I finally got my M1009 Blazer painted.

I planned to have this done way sooner than it happened, but it finally has fresh camo. I repainted it using the NATO 3 color camo scheme that came on these trucks. It turned out pretty good, and looks much better than it did before.

Re: I finally got my M1009 Blazer painted.

Thanks! Here are some before pics and a couple pics of one of these on the assembly line. Mine came camo, but it has been painted solid green at some point by the military.

Re: I finally got my M1009 Blazer painted.

They are the antenna bases. My truck was a radio truck, and according to records, it was in Germany from 1998 - 2007. When I got it from the military, the mirrors and the antenna bases were inside the truck from shipment back overseas I assume.

Re: I finally got my M1009 Blazer painted.

my first M1008 was a radio truck there was four antennas on it and a whole shelving unit in the back... it was camo also the second one I have was a repaint with no holes for the antennas
