when I repaint my deuce 24087 semi gloss olive, is it considered OK to leave the wood stained, or do I have to paint it? Looking for a failry correct early Vietnam period paintjob. I've seen Other vehicles with unpainted wood, but never an M35. When first delivered, my deuce was semi gloss...
nope, twas not me! I was elsewhere in the deuce though :) I'll try to make it down Friday if I can get off, depends if the boss has hired my assistant by then. If not early Saturday for sure. Can't wait! I'll be on the lookout for all you guys

I reccomend all three, have had great dealings with all. There's also a new place I saw in Texas with a large selection, that link is in the other post about looking for one, further down the list. eBay is OK, but everybody watches those. Military Vehicles Magazine is great, not as big a...
funny you mention that. My brother and I actually ARE planning to starting a non-profit [thumbzup] There's more legal issues involved than we had planned on (who'd have thunk?), but the goal of the organization is to preserve and celebrate technical innovation and engineering, mainly from...
