Hummer is about to be revived as GMC’s new EV 4x4 venture. But the new creations are unlikely to share many similarities with models that underpinned the Military-inspired vehicle brand. Cars like this 1995 Hummer H1 are what made the brand iconic. And this newly-restored example features a host of modifications that have dragged the utilitarian off-roader into the 21st century. Having undergone a full refresh in 2020, with the truck stripped down to the metal, this Pennsylvanian-based H1 has a long list of parts replaced, with all work done by an H1 specialist. It could very well be one of the most mechanically and visually complete H1s on the market today.

Exterior and Interior

With a fresh respray completed in 2020, this silver Hummer H1 has been fully refreshed for active (civilian) service. It features a roof-rack that includes two axes, two shovels, and a jack. The H1 also has two ladders mounted to the rear and a brush guard on the front bumper. Additionally, spotlights are mounted to the roof-rack. Capping off the external changes is a 2-inch lift and new center caps for the wheels. Inside, this H1 features a new Pioneer stereo system, including Apple Car Play and a reverse camera. All connectors and jacks are present for an iPod set up, and it has an iPad holder up front as well. This H1 has been newly carpeted and features heated front seats and a starlight projection on the headliner. As part of the restoration, the driver’s window switch was recently replaced, and the installation of a new window channel and window regulator on the driver’s side. Also included is a brand-new cargo net, new transmission boot, fold-up jump seats in the back, and leveler lights that light up.

Engine

Listed as under the hood of this modified Hummer H1 is a 454ci engine, coupled with an automatic transmission. Mechanically, this Hummer H1 has had a host of work carried out during the refresh, including all-new shocks, new brakes (rotors and pads), new ball joints, a new battery, a new starter motor, and a new throttle body. All fluids have been flushed, checked, and replaced with new, while the transfer case has also been refreshed with new sprockets and a new oil pump. Suspension and steering have been taken care of with a brand new lower steering shaft u-joint, new idle arm, and new tie rods. Coolant hoses have been refreshed with new items. Another novel feature included in this build is that the second fuel tank fills first, using a toggle switch in the driver’s cockpit. A solar battery tender has been installed too. Finishing off the build is a new exhaust done by D&D custom exhaust. It comprises a 3-inch pipe with a high-flow catalytic converter and muffler.
