Dang that is awesome. I've only been looking at the 4 door ones but maybe your route is a little better cost wise. Any idea what an estimate to convert it over might be?

I found a guy on ebay selling 4 soft doors, the soft top minus the rear curtain and the C pillar included, for 1000.
Seat wise, I can find them for 50-200 per seat, depending on condition. Realistically, I am going to modify it to use Jeep seats, or some other aftermarket, off road / weather rated seats, since I'm not building a replica.

Dude you can not legally register that hmmvv for street use. I really hope your not going to try to they where sold off road only.. But more power to you if can get it done.

There was an article last week announcing you can get them for street use.

Damn. I wonder if I could turn converting these to street legal into a side business?

You can. There is a guy who does it near the springs. he sells on ebay. I wont comment on his business here, but if he sells them for what he asks on ebay, he makes a good amount of money.

Just an update, waiting for paperwork to clear on a military vehicle purchase is about the same time frame as a Form 1 / Form 4.

Oh wow, so payment up front I assume then wait for it all to clear?

I've read that you have to file documents that essentially state that you are not a buyer that is going to ship the vehicle out of the country to a foreign government and then they do a background check in regards to that.
