Here is the new addition to thge family. The neighbors have named it "tweety bird". It's a 1980 USN Autocar derick digger truck. Under the yellow paint is the original olive drab. 12K original miles. Can still see the olive drab on the frame and under the hood. Plan on using it around the property this summer after a little fixin up.

Neato,
If it is Ex-USN, you should paint it battleship gray...
I'm thinking about painting a deuce up that way. Looks like that will come in handy.
