Over the past couple days we pulled the radiator and fan, the generator, oil canister, and all the hard lines around the engine. We also removed the manifolds and carb as one piece. Hopefully we'll be able to paint the engine this weekend. Then I have to change the fuel pump and paint a few more accessories before putting it back together.

Heres a pic

Great weather to do this type of work! I REALLY should pick up some parts so I can get back to it on my M-37!

Cool door logo, Vermont State Forest and Parks...pretty rare to see!

What're you doing with the superlugs? I've been looking for a couple...

I got the gaskets for the engine today, so hopefully I'll be able to paint the cab and chassis and engine when it warms back up outside.

I think I'm going to hang on to the superlugs until I get this thing on the road, I'm tempted to put them on the truck but I don't think I'm gonna use them unless I need to. I like the looks of the NDTs.

Sandblasted and primed the wheels today, hopefully I'll be able to mount the tires soon, need some tubes first.

Finally got the tires mounted. Hopefully we'll get them painted tomorrow. Here's some pictures.
