Before and after of my Beatrice...

I figured it was time to do a before and after of my deuce Beatrice. She had a rigged 109 box on the back when I bought her from GSA. After losing a few pounds (the box), 2 cases of rapco spray carc, and almost a year later this is what she looks like. Notice the custom bumper numbers.

This is the only side view I have...kinda dark. I'll try to get a better one tomorrow.

I sold it to Frodo so he can make a new hobbit hut. As for getting it off, its nice to have a friend with M816 wrecker. Thanks again Tim!

I really like how dark it is. Before she got painted, I had to wait for rain to have a good looking ride.

Was that a shelter box? Doesn't look like a 109 box at all. Truck looks good!

It wasn't a M109, it was a ghetto rig/homemade M109 wanna be. It sat on top of the stock deuce bed, and was held on by 8 bolts.

Nice lookin' vehicle, that Beatrice is Glad to see you got rid of the "ghetto" () shelter box. I was never a fan of those ramshackle things. Our mechanics used to build them up on their trucks. I can understand why...didn't want their tools and supplies walking off. But, 109's were not in our TO&E (?????), so they improvised.
