Anyone ever thought about painting one in the new Digi pattern, or would that be a MV crime? The last Army uniform I wore was Digi so I thought it might be kinda cool.

Looks great. Our outside painting is over Up-North. Blizzard conditions for the next three days. I guess God is going to paint my Deuce white!:p
Interesting that your mentioned the WHITE theme....

Does anyone have pics of the all white MVs used in northern Alaska in the mid- to late 1970's:?: In my one trip to the arctic, I recall the all white (Including TIRES) wheeled vehicles coming out to the C-130 for support ops.

That looks outstanding! I can't wait to see your next "rush" job!

Really does look good. How'd you clean and prep the front axle?

I used whats called "Turbo D", its like Simple Green, you put it in a spray bottle, spray her down, let it sit for a bit, ( 15 min. )........then you pressure wash it down......works real good, we use it on our old cars and prep wash on new cars/trucks we paint. Before and after sanding........Don't want any "fish eyes".........A guy stopped by today,wants to buy it now that i got it painted. I shot him a high price, i hope he does not come up with the money...I really don't want to sell.....only hade it for a month.......Don't think i will sell.......:cry:
