Come on! Man up! Throw your chest out and just tell her........"I am buying a mule and that's final"..........(what time can we expect you come stay on the couch?)

A rail gun would be a nice touch to be sure. I'm impressed with what they can do; but I've always wanted to have a flamethrower to hang in the back to go along with my 3.5" bazooka.

To steal a little bit of jeffhuey's thunder.....this is looking probably lots better than it should / would have under the conditions of the day. You Sir need a time machine, go back to "the day" and get a gov't contract designing these things and get rich. Yours is looking better than anything...

I was told by one of my Gunnies once that it rains when God is crying and it was probably because of something I said. (Not accusing, just passing it along)

I found this while checking out other pics from Vietnam.

Reads like this one is a big reason why I LOVE this site! Set up the lawn chair, get your snacks and drinks and learn new words......they will come in handy when you work on your truck next.

I use regular car batteries on mine also, I also got a little piece of angle iron that I drilled a couple of holes in and used it as a cross brace on top of my batteries then just snug it down with washers and nuts. I strongly, strongly recommend that you get a couple of battery maintainers to...

Nice find and good on you for the recovery / restoration of a piece of history. I am not the Goat expert, but I am Goat owner / operator, so mostly this is just my view of the world of green machines. Gama Goats are a big pain in the butt to work on, I'm tall, out of shape (fat), and have a...

Yup!! What ^ he said. The state of Colorado has been acting like a mini version of the federal gov't. by making things up as they go when they find something they don't like. They don't get the law changed; they just change their mind on how this issue has been dealt with since vehicles began...

Looking good! "If" I was PFC Schmuckatelli riding in the back on a .50 or had me one of them spiffy jump seats to ride on when not looking around for bad guys in the land of live pop-up targets, I'd have a little warmer fuzzier feeling if that big opening in the back had something in it to slow...

What is going into the space between the outer and inner bulkhead? Sandbags? Are you leaving the rear end open like in the mockup or putting in something like a halftrack rear hatch?

I'm liking it! For my $.02 Yankee dollars' worth, in the artillery we named our howitzers, the name was picked by the gun section chief, approved by the battery Gunny and IstSgt., pilots named their planes, tankers name their tanks, even Marine gun crews on the big grey ships of WW2 named their...

I did have to thin it...following the instructions (not manly I know, but I wanted it right)....I think it was like 1/4 thinner to paint ratio.....guessing now. Gillespie has all the info. on their site.

I would have to go dig it out of the shop to check numbers if any are even on it for sizes, but I have used a Harbor Freight paint sprayer for a few years on 5 different military vehicles, using the red oxide primer and Gillespie paints with great results. I hate Harbor Freight tools, everything...

I'm getting dizzy

When I was "making" my truck right I did the same things with my steering wheel (I didn't make V cuts), just filled in the gaps I had, let dry (and shrink), fill the new smaller gaps, sand and eventually paint it. After @ 6 years, it still looks good and it has a couple of cracks back in that...

A few pics of the Goat.

woo hoo! Thanks much everyone.....I was going to post a couple pics of it with an M-60 on the mount to help put it over the top, but my camera went on the fritz.
