    The Epic Recovery

    Wow, quite an adventure! Reminds me of a couple times I went cross country in unproven antiques, one a school bus & one a jeep. The Jeep ended up with more snow on the inside than the outside!

    Gotta paint that stop handle red!

    I did it once & then made myself remember that the throttle handle is the one closer to the pedal, worked so far. Can't overspeed unless your going downhill but it sure is loud enough to get your attention!

    Bumper number etiquete

    Do whatever you want! I have Desert Storm era markings on my Deuce & it was never there, nor was I. Already out by then! If my tan truck ever turns green I'll put the markings of my Grandfathers WWII Jeep on it "45-179-1 AT-6", and my Grandmothers name was on the side "Mary Eva".
