Most impressive Rory!!!!! :D

HAHAHA! Well how many sharp points are there in the V? I know you have that fiberglass center part. Are there lot's of sharp corners in it? Those mats with holes look great! Discovered we have them in the workshops here at work and sure nuff water won't collect in the holes. Cool stuff! If you...

Well maybe Rhino line isn't the one I'm thinking of? The stuff I'm thinking of can be sprayed on 1/4" thick and it's kinda soft with a bubbly look. Comes in red, blue, green, white, and black.I mean it is kinda hard, but not hard like bumping your head on steel. Last bad storm, I was winching...

Hmmm that looks kinda crappy, don't think I'd do like that. It was probably installed to protect from spalling maybe? That padding type though is no good. I can see what it is, the ribbed surface in the pic. I guess it is a common type of foam used but man....that stuff is junk. You were...

Would you put a strip above the backrest too? For head bump protection.

HEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY that looks nice! Do that Rory! The heck with sticking to 100% original, an improvement like that would be most welcome. :)

Mr Rory all I can say is just WOW :)

Any updates bub? :D

How bout these guys, how bout this length/price on chuting? Go to COLLECTABLES, then MISC COLLECTABLES INDIANA ARMY SURPLUS - All you could need from a surplus store Or Crane??? http://cranetechnologiesinc.com/50CalBrowning.html

Anything new bub?!?!?! :D

Anything new? Did you stick with the wood or the other stuff?

I know....but it still looks sooo nice!!! Almost a homeley interior paneling LOL! :-D

WOW! Rory that looks sooooo nice!!!!! Will you do mine for me next!:-D And why not plywood? Actually to tell you the truth, I think the plywood looks awesome! I know you're doing a concours resto but man I think I'd stain that!!!!! Is that some birch or oak????

HAHAHAHA! That just plain rawks Rory!!! :-D:-D:-D Indeed...this would be me!:-D I hadn't thought of axle maintenence and your right, those suckers might cost a pretty good bit to fill again. Aren't they 2.5 ton axles???? Malyutkaman you are right, I'd be nervous too and the BRDM does indeed...

I think that looks great Rory, you know...the winch is near surface and really wouldn't see much water pressure anyway so I have no doubt that the seal you have there is quite sufficient. I'd probably run a little adhesive caulking under the gasket wherever the clamps or screws would compress it...

Dude thats so cool!!!! So you have 3 pumps? One fore, one aft, and the engine pump? I think you are safe for swimming Rory, hell proibably still safe with a basketball sized hole in the hull HAHAHA!:-D

Thats slick there Rory! I'm sure it seals like its supposed to, probably does dribble a bit but I'm sure not enough to where the bilge pump cant handle it. Have you thought about putting in a couple (or more) of those electric bilge pumps for boats???? I'm suire at some point you'll ewant to...

Totally awesome Rory!!!! :-D Is there a roller fairlead somewhere on the hull for the cable?

Yep they will eat up armor plate in a hurry. API rounds make some magnificent holes through 1/2" plate but I can see where angling the plates like on the V will throw them off. The projectile must hit within a certain angle range to actually compromise the armor or else it will just glance off...

Cool deal!!!!!!:-D Thats some strong stuff on the bottom too! I'm sure its good for all 7.62 rounds but I would not try .50 on it though! I've got 10mm on the sides and 15mm up front, compressed chrome moly armor plate and I want to say .50 will still cleave through the 15mm like a hot knife...
