383 green is the correct color for the 3 color paint schemes. Forest green is for older (Vietnam era) Marine and Seabee trucks.

My gut feeling is like the gasser M35s. Most I've seen have the exhaust out the back with little support which puts it all on the manifold flange. Just a theory.

Looks good, what's the next project???

Free would work! What do you want for it? (Remember, I have to haul it to WY)

The cable is relatively easy to get (I have two), the later 3 push/pull cable is the hard one to find one. I also have 2 extra fording kits for a M35 or M35A1 but by the pics they look totally different. Acetomatoco used to have a complete kit. (don't know what happened to it or who got it).

Another way to think is, when driving an old jeep; Start out in 1st then stop and start in 3rd. The jeep (and your clutch) will really bog down and struggle in 3rd.

Well 20 MPH in first might be a stretch, It makes it easier to run but the engine has to turn over faster. (remember lower gears are numerically higher)

I'll be there depending on weekend. I was kind of tight on time during the airshow weekend, and wasn't really crazy about driving 2 hours to go to another airshow. (Rally's are alot more fun). The parcel you have, what city is it in? One thing to remember; not everyone likes/does tents. I kind...

Personally, I would recommend driving a GMC before you commit to that big of a purchase.

So when is that getting painted? It's about next on the list........

A3 hoods are wider in the front and longer than an A2's.

Just thin it with Wreckermans lacquer thinner.:mrgreen:

Same here.

Truck looks good. :beer:

30 seconds looking for CUCV Belt http://www.steelsoldiers.com/cucv/64721-gen-1-gen-2-alt-belts-compatible.html

Well the simple fact is that planning on driving an untested (and unchecked) GL truck 1K+ miles on a recovery without a backup plan is well......dumb.:oops:

Used sheetmetal comes up frequently and is usually cheaper and easier than fixing.

Well the good thing about the M35's is that you can still get the "correct" weatherstripping. (not that cheap though)
