Nice. I like the little "blip" on the throttle and corresponding puff of smoke as you pass the yellow sign.

Gimpy - a Four Star General?!?! How the hello do you out rank me? And why don't you have an avatar or signature line??? Jeeeeezz .. . . . .

I'm going to guess that it is the one that is now known as "Diablo" . . . looks quite a bit different now

The chevy crew cab belongs to Kenny Engle :wink:

Mendelsons Outlet in Dayton, OH (~ two hours south of Lima OH) Huge warehouse of electronic and misc hardware there. http://www.meci.com/ http://www.mendelsons.com/the_story.html As gimpy said, if you are coming through Cincinnati, let us know.

Re: RE: Re: SS GA Event lodging Hey now, wait a minute. It is not a nasty rumor. I was just thinking out loud that . . . maybe I could hitch a ride with someone heading south. I would be glad to ride shotgun, share the driving and fuel costs. MV or non-Mv. Although, I haven't even...

Very nice! [thumbzup]

Been waiting all day for a status update. Hmmmm, phone not ringing . . . . Gimpy!, Stretch!, Where are you guys??

I spoke with Gimp by telephone at 0920. He had just met up with Stretch in Columbus, OH, and they were headed east to PA. I asked him if he had his camera with him. He replied "yes". I responded, "good boy".

I've got plenty of pictures, and I can take more if you need any specific detail - . . . just tell me what you need.

I found this picture from the day we went to get it . . .

Here's another . . .

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: 6 Wheels vs. 10 WheelsthereT I don't know how I missed this thread, but here is the video link to which Gimp is referring. It is one of my favorites. It is a large file, so be patient while loading...

A couple of previous discussions to add to the story . . . . http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=13505 http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=11799

I too have painted an MV with latex - my M342A2 in 4-color MERDC (winter, US & Europe, verdant) scheme. Originally, I bought some Gillespie military-type paint (oil based) at the Dayton MVPA national last year. However, when I tried a few test spots, I felt (my opinion) that the "383" green...

Below are a couple of other previous discussions which were centered around McGuyver's M880. He has the numbers of the paint colors listed in one of the threads. I really, really, really like the look of his colors. They seem to look the most authentic to original. Incidentally, I tried...

As others have mentioned, it certainly seems to be a variation of MERDC. This happens to be my favorite, and I tried to duplicate it on my deuce tipper. The very nature of this camo scheme lends itself to interpretation and I bet you will be hard pressed to ever find two exactly the same...

Sounds like you will be heading through Cincinnati - there are a couple of guys here to lend a hand if you find trouble or need a stop. I'll pm a cell number.
