    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    Woo Hoo!!!:jumpin: We are up to 48 votes on the pole. And it is easy to see who the MV purists are.:grin: But alas, none of the other gull wing owners have chimed in with any answers. So hopefully the support will start flowing otherwise I will just go with my favorite paint scheme that I...

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    Mike/wsucougarx, I put a sugar scoop on my front passenger side bumper when I first got my deuce. And I think you are right that that is the best place to locate it on the gull wing, although I haven't seen a picture of a gull wing with an antenna. On a semi-related note, I have some M109a3...

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    109a3 was what I was thinking also. Now I need to find one wrecked with good windows for cheap. Amazing this thread has 404 views with only 39 folks voting. I know that more than 10% of the population has an opinion. Heck, people are always telling me what they think I should do. rofl...

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    Scott - You are always welcome. But wait for it to get a little warmer and not so windy. But beware, in addition to letting you drive and climb over all the rigs, I will put you to work on one of my many projects I still have to do. I want to bring them all over to the rally. I need to...

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    Hey Mike/maddawg, Do you think it would be less bubba & more military if I transplanted in a few sets of windows out of a M109A3 box? Anyone know of a wrecked M109A3 box in the Pacific Northwest? Do those windows come out easy? That is rayzer's avatar.

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    I am really surprised that so many of those participating in the poll are OK with the truck having windows. The first thing I thought when I saw her was " Oh great now I have to come up with curtains for the interior. The military doesn't have curtains! Blinds maybe, but not curtains" Next...

    Thanx for the pix mcmullag. I really want to find out how that trapizoidal plate above the door is mounted. And what is that color of light green that the interior is painted? Does anyone know of anything, other than a ships porthole, that has round glass window like the pix in post #7.

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    atankersdad - It already has 14.00x20 NDTs on it now. Although they have duels on the rear axle and singles on the middle axle. I am really tempted to put a set of 16.00x20s on her. Driving here home for the 1st time I had to go under some train tracks. I kept thinking I was going to rub on...

    Here are pictures of the hacked up door, the fuel fired heater sitting next to the PTO driven generator, a picture of the device used to set the governor speed, dash plate. Sorry about the flash streaks, just took the pictures in the dark.

    Sprucing up the Gull Wing

    So I am getting ready to get the Gull Wing fixed up for parade / rally season. I was thinking about the exterior appearance and I could use some input on the paint and windows. A local fire district gutted her to use as transport and a mini command station. Then they cut holes on the wings and...
