If you want to sell it for over $15K, closer to the 20 range, I'd say put in new matching high-back seats, and canvas. Touch up the paint and fix the hood corner. advertise it as a Never "off-road title" truck, and ensure the history goes with it.
Otherwise. Good luck either way.
Savpeter, have you worked for the government?!
The HEMMT thing was a change, they had HEMMTs for sale, sold some, EUCs complete and delivered, and then a few weeks ago the DoD awarded a rebuild contract and suddenly stopped sales of the HEMMTs. including the ones in-process that money has...
Find the Behr paint threads, there's a few of them (and yes I know the Search on here isn't the best). Most of us have just used the Harbor Freight or similar paint sprayer, mix in some water or flowtrol or something to thin the Behr out, and just spray. Mine created a very nice, CARC feeling...
There's a good reason, the stuff is hazardous to your health! Seriously, if you are sanding or blasting it, you need a contained breathing apparatus to avoid inhalation.

BLUF: ARmy has cancelled the LRV and is replacing Scout HMMWVs with the JLTV.
All,
I'm hoping that I can find one or two vehicles available to be or be brought in for the 4th of July 2016, to Spring Lake, NC.
The Town is looking at dedicating a memorial to the Vietnam veterans from the town. This isn't solid yet (waiting to find out from Town Manager who is talking to...
As far as your paint goes... I don't think Behr is your best choice. I agree that you need to look at something heavier duty.
It's my understanding that Midwest Military bought TM9 Ordnance paint (is that still correct?) I would check with them as he does a heavier duty paint, to include a 2...
Chief, I am sending you a PM with my government email. If you can respond from your official address I can see about getting you the information you require.
