A Track-Ready Hummer H1? Sign Us Up!
The Hummer may have been discontinued eight years ago, but the world's love affair with this gas-guzzling behemoth is far from over. Mil-Spec, a company that restores and modifies iconic vehicles, built a Hummer H1 that’s big, brash, and racetrack-ready.

Using a four-door Duramax pickup truck as its base, Mil-Spec then built its one-off H1 from the ground up using custom coilovers with stiff springs a lowered suspension (a whopping seven inches less than a standard H1), six-piston brake calipers, and low-profile Pirelli P-Zero tires. Even more impressive, Mil-Spec left the parttime four-wheel-drive system of the base truck intact after revising the entire suspension geometry. Though the company didn't divulge the make and model of the base truck, the engine is a 6.6-liter Duramax diesel V8 that's been tuned to output 800 hp and 2,034 Nm of torque.
