Tried again. Slightly different font. In Writer. No margins. 150 pts for U.S.A., 200 pts for the serial number. I guess Writer knows how to anti-alias, because this looks a lot better than the first one I did. It's also about 1/3 smaller for the PDF file size.
Of course, the ultimate stencil...
I'd still think you'd be better served by keeping the truck's own native wiring, adding a 24VDC-110VAC inverter, such as this http://travelers-marketplace.com/2300-WATT-POWER-INVERTER-MILITARY-24/M/B000J1ANSE.htm for AC power and a 24V-12V DC-DC converter, such as this 24V to 12V DC-DC Car Power...
`Nuf sed.
I'll stick to the M81 pattern in woodland, winter, and urban color schemes for all my vanishing needs.
You think ACU is bad, there are some wacky camo patterns out there. German, for instance. List of camouflage patterns - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Having a supplier of large, graphical, military stencils is a Good Thing(tm), but for something small and textual like the tailgate lettering you showed, you can always go cheapskate and do it yourself.
I didn't have any military stencil fonts on my computer, so I googled "miltiary stencil font...
The only proper response to someone knocking on your front door and greeting you with, "You have my truck." is, "No, I don't." and then closing the door.
For that snorkel to be truly effective, wouldn't you need to do something with the exhaust, like bring it out the driver's side right in front of the rear wheel and straight up the side of the vehicle to exit above the cap?
If it had the hydraulic lift and working AC units, then you could feel like you'd stolen it.
... BTW, how much was your high bid?

Last Friday, June 11, around midday, at the Kroger gas station on south Indiana-40 in Terre Haute, I saw a civvie flagbed, I think a Ford F350, with an M105 on the back, towing a second M105 with a third M105 in the second M105.
What's the legality of going tear-assing down those cleared rights of way for the high tension lines? I'd think if caught, the power company could press tresspass charges if they wanted to be pricks.
Likewise, I'm assuming, possibly incorrectly, that you're geocaching on your own land. What's...
Blythewoodjoe: Carp like CARC.
Hmmm. Kinda makes me wonder how such ... objects ... react once submerged. Trading hydrodynamics for aerodynamics, might the Corsair have actually glided in for a perfect three point landing on the sea floor?
Your buddy looks like a grinnin' idiot in the driver's seat in that second pic. Can't say I blame him.
How much chassis flex that thing have in an attitude like that?
But at 45 feet, I'd seriously like to dive one that happens to be upright and find where the driver's seat was, sit there, and make BRRRRRRR noises with my mouth. Wait... I might drown.
They only want to deal with metal recyclers and the recyclers don't want to deal with the hulls. They don't want to sell them through GL/GSA/GD, so... Helloooooo environmentalists!
Thing I'm noting is... 45 feet of water. You can almost see down that far. SCUBA would be trivial. What would it...

:cry: :doh:
Kinda like me and the way I park in front of the house, curbside. I'd discovered that when my Crown Vic is right where I want it, I can look to the right into my yard and two of my fence posts line up perfectly. So, I just back up slowly until those posts line up and then put it in park. No...
I could be mistaken, but I read the narrative as he used his new CUCV to haul his M105 home.
This is also prolly not the word you might want to hear describe it, Mules, but it's the best word I've got for it...
It's pretty.
