"Without cushions". We sure know how to take care of our fighters. (sarcasm intended). I figured I would check around before I had some made. I know they are rare birds so I can't imagine a large or even a small market for them. Thanks, L

Ok guys, who has the cushions to fit these?

I bought the shoulder bolts directly from MSG. They are $12 each. As for inner reinforcements I used 2x2x1/4 inch square stock and drilled the holes to avoid as many rivets as possible. That's all that was there originally.

I'm doing the 11xx with wedges. Much easier install.

Scrounging, work the parts circuit, connections, etc. Expect to pay 2k plus for an original one.

Good stuff Crapgame. I suppose I should have been more clear that this was the correct C pillar for that truck.

Hi diluted, Yes this is the exact type that was removed. They used the 3 point turret support. Here's a pic of what the DOD removed.

Temporary fitment of the C pillar. Still working on the roof. Lot of adhesive residue on the underside. Need to order some Armor coat bolts too. Just can't keep the rusty originals on it.

Yes they are rivnuts. 3/8 coarse thread. I have one corner that did not line up. I'll fix that later.

Trying to decide if I want to stay with the original bumper shelf or go with the BAE stand on setup.

Has anyone gotten their SF97 yet?

Tackled roof rust today. After pressure washing I used Kleen Strip metal and concrete prep. It's a phosphoric acid etching and cleaning agent. Pretty mild to work with. For these rust stains I used full strength, brushing it in with a brass brush. Spread it around with a cheap throway brush and...

Only a guess right now, but I'd say maybe could have been a clock for the commander to navigate.

Cleanup continues. Didn't take pics, but that green paint pen someone marked these hoods with comes off with lacquer thinner.

I'm going to experiment this weekend with a sand slurry mixture to see if I can bring the original color back even more. I'll post progress as I go.

That's the fun part of the puzzle isn't it. These things are full of holes, big and small. I haven't done it yet, I'm just trying to get the basic build together and then fill in as I go.

Cleaned and painted the new turret support and tubes. Roof removal next.

Ok. More cleanup. The mess left by the sun parched hook and loop tape comes off with a little elbow grease and a rubber pinstripe removing wheel. Amazon, like $6. It still leaves a cleaned area that is a bit darker than the faded carc.

I can answer that now. It is to avoid any possible or even the appearance of collusion.

Mules, even just the date? Dang, sorry about that. Yep • Do NOT post about future or current GL/GP(GovPlanet)/GSA/eBay (including items for sale in buy-it-now formats)/local/city/state/Federal/estate auctions. You may post about any auction after the auction is closed.
