Rick, are you dressing up as the Jester for the Renaissance Faire again?As promised I wanted to post some pictures of the progress. The doors are inside and edge painted and now hung and adjusted. View attachment 849219View attachment 849220 View attachment 849223 View attachment 849224 The hood is in Great shape. The adhesive that they used at factory had left loose and someone had applied a Permatex type adhesive to bond the inner and outer structure together. Massive FAIL. I used some adhesive caulking and have achieved great results. The inner and outer panel are as one now. I will be painting the edge of the hood and tailgate and get them ready to install. Today started out as planned but wet rainy weather prevailed. I need dry weather to paint. I will be spraying the underside of the hood in flat black like factory. It is relatively clean with the exception of the gray caulking. Zero rust anywhere and that will look great with the flat CARC green and flat black contrast. I never run out of things to do. Tonight I am attending https://pplcenter.ticketsoffice.org...hers?msclkid=176bbb0ae968111381d5da76ee3eb6e2

Hope you're ok. Only a few minutes away if you need help moving stuff around!I am preparing my barn for the winter. I have not been getting a lot done with illness and work. I think I will rest for the winter and hope for progress in the spring. I am going to move the CUCV M1009 forward and cover it till spring. I was out today doing a lot of cleaning and sorting of parts from several vehicles and equipment. It is poring down rain all day and it is hot and damp. I will hope things get better. Till then I will rest.
.Thank you. I think it will all work out. I appreciate the support. I found a lot of parts I am going to put up for grabs and sell.
I am, thank you. Feeling stronger every day. Keeping busy outside in the cold with firewood and trailers that I bought. I learned a lot about the M1102 / M1101 trailers and trailer chassis. Looking forward to advance on this Little Red as soon as Spring arrives.Hope you're doing well Rick!
