I've put an FMTV top on mine and was hoping for the best and got the worst. Its like trying to put an M151 top on a MB. It just dosen't go. I was desperate though. Just save and spend the money for the right top. You'll be glad.
Old School
I am looking for the old school 4 color camo. The late 70's and good ole 80's style. Not the NATO crap. To me, that style represents the American military that I fell in love with when I was a kid. M16A1s and pot helmets!
I saw the TM on the 4 color camo pattern for a van style body deuce, however, is there a specific pattern just for the cargo version? Something about those colors and that pattern-- its the only way to paint camo! Any pointing in the right direction would be appreciated.
About a year ago I met the assit. producer for the movie Red Dawn. He still brags about it. It specifically came up that extreme efforts were made to make the Russian equipment look "Russian". The soviet tanks he said were also American tanks with the upper guide rollers removed to make it...
Expect a few huge deuce sales in the Future. I was told the Army got the word to dump all remaining deuces for the FMTV fleet is finally catching up with the guard and reserve units. If this is true, the market will be a buyers one and flooded with deuces.
I live in Metairie,
I have a 5 ton wrecker, tractor, deuce --- I can move it easily. Email back with some details.
Is this JPSO trucks or civilian owned or both?
Blackdog,
Why are you not driving the new MVTR 7 ton wrecker? Is that the museum's 5 ton? Are ya'll Marines or civilian volunteer's? Just curious.
PS - You need to save the M151A2 at MCAS Miramar at their museum. Is just sitting outside.
