    Coming Attraction - project #6 M43 build

    I appreciate it DC. The 43 stuff if it comes along I will keep an eye out for it. This one has everything and MORE than I expected. I will be keeping an eye out for the med equipment as well - flak jackets - holsters for the sidearms and replica sidearms to "fit" it.

    How much Herculiner ?

    I believe after reviewing the floor and condition it is going to come out and get replaced. I will also be looking for a vinyl to replace the covering once the wood is done. From what I can tell by the bottom coat of paint in the rear area - it was indeed OD and not white or seafoam. I took a...

    Fuel sticker violation in NC

    Ditto - with above. You are soley responsible to know the law when stepping into something and investigating it without any prior knowledge - no one has to tell you - you are it. Did you have the opportunity to make sure the fuel was legal before you ran ? Did you add something to the fuel...

    My suggestion is send me the money you would stick in a new engine and I will send you a case of fuel filters and some power service in exchange with no $ back.
