    goldneagle's M52A2 restore thread

    Hey be patient! i had a lot of pictures to process. I spent today pressure washing the truck to try and remove the flaking paint. Hadn't used the pressure washer for 2 years so I needed to clean out the carb. Got it clean the 2nd attempt. I used a rotary 0 degree tip to power wash the loose...

    I was thinking of keeping her Air Force Blue. I see a lot of Blue Grey under the flaking CARC paint job. Not many A.F. trucks out there. I will take some pictures after the pressure washing to show you the color. i hope some of you guys will chime in and tell me if that is genuine A.F. color.

    I know what to do with the kill lever. I had the same issue problem with my M109A2 when I picked it up at Camp Shelby. When I said it didn't stop I meant NO BRAKES!
