I was going to use Gillespie 24087, but since my financials are not exactly cooperating with this hobby, I went with Behr premium, since I was going mostly for look. I used a color sample from a part that I had laying around that had the green that looked the most similar to the truck Im...
Oh crap. Well, I did the best I could by looking at the pics lol. I should have asked, but I get a little over-zealous sometimes. I will order new ones ASAP. Until they come though, I will leave these on there. Thanks for the input mini.
Redbeard,
Yah I wanted to paint the back of the cab/front of the bed before installation...Ill probably completely paint the bed before putting it on though. I have to do more prep work on that still...but Im trying to get the truck at least finished soon. My goal is to get it least back to...
Thanks mini...The reason I asked was because in that thread, the colors looked quite different then the website for Rapco. On Rapco's website, it listed the years the specific colors were used, so wanted some expert input. Here's the website with the list of colors and info:
Rapco Paint...
Ok well Its been a while since Ive been in here so I thought Id put this up here. This is more for the guys who were there and saw or experienced 'Animals' in the flesh.
I was flipping through a thread in the Paint and body work section and came upon this...
So...I have a question for Driver523 or minigunner64th...I know i can just as easily email either of you, but I figured id give a little bump here. Can either of you tell me what the mounts for "animals" for the M-60's were? Also, what type of cradle did the single '50 configuration ride on? I...
I got them from maddawg308. He could tell you where he got them from. They are just dummy replica's though...no moving parts. Im not sure what youy mean by "gas" though...
Well, I now have armament for "Animals" [thumbzup] I have (2) M-60 machine guns, and (1) M-2 .50 cal machine gun. 8-)
Thanks maddawg308! Pics forth coming. Now just to find proper mounting hardware.
I was gonna say that it was a 5T...i was looking at the door and its plate, then the mirrors, then the small corner peice, then i saw the gas tank. If i had a '54 id build both versions :beer:
Ok heres a little update:
After much consideration, discussions, and research, I have decided to scrap the idea of a fictional truck, and replicate one that existed in VN. With that in mind, and scouring pics for one that I want to replicate, I have made up my mind and decided to copy the...
Yes, the idea was to place it to the rear near the tailgate, without putting armor plating on the sides back there, similar to a quad 50 setup, that way it wouldnt have to be much higher then the sides of the bed, and i would put stoppers on the sides so it couldnt rotate far enough to aim...
LOL yah no doubt...big things do come in small packages i guess...i bet it packs a pretty good wallop.
But what do you think about putting one of them 37MM in my deuce?
