1998 AM General Hummer Open Top (HMCO):
Last year for BTM off road system, first year for upgraded interior. Most coveted year by Hummer enthusiasts.
The truck is in the first Azimuth magazine for 2010.
My mother is the original owner, I purchased it from her in '08. However, I have driven and taken care of the truck since new. All major service has been performed at certified Hummer dealers.
The truck is always garaged.
71,4xx miles

Factory options:
GC package
Gray cloth interior
Warn 12,000lb winch
Heated windshield
CTIS (central tire inflation system)
Rocker Panel Protection
Turbo Diesel 6.5 litre

In 2009 it was restored, with over $20,000 invested into the truck. Basically, this is a new 1998 Hummer.


This is the only Matte Black Turbo Diesel Open Top H1. The paint is PPG matte black. Jason Burns painted the truck, he has done such vehicles as Rob Dyrdek's/Rouge Status '69 Camaro; Camaro's for the upcoming Nic Cage movie; a Ford Taurus for Ford's booth at 2010 SEMA show; '10 Camaro for 2010 SEMA.

Maintenance; many trucks for sale require $10,000-20,000 in maintenance, this truck needs zero. It has always had maintenance taken care of before it was needed. All parts replaced are with oem AMG equipment. Many H1 owners are afraid of taking their trucks outside the city. I frequently take my truck on 500+ mile trips (often to Michigan's northern peninsula). Many owners are afraid to go over 60mph. I frequently drive the truck between 75-80mph, but often keep it at 65-70mph for better fuel economy.
