We had a machine gun mount there on ours, but I removed it as it obsructed the door opening wide enough. Ours did not look quite like the one you have though as I remember.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
We have heavy duty connectors which go to a power distribution unit, which powers a mobile cooker and heating unit for boiling water.. And there was a small fold down bench to hold the cooking unit in place. (we removed all this.) I have seen these units in armoured cars Tanks and recovery vehicles. (although) I believe they are a standard british army item.You might already have mentioned this, but I can't recall:
- Are these (threaded caps?) in the bed for an electrical connection or something?

Yes those are auxillary power receptacles.You might already have mentioned this, but I can't recall:

Here's a couple of shots of the stripping in process. I removed the cheapo tail light, reflector and bumperette. I'll need to get Keith_J to fill in a couple of extra holes the Forest Service put in the recess just in case I ever decide to try and float it.
I don't know anything about drywall work but I can run a roller if you need help priming/painting.I need to keep up with the schedule of my better half so we can work as a team...just have a little more drywall here to properly finish so my better half won't be filing for divorce.
I would recommend working on mechanical now. The yellow will only get easier to remove with weathering. Then the innate ugly USMC paint will remain.
Both WCs were stuck. Luckily a wooden dowel took care of that. The MC had some Dot3 in it but looked pretty clean otherwise.Cool, making progress anyways.
Did the schmutzed up WC actuate freely or was it stuck?
Did the MC have fluid in it?
