    What is this?

    It looks very similar to an old Telephone Pole Hauler that my neighbor has except yours has much smaller tires. Your probably correct in that it was used to transport bombs to the runway.

    M416 Restoration in Progress

    That's a great idea. Thank you. I was just looking on Amazon, they sell the magnetic kits that bolt onto your plate. They are around $30 for top & bottom magnets.

    M416 Restoration in Progress

    Off the topic, but why do so many M416 Trailers have damage to the front and rear of the bed that looks like ball pein hammer dents or dings? What exactly is that from? I've seen it on numerous M416's. Mine are on the driver side when towing.

    M416 Restoration in Progress

    Well I'm far from done but I was able to get a coat of Olive Drab on it today. I went with Lusterless Khaki Olive Drab. It's a little darker than I expected but it looks good. Next up is another coat of paint, stencils and electric then it's on to camping!

    M416 Restoration in Progress

    That's brilliant! I bet that would be a great money maker. I could see that on all types of vintage or classic vehicles.

    M416 Restoration in Progress

    So where should I mount the license plate? I don't want to cover the unit markings & serial numbers. Any ideas? Thanks!
