Commercial Utility Cargo Vehicle (CUCV) - Built by Chevrolet for the US Military
The ultimate "light duty" truck... I present to you the US Military 5/4 ton M1028 shelter carrier, this truck had the most heavy duty components that Chevrolet could put together in one vehicle, yet keep it as simple as possible. This truck only had 18k miles on it when it retired from the Military. But, life was cruel for this vehicle; it spent most of its life sitting outside and was home to many rodents. It had close to a 50 gallon barrel full of rat’s nests in it when the restoration started. Rusted, dented, beaten and barely running, it took 9 months of weekends to restore this beast, and today it stands proud to serve again.

Hi My name is Ricky, You have an excellent M1028 we talked in the parking Lot today by the AMF Dale City Lanes & Merchants Tire & Auto Center. Look forward to more about your trucks The CUCV Owners are a small community I have learned today. Thank you for the information for my M1009. Take care and Have a Marry Christmas.
I love the sound of old school diesels. Moderns are too damn quite.
One of the nicer, cleaner ones you'll see anywhere.
Wow ,your rig is awesome everything look perfect.
Thanks!
I also have a M1028 that I plan on restoring. It has a 5.3 LS and I drive it everywhere. Best Truck I have ever owned.
Wish my cucv still had them bumpers. Love it man! She's clean!
Like a brand new one ! Thx for sharing
Man great job that thing is sweet
This is a M1028A1,the M1028A1 had the NP-208 Transfer Case,the M1028 had the NP-205 Transfer Case.Only the M1028,M1028A2,and M1031 had the NP-205,all the other CUCV's had the NP-208.I had a 1985 M1028A1,mine had over 55,000 Miles on it's N/A 6.2L,it had a 4 Inch Procomp Lift and 37×12.50's,only thing that was missing was a Banks Turbocharger.I also had a M1009 and M1010.
wish that was my truck. damn that's nice
Beautiful truck! Ours look nearly alike. I have a converted m1031. It has the NP205 case. My 24-bolt HMMWV wheels have not been recentered. I swapped out my front hubs for DRW hubs and with with hub/wheel centric machined steel 2" spacers on the rear. You are way ahead of me with your interior. I bet you get tired of folks asking to buy it. I get asked everyday...
What about your lame engine?
Well if it ain't the guy that's a arogant ass oh and he has tats he must be tough ha ha ha ha ha he can beat anybody up just ask his dumbass
¡¡¡¡ F E L I C I T A C I O N E S !!!!!!
absolutely gorgeous!
absolutley beautiful man. I have a m1009 up here in canada, not nearly as nice as this though.
God damn beautiful
Awesome truck! Wish I had enough money to buy it from you. What part of Va. do you live? I'm in Fauquier county.
sharp cucv
NICE NICE NICE!!!!
I was s in a comm unit unit that had 1028's
The only really drawback was with an S-250 shelter on it and towing a trailer that had p[air of MEP-3's and an external fuel tank they took forever to get up to speed, if only that had had that Banks turbo
Awesome!! I'm looking to buy a m1008, maybe tomorrow. I really like the steering column upgrade. Do you know what years fit? Thanks!
I would sell my soul for this ve hickle
American you would have to add some cash on the side lol
Damn

How where the wheels re-centered? Are the Hummer wheels that have been modified? Looks sick
@Evets Zenk Thank you for the Offer. I'm currently keeping the stock wheels on mine. I just finished Painting Mine today and just to let you know, yours is on the top of my favorite CUCV's for Ideas and Inspiration. If you look up BABVDC on Instagram, you can see my progress
