Traditional. Once you dress it up in chrome, pleather, and LED lightbars it's no different than a jeep.

Behr ultra exterior flat. It comes out very nice. Looks like CARC without the long term cancer.

Finished up another one today. It's 99% perfect. I just love this green!!

Do they have the federal standard colors in their system? Cost per gallon? etc?

24087 Smi-Gloss Olive Drab may be what you're thinking of. No I don't have that on the list but if you can find it on here then have Home Depot make a scan and shake up a batch.

I've had some very good and very bad trucks come from Hawaii. I get 2-3 people a month asking me about how to ship them to the mainland and it's a long messy ordeal even if you get lucky. The truck has to be worth it. Besides.. there's a buyer there shipping everything out of country so the $500...

I'm kind of stretching it here but I'd rather have the final vision of what the M35E3 would have been. The 5.9 was a fine engine and with the various models they made for testing I bet they could have put all that data to good use to make a fine reinvention of the deuce and a half.

Where'd you get the black mount for the blower in the cab?

Thank you for the kind words. We still need to meet up for your filter btw. :beer:

Awesome results! You've got the itch for sure now!! If you want to get your hands dirty I can get you to work on my trucks before they ship out haha!

I remember watching that green one sell on GL years ago. It sparked the threads about the "M939A3" program that was scratched to fund the MTVR and FMTV series. Do share more photos! What's on the data plates?

If I had any more I would. :shrugs:

The math I put in a calculator came out to be this: Gear Ratio (2:1) Tire Height (in.) Engine RPM Transmission Gear Ratio (7th gear) SPEED 2.87 46" 2600 .78...

Having installed both gear sets on trucks (and the likely source of the 2.87's mentioned) I can provide some insight... you can't go wrong either way. The loss on the low end power isn't noticeable and provides many perks: better MPG, lower cruising engine RPM, less fan kicking in, and less wear...

On the contrary this batch continued to adhere perfect. I wonder what happened to your fender...weird.

You'll do fine. I always have that feeling too when starting the brown and black. Just make sure to start with the brown and eye areas that it can be overlapped by the black in case of any over spray. Color theory and working smart at its best. You can always add but not take away... general...

Green > Tan. Simply put.

The dye in DOT 5 breaks down with age from purple to golden yellow. This helps tell you the age of the fluid but not the condition. If the bottle has been stored in a cool dry place I'm sure it's fine. If it was sealed air tight then you're "golden" pun intended. It doesn't absorb water like DOT...

Bump for those who've not read this thread. I came across a C7 truck that was giving a code for a dying ECM battery. The internal clock said it was 1/1/2037+ so it's dead on the board. Luckily the issue was solved on the later gen trucks (this was a 2005) so the file was hard flashed. With the...
