Vehicle Description
Collectible Motorcar of Atlanta is excited to offer this highly
modified, former military HMMWV, commonly referred to as a Humvee.
First appearing in 1985 as an upgrade to the Jeep, the military was
in need of a larger, more capable vehicle with better hauling
capacity, off road capability and versatility. AM general was
awarded the contract for their all-new ground up design with many
unique features ahead of its time. Featuring four-wheel independent
suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, front and rear locking
differentials, AWD / 4WD, portal hubs, 1.25-ton cargo capacity and
much more. Combined, this gives the truck insane entry / departure
angles as well as side slope capability. Each truck is built upon
the same chassis / body, with the ability to configure as a 2 door,
4 door, truck or wagon.
The Humvee is still in production today as an upgraded version
using the same core components that first appeared over 30 years
ago. As time went on AMG continually improved upon its original
design and these upgraded components are all cross compatible with
the same basic platform. This later model '99 M1123 is a former
Marines truck and has many factory upgrades over prior models
including 4l80E 4Speed Automatic transmission, 6.5L Detroit Diesel
engine, 10K axles / suspension, 200-amp 12/24-volt alternator, Red
Dot air conditioning system and winch mount.
This truck has undergone some extensive modifications since its
time in the service. The hard top and hard doors come from Midwest
Military Equipment. It's riding on a set of MASSIVE 38" x 15.5" mud
tires and Fuel 20" wheels made possible by a 4" lift. With no solid
axles to get in the way, this rig has almost 2 feet of ground
clearance on the entire underside. The headlights, blinkers and
stop lights have been upgraded with newer LED units. Out back, the
military pintle hitch has been supplemented by a much more
practical 2" receiver hitch, as well as a converter box to attach
standard 12-volt trailers to the truck's 24-volt system. In the
interior you'll find a nice pair of Corbeau seats and 4-point
harnesses, a much-welcomed upgrade over the uncomfortable military
seats.
Mechanically identical to the famed Hummer H1, these former
military versions are an excellent alternative. You won't need to
fear using it for its intended purpose, an incredibly capable
off-road machine. Load it up for a weekend of off-roading and come
home to simply hose down both the exterior and interior. Then you
can drive it to work on Monday cruising the interstate at 75 mph.
