Thanks stampy. I'm pretty happy with the results of the Gillespie Forest Green. I was kind of dreading the results in that I was thinking it was going to be glossy like the 383 CARC substitute green. Luckily it was flatter. I went with this particular shade of green because my '86 and '88...

Today was a somewhat productive day. Yesterday I finally got my Rapco order for the remaining cans of Forest Green Camo paint to complete the interior. It's been raining off and on all day so I was unable to get the hardtop put on the truck. I made an improvised soft top to keep things somewhat...
Now what Josh? Looks like it time for that 5 ton you wanted. LOL, this thread is turning into the energizer bunny....just keeps going on and on and on....:-)
Here we go again:-) Here's what my deal was. I sent in my 8th EUC 13MAY10. Didn't pickup until 60 days later...why? My truck was during the DEMIL code change. Certain trucks (M35A2's M109A3's etc) now require a DEMIL certificate be sent and put on file for the particular truck you won. The...
You're right Mitymac, I am going to mount the aux fuel tank where the spare tire is currently mounted on these trucks. I am going to relocate the spare tire to the rear. I thought about maybe adding a trailer to house all the spare parts and tires but didn't want to be dependant on a trailer.
Well, typically you pickup your item from where you previewed it. Not always the case but mostly. The current long wait is due to many factors relating to recent Demil codes and demil certificate requirements on some EUC required items. If you are new then you can expect months. Actually, even...
Work done over the weekend. Got the hardtop/windshield assy pulled off my '86 M35A2C to put on the M109A3. Had to add some paint to her to match the truck. There must be an art to rattle canning. Whatever it is, I haven't found it yet....at least no one will see it up close:-). I used 383 green...
I am starting this thread to chronicle my particular off-grid/off-road/outback camper/bug-out vehicle/emergency comms project with my newly acquired M109A3 w/w. There have been a ton of M109A3 camper based threads in here so I figured I may as well throw mine in the bunch. My intention is to...
Well gees Rob and Dan, look like you two are celebritries now! I knew I should have gotten that autograph from you two when I could. Now it's going to cost me....good on you mates!!!
