Project Ferro Navy M37

[zout]

Wild Dog got delivered last night and some other stuff for that jeepy - when the storm hits the 37 outta be rollin right along - it is a great looking 37 and should be 2k pounds lighter with all that paint off it (not counting Ferro's mud heap).

What is the overall plan for this project?

AHHH take that crappy squid paint off it for one

If there is another layer of that squid mopped paint on it - get rid of that as well.

Ferro just wants it cleaned up and looking pretty (thinkin pink here) but nothing fancy or resto looking - just get a nice mover he can still pound mud with.

Get on the dog and let's see what this baby looks like!

Ya know - after I got that primer on the jeep last night it was about 5:45 and I kept looking back at the 37. But its kinda like the K and WC - you just never know what's underneath it all and I do not want to be rushed and stupidly missing something because of it - so I had to keep backing off from thinking about it - BUT - just maybe tonight at least some parts of it I might be able to get to. Hang in there fellas - its coming.

Did someone forget to POST TRIP his 37 before heading into the muck --- I think there is a TM covering that - if you cannot find it I am sure DH can help ya find it. Dang Squid truck is Air Force incognito.

Strata Blue is called for in this situation!!!

 

[Ferroequinologist]

Negative ghost rider.

That is the civil defense blue not strata.

Please don't paint my truck Airforce!!!!!

Remember, the Commander is color blind.

Remember, the Commander is color blind.

Yup...that old feller may not know pink from purple but he sure knows how to do the prep work and spray whatever color is in his gun!!

The wild dog always uncovers the truth

Just stared at it for another night while I get onto finishing the other jeep in the garage - soon - but need to clean the rat hole of a garage out first one this one is out.

Adam came down today and picked up the engine and tranny for the M37. He's gonna need some beefed up suspension!!

 

[zout]

Got into washing it down a little more - still a little more to go

 

[papabear]

Hmmm...the more I look at that "Spot Camo" the more I like it!! Maybe ya should just leave it and touch up the rough spots??

 

[marchplumber]

Wasn't that type of camo done before the "digital" style? What was the type of painting name? Pointalism I believe. When they painted entire picture with colored dots, not brush strokes? You're moving right along Commander! You'd never cut it in the "couch tater" brigade. Lol

God bless

I don't think air force paint will wash off. I have heard the air force stuff is tougher than nails

 

[Ferroequinologist]

Looking outstanding commander!

The seats are just sitting in there, you can just pull them out.

Navy Grey- FS16081

Battleship grey- FS36118

I was thinking battleship grey would be awesome for the underside/frame and wheels.

 

[EMD567]

I think you are all grey............

Ferro - may I have the honor of introducing YOUR REAL 37 to you - you might have never seen it like this so I thought I would take a moment and show you what the truck really looks like - I could no longer stand those huge arse stars on there so they were the first to go
