Paint texture sample Olympic Latex Rolled on 1009 This is a close-up of the texture on my truck after two coats of Olympic Latex Flat (one of their colors, not the original CARC green).

Texture of Olympic Latex Rolled on my 1009 Close-up shot of how the texture is after rolling on the second coat and letting it dry. Looks rougher than the CARC that was sprayed, but it's a good 10-footer.

yeah, the only spray gun I have now is an old pot gun that I've tried on an old car fender and it's not any good at all. I do want to get an hvlp asap, but for now the rollin' is not too bad. I will have to "cut in" around the small crevices with a brush, but I used to paint houses so that won't...

DANG! I don't have a Deuce (yet), but that would sure put me on the way to owning one..........my wife would make me buy SOMETHING to put all those tires on! (or probably tell me somewhere else to put each one of them). Thanks for the offer though and I hope someone takes them off your hands.

In Desert Shield/Storm,it was for "Allied Forces"

Paint I was a big spender today! I bought a whole gallon of latex flat exterior paint from Lowe's to paint my 1009! No, it wasn't a CARC formula, I picked it up out of the samples ( I was in a hurry picking up materials to build a porch for a family member. It's a little lighter than what's...

Olympic Latex Bought a gallon (yep, only one) of Olympic Latex at Lowe's today, Exterior Flat. I was in a hurry to buy materials for carpentry project, so I just picked one of their samples. (not recommended if you're restoring an MV). I worked til dark on the project, then HAD to try some of...

Beautiful job!!![thumbzup]

Thanks, and yes I am, picked up the paint today. Gonna paint the entire truck green, then maybe camo later on.

how 'bout "spot" ????:-)

Welcome! Welcome from Mississippi!

Nice ! Good looking truck ya got there! Glad yall had a good safe trip in it. You sure the spots weren't there before your trip? If nothing was leaking once ya got it home, it just may have been the way the light hit it at the yard that you weren't able to see them. Either way, very nice...

'09 Quite pleased with mine too. I drove one at FT Lewis, and for 6 months drove one in Honduras, all back in '88-90. I loved the feel, how it was plain yet "comfy" as far as MV's go. I traded a car for the one I have now, and had a lot of money in the car. I tried to sell it, but not many...

Welcome! Welcome from Mississippi! Yeah, keep your eyes peeled, they're out there. Looking for one myself, but it's mostly wishful thinking now. Gotta finish the 1009 before the boss will let me get another.

WOW! Sure is a tight squeeze up in there! That was a close call. Count your Blessings, you just received one walking away from that. So, are you planning, hunting, looking, for another 1008 yet?

Have you looked around for another good complete diff? I'm sure they're out there and affordable.

I hope they git'er fixed up soon and it don't cost ya too much. Were there any other issues with it besides the obvious front end problems in the pics?

Ol' Rusty don't look too bad at all. Welcome. Yes, it's a power plug for radio equipment. So where's the bad rust? The floors?
