    4th Semi-Annual Texas MV Rally

    Wow! I hadn't heard. Let Jennifer know our thoughts are with her and let me know if I can help with anything (based on my prior career). I'd love to attend but I've got the M1010 on eBay right now hoping to get rid of it, the deuce is doing the Operation Homefront Food Drive this weekend and...

    W/ow or W/W - What does that Mean?

    I always try to bid on the "without wench" trucks. One at home is enough to deal with. I can't imagine getting her any help ganging up on me.

    Israeli Defense Force Paint Color Late '60s

    Thanks for the picture. That's the top layer color of mine but what I'm going for is the lighter shade from the 6 Day War. I posted this picture on the previous page but here it is again.

    M1010 Home Again

    It is the perfect hunting rig. Sleeps 4, has heat AND AC, and there's even a spot on the back to hang your deer, pig, zombie, or whatever. And if you buy today I'll even throw in a 24v diesel hot water heater so if "Stinky Pete" is one of your huntin' buddies you can tell he to go shower...

    M1010 Home Again

    Thanks guys. Ian, you're more than welcome for a visit. Just fly in and drive home. I'm sure you could use another 1010.

    M1010 Home Again

    Got set up at the San Antonio Auto Dealers show this morning. We're directly across from the street rods so see how well we draw compared to them. There were a couple of vehicles that dropped out so I set the camo net up as a triage spot to fill some of the room. I really wish I had been able to...

    M1010 Home Again

    I probably wouldn't have for a while but the Alamo MVPA is setting up at the San Antonio Auto Dealers Show and, while I'm no longer a member, they were short vehicles so asked if I could help out. The 1010 is whole lot easier moving around new cars than the deuce is. I took one of the small...

    M1010 Home Again

    It doesn't look like I'll have time to finish the side Cross panels so they're just going as-is and I'll worry about them after the show. One thing BARRMAN can confirm is that 1 gallon of Rapco Tan CARC substitute will not cover this entire truck adequately (and I was too cheap to buy 2...

    M1010 Home Again

    I got the caduceus done. They're a long way from perfect but better than what was there which was nothing. I still need to stencil US on it but had to see how it looked on the truck.

    M1010 Home Again

    Started working on the Crosses this afternoon. I sanded down the smallest panels which are where the US Medical Corp emblem goes. Unfortunately I'm going to have to make a copy of the symbol off the net and try and cut a stencil out for it. Not the easiest thing since it's got so many curves in...

    M1010 Home Again

    It's currently in the classifieds so I won't go in to greater detail here but what I really want is a M1031.

    M1010 Home Again

    Ran great! It's nice not to have the "lost pedal" issue when you slow down now. As promised, here's some more pics. The 1st one shows the Red Cross panels. The left ones show Tim's new paint job and the right ones show what the other side looks like. We're doing an exhibit at the San Antonio...

    Weiser, ID

    I remember driving by there back in the '80s when he'd have a couple of things sitting up on dirt ramps our front. Unfortunately that was waaaaaaay before I got in to military vehicles.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Well I picked my M1010 up from BARRMAN after he painted it and put a rebuilt IP in. It turned 37000 on the way home.

    M1010 Home Again

    Just pulled in the driveway bringing my M1010 home after some fine work by BARRMAN. New paint and a rebuilt IP and it's like I have a new (to me) vehicle. It's a shame to get rid of it now that it's all perty'd up. A little too pooped for detailed pics tonight but here's 1 until tomorrow.

    Contact service vehicle welder

    But the M1010 makes the perfect hunting rig. It sleeps 4, has heat AND A/C, and there's even a swing out arm on the back to hang your deer/pig/beef from. The only thing missing is the built in beer cooler but I'm sure an enterprising individual could fab one of those easy enough, maybe use the...

    This is definately next on my list. If anyone wants to trade one for a freshly painted M1010 let me know!

    Exterior Latex/Acrylic House Paints

    That's what I'm using. I'll try the other suggestions (screen, pressure, etc) on the next go around. Not dealing with the gun but no truer words were ever spoken. Since I don't like sanding all that much I figure why not just rinse it off with a pressure washer. Yeh it was stuck like glue in...
