My Sugga saw that picture. I think she's in love!

I brought my vehicle from Sweden to Galveston via RO-RO. It pays to shop around and get quotes from LOTS of logistics companies. In my case, they were all quoting rates for transport by the same vessel, operated by Wallenius Wilhemsen. But the quotes varied by up to 30%! (Wallenius...

Welcome.

Hmmm, interesting that the Collings Foundation, operators of the B-24 flying at Keystone Heights, say they have the only flying Liberator. I just saw the Confederate Air Force's (now Commemorative AF) B-24 Liberator at an A&M football game last fall. Did something happen to it?

Welcome aboard!

I've seen these types of trailers listed on GL as "Light Towers" or "Light Tower Diesel" for example.

Shaping Up Engine Hood and grill complete. Doors hung on the new hinges. Still need to figure out the final bumper and spare tire setup.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome Co. Toy. Would love to see pics of your bulldozer!

welcome! I like your truck!

More Photos - Work in Process Here are a few more photos as my Sugga project proceeds. I'll be painting her FS 24052 Semi-Gloss Marine Corps Forest Green

Military-Style Gauges As part of my Volvo Sugga mods, I need to change the gauge panel. The original Suggas used a deco-style speedo and gauge cluster from the 1940's Volvo taxis! That old speedo looks great, but I have never thought it was appropriate for a military vehicle. I also needed...

Dinhchua, Do you have any Volvo Suggas over there in Vietnam? I like the jeep running water!:beer:

Glad the pictures were useful, Mike. I really like your M109 project by the way!

Thought I'd share some paint samples for those interested in having color comparison of some of the Gillespie Coatings paints. Rapco's samples on their website are helpful, but they aren't the best since they look like they were taken indoors. My pics are outside in bright sunlight. I've...

Desert Camo Hej Ryden- I'm also a fan of the Swedish öken camo (desert) M90/K as used on the ISAF uniforms. I have even considered repainting the Sugga in this scheme, although it's a uniform-only pattern in real life. I've even mocked up a photo of the Sugga in these colors. MVH,

Ryden, Welcome aboard from a fellow Volvo owner. I've got a Sugga I imported last fall from Sweden. Would love to have a hard top 903 as my next MV.

Pockers - You might check and see if the paint stores where you are at are familiar with the NCS color system. It's a very common system throughout Europe, including the UK. But, it is still a color system, not a paint mixing system. The paint shops should be familiar with the colors though...

Welcome. Thanks for posting the pics in your album. Great V100 shots. Can't say I'm too fond of your original Duke Univ avatar. My wife is a Tarheel !
