Last nights GL win and another project later this year. Picking up Monday at WR base.

What I do not understand are folks waiting for invoices - bid closed last night and at a little after 1:00 pm I have my paid invoice.

Project ahead is removal of the 109 box from mine and accessories - chassis already spoken for from another member here. 109 Box will be getting transplanted onto the M923A2 and drop side box getting sold as I will not need it.

Unit needs a softtop at this time but a tarp will work just fine till I am ready - then a full makeover of the unit w/109 box attached and rocking chair platform on the rear for this ole fart.51528021_gl_large_thumb.jpg

Dually noted Swiss - lets see - since Oct last year I have a 1972 Chevelle Malibu done - 1964 Mustang done - PB's WC lookin pretty sweet with a package coming Monday to make it a little more presentable.

AHHH - something about a German CUCV to do coming up and not forgotten about - I'll let that owner get his own thread started about it in due time.
Gotta get the Onan Gen - overhead LED lights - 24v Warn Winch - cb unmounted from the box/chassis - then get the box set on the ground and make some repairs to the seams & come up with a color scheme I want.

Seeing how folks paint these MV every which way and try to stick anything and everything in the fuel systems - look up PLASTIDIPING a car.
Any color imaginable they have - I'll have to think that one over a bit.

Looks like we are doing the same project. Yours might get done sooner. At least i can find out how to do it right before I mess mine up.

Tigger is a little closer for getting the chassis from the 109. All I have left to remove is the holding tank from the rear framework - plumbing connections already disconnected. Remove the body ground to chassis behind the cab. Disconnect each side bed to body bolts (total 4 each side) and this box can be swung.

As from the request above what I was going to do with the dropside - WM and I came to a gentlemans agreement (he was pushing hard to agree) so that will take care of the drop side already being removed.

I'll have to measure each unit for making spacer boards - (use to do this building glider kits so I am very familar with the process). Just getting wrapped around what I can do to get this done in a two day period with what time I have available and keeping anyone else's just as absolutely low to obsolete as I can.
Schedule for lift is not made yet - M923A2 getting towed tomorrow - safest and best way possible.
