parks. This particular M1009 came from Minnesota before here in Iowa, and before that somewhere in Kansas as far as I can tell. It was used by the army for mostly transporting commanding officers around the field as well as providing communications. Here is a early 80's military command vehicle version of a K5 Blazer. This is a one of a kind rare manual-swapped diesel Blazer!
