Ya H1’s are bad ass but I cant imagine any military issue is in good shape. Between sand and every other natural element hit with it on top of being just abused, you might be better buying a civilian one. ---

H1 = Not cheap At least for what it sounds like you are looking for. ---

You used to be able to buy all the parts seperate and assemble it yourself for a reasonable amt. of money. 30k ish. Problem was if the factory didnt assemble it it was not issued a VIN or MCO and became kinda a pain as it would have to go thru salvage inspection and get issued a NY VIN# ---

you can get them thru army auctions. I just came in for lunch after driving one at work for testing 🙂 I am on co-op for a testing company in Nevada. They are not all that great for offroad tell you the truth, they are not comfortable what so ever civilian H1 and military HMMWV are 2 different trucks, just an fyi there should be a lot coming on the market(if they get sold) in the next couple of years because they are getting replaced by the JLTV [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/does-anyone-know-where-how-to-pick-up-a-used-military-h1-hummer/58305.md?page=1)
