    LAV-150 Gwinnett Sheriff SWAT

    It probably wont go fit most drive thru's when completed...you will see why later:wink: The first thing we do is steam clean inside and out, then chop off everything that we don't need...then steam clean again.

    LAV-150 Gwinnett Sheriff SWAT

    This is will be an makeover for the Gwinnett Sheriff’s SWAT LAV-150. This particular vehicle has some history, as pointed out in an email I received from a gentleman in Texas who wrote: “Hi Gerald, I thought this would interest you. Your V150 was one that was "captured' in Panama during Just...

    The Eddie Black M114A1E1 Restoration

    We just got the powerpack in and the hoses, wiring and linkage hooked up. Much of this will be covered, but it still gets the same amount of detail as if it were in the open.

    The Eddie Black M114A1E1 Restoration

    Thanks for the comments guys :-D Rory it was a pleasure to have you here, and it's a shame that you live so far away. Roscoe, when this restoration is completed, it will be little more than a floor ornament here. There will be lots of detailed pictures posted on the net, but it may not...

    I agree there should be at least three categories to cover the scope of what everyone is doing. I know that there has been a tremendous effort and resources put into the Eddie Black machine, and that the detail goes well beyond factory specifications. This particular project has seen an...

    What is a "restoration"?

Heck, I've even purchased vehicles with an alleged "restoration" :roll: Basically, I've seen new paint over dents, rust (both surface and deep pitting), dirt...
