Markings
My tailgate is from another vehicle, and "US Army 1873526" is across the bottom of the said tail gate peaking through many layers of OD.
There also is a ghost of a six inch star on either side, whether or not it was correct or not we'll never know?
16" Combat Rims
I too am looking for a set, I thought i was well on my way, but the deal fell through. I was going to pay fidy semolians each for three. ended up only one was a Combat rim, & it was in ruff shape. :-(
Welcome
From a former Marylander, actually Baltimore. Lots of advice and info here, there are also several more folks from the Free State.
Are you looking for historic or relatively newer vehicles, they both have there merits?

Moose97,
Frank is right on, parts truck, I think you'd need another to make one complete truck. I'm 6' 2.5" and 280, snug but it works for me.
No more than a grand, but 8fidy is more better!
Most of my problems are behind me now I think? My carb was giving me a fit, it might be resolved now, find out tomorrow when I pay the mechanic/rebuilder a visit after the gym.
My Dodge, Your Dodge
I was referring to yours, Storm 51! But your right they are all " Nicely Turned Out"!
Mine on the other hand is still a work in progress and only "Half Dressed". aua
When I started this truck, Bill W's now MIA M-37 had set the bar for me.
Bill also has given me sooo much...
Additives
Couldn't you add a de-glossing agent to the Gillespie you have, they are a few tricks to do this.
I don't mind the gloss, the finish is actually a harder finish, eventually the gloss will fade to what you one want.
