On May 09, 2006 (13 years ago) the decision to end the production of the civilian H1 was made, for many the possibility of owning the best and luxurious off-road vehicle on the road vanished without a fair warning; It was the first and last year of the meanest one yet: The Hummer H1 Alpha. Only 729 units were made! It is a very desirable collector's item.

The images that you see here are from the last HUMMER H1 Alpha ever made! Yes, you read it right, this was the last one to come out of the production line, certified by AM General; never titled!

This iconic piece of Hummer history came to us with all the proper documentation of a new vehicle and a Hood made specially for the occasion, painted to match the vehicle superb color, Mystic Green, and signed by everyone that work in the H1 Project!
