Little more to do - but what a better fitting way to end than to go back to the beginning where the CUCV first was sitting - check out the first pictures and you will see what I mean.
Got the Black Out lights Swiss purchased installed - the housings got painted black - oooops - forgot to tell Swiss to tape up them new lenses before I sprayed them - looks like Swiss has some sanding to do to the new lenses.
Got the deuce and 1/2 pulled to the garage - chassis that is that...
PC - you should have seen the mud at the bottom of the driveway to the garage entrance - we have had so much rain all the mud washed off the power line into the entrance of the garage - but your right they were crappy looking. I was going to tell PB I would trade him Debs M38A1 for the CUCV he...
YUP - this thread popping up again cause its NOT DONE.
I got Zout 2 to fire up the 5 ton and drive it to the top of the hill - also got Zout 2 to fire up the CUCV and roll her out to the open field so we could take some pictures and then leave it out side to bake in the Sun. Got a little more...
More (FWIW) the truck will be placed out in the SUN and the little bubbles in the side decals will be removed - do not send me a pm about pricking little holes in them I already know -
^^^^ Yeah - you go ahead and have a great time doing that - I'll be watching you from afar off.
Topper installed and bolted in - rear tailgate window seals installed - all the interior components laid out - wiped down and I will get them sprayed tonight along with getting the front bumper and...
It was actually a very hard day yesterday and I was more than stressed - it was a relief to get home and Swiss happened to be the fella on the other end of the stick while I just blew off steam in my own way - if you have ever seen them fellas that throw tools or throw a tantrum - I am not one...
SO I cannot get youtube or any other type of video here at work to play so I did not see the clip of COUNT till he arrived last night giggly as a school girl and had the audactity to turn off my 97.1 Rock channel and show me - it was worth it to watch it and it fits him perfectly - now to get...
Could not said it any better PB - anyhow seals all came to Swiss last night and he FINALLY decided to show up around dark thirty tonight - so - here is what we got in. Door seals and window seals - tailgate seal - topper inner and outer seal. Probably some other ones but I got brain dead after I...
FWIW - I did not stick in the theft thing to stir trouble - its just what I had happen just because I was so nieve still at this age - pretty much the end of that (car got locked last night tho).
Have to paint the seat frame's - weather stripping kiit all ordered and expected here Wed 7/24 -...
dead time my arse - as I told you Sun someone had stolen a couple packs of smokes out of my car - I went up to get my Makita bag full of TOOLS from when I went to Dingers house to fix his 109 - it was G O N E. Full set of Snap On box end wrenches up to 1 1/8 - my Fluke multi meter I had won back...
This is pretty much going to be the end of my posting on any further work of the CUCV - seems folks want the cheapest way out or hack the chit of the trucks with the cheapest fix possible just so they say they have an MV - when they cannot afford doing what it takes to maintain then leaving...
I will add one more thing. The paint came originally from TM Ordinance - the same folks where PB got the paint to shoot his WC - it is excellent paint for what we got for his. The only thing about this WW2 German paint is - hardly anyone shoots it. I am sure they want product available when...
