2009 Memorial Day

Finally got most of the details worked out, put in some fuel, and set out for Middletown Springs VT. A 20 mile round trip seems like a day in the saddle with this rig. The jeep belongs to the state VFW Commander. Also, a shot of a couple of friends checking for safety equipment....

Got to get the sewing machine going next, I found 25 yards of WWII canvas material so it shouldn't be long now.

(sorry, the jeep mentioned above seems to be on another shot...)

That looks awesome! Is this the one you had posted restoration shots of last year? Or am I thinking of another poster?

Regardless, looks great. And New England is some beautiful country......

sweet truck


clinto... join us with the nice weather up here in New England

That is one sweet looking old rig. Thanks for posting!

Clinto- Yes, this is the same one. I still have a bunch of stuff to do including finding some bumper parts and a MU-2 winch to replace the CCKW winch that's on it now. I'm resisting the urge to pay way too much from our friends in Iowa. I'll have it in a July 4th parade and a couple of car shows this fall if all the details work out. Neil
