1993 AM General HMMWV/HUMVEE
Extremely Rare Military Spec HMMWV with Civilian Interior, Leather
Seats, Air Conditioning, Outfitted as Military Police Vehicle, 2 Owners
from New, 21,900 Original Miles, Street Legal and Registered, Only Ever
in Civilian Use, Same Owner Since 1995, Dual Front Night Vision Lights
This particular 1993 HMMWV is one of the few trucks that was produced
on the military assembly line but then outfitted with a civilian
interior. Very few trucks were ever produced like this, as they were
only produced in limited numbers for two years. The factory would stop
the production line and intercept the military truck and then fit it
with the interior and street legal lights. It was the first time in
American history that civilians could buy a military vehicle directly
off the assembly line.
The civilian options were leather seating,
air conditioning, and a stereo. This truck was originally ordered by a
military contractor who supplied bedding to the armed forces. He bought
the truck for his own personal use. He then sold it in 1995 to my
client, a former military police officer. The truck was converted to
military police spec and painted in Fort Bragg pattern camo. It has been
driven just 21,980 miles (original, according to my client) and has been very well maintained by its
enthusiastic current owner. It has only ever seen civilian use, and in
fact gave tours of West Point and led cadets there for years. It
features dual front night vision lights. According to the owner, it is
in outstanding cosmetic and mechanical condition. It is street legal and
currently registered for road use.
This is a rare opportunity to
acquire a significant HMMWV as trucks optioned this way do not often come up for public
sale. It has great provenance. Its only two owners were both involved with the military and truck has such low miles and is in unmolested original condition. It is equipped with dual front night vision lights.
The civilian headlights and taillights are boxed and available for sale with the vehicle. The trailer pictured is not available for sale.
The truck, as with all my vehicles, has a clean and clear title transferred properly through my dealership.
History of the HMMWV:
Introduced
in 1985 by AM General, the High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle
(HMMWV) is was the replacement vehicle for the M151 series jeeps. Better
known as the HUMVEE, or Hummer in civilian form, HMMWV's mission is to
provide a light tactical vehicle for command and control, special
purpose shelter carriers, and special purpose weapons platforms
throughout all areas of the modern battlefield. It is supported using
the current logistics and maintenance structure established for Army
wheeled vehicles. The HMMWV is equipped with a high performance diesel
engine, automatic transmission and four wheel drive that is air
transportable and droppable from a variety of aircraft. The HMMWV can be
equipped with a self-recovery winch capable of up to 6000 pound 1:1
ratio line pull capacity and can support payloads from 2,500 - 4,400
pounds depending on the model. The HMMWV is produced in several
configurations to support weapons systems; command and control systems;
field ambulances; and ammunition, troop and general cargo transport.
The
HMMWV is the world standard in light military trucks. It is
lightweight, high performance, four wheel drive, air transportable &
droppable, land mobility system. The family includes utility/cargo,
shelter carrier, armament carrier, ambulance, TOW missile carrier and
scout-reconnaissance configuration. Payload varies by body style ranging
from 1920 lbs on the 4 litter ambulance to 5300 lbs on limited
availability Expanded Capacity variant, but is generally in the 5/4T
range. A basic armor package is standard on the Armament and TOW missile
carrier models. A more heavily armored, or Up-Armor HMMWV, is now being
produced in limited quantities, primarily for the Scout Platoon
application. Special supplemental armor versions have been developed for
USMC requirements; unique model numbers designate these configurations.
