YES, lots of pictures, your AC as well! Be sure to lock that baby tight, she might take an unscheduled trip to Mexico:)

You are correct, got my nomenclatures all fouled up!

The tan is "383 tan" and available from RAPCO. I used their 383 green thinned 2/1 with Xylene in a $20 Harbor Freight gun and I think it came out pretty good, also my first vehicle to paint.

Brilliant staffing in the co-driver's seat:)

Nice photos! That gives me an idea for a photo essay, my MVs and static MVs, we have plenty around here...

Definitely a CUCV, I don't know how to tell if it is a M1008 or a M1028 without looking at the VIN/data plate, I suspect GL has the VIN number noted wrong. It looks like it was painted tan with a camper shell or troop seats installed

I don't think that VIN is correct, or if it IS, then I don't think it's a CUCV. Copied from the CUCV FAQ: How to decode your vin number: 1st digit = Nation of Origin -- 1 = USA 2nd digit = company -- G = General Motors 3rd digit = division -- B = Chevrolet, incomplete example contract...

This has been added to my list of things to avoid if possible, I bet there is a MAACO in your town...

It is TRULY amazing what a simple coat of paint can do to make a vehicle look 1000 times better (just don't look too close...)

I learned that a spray gun will NOT produce acceptable results after the gasket swells up and falls into the pot thereby no longer sealing which allows air and paint to go places you don't want it to... (notice the spots of paint on the ground? You should see the hood, and my left shoe...)

I have MORE than enough 383 Green left to do your CUCV, I will bring a comfy chair and a mermite, find some shade and supervise if you like:)

I should say right off that I have never painted a car with a paint gun, I have never painted anything made from metal with paint that didn't come out of a can with a marble in the bottom. I should also say that WHATEVER the Army used to adhere the two stripes of tape/velcro/whatever to the...
