I can get anyone here that wants it a larger copy in TIFF or JPEG format. When I originally posted it, I resized it small in order to get it under the forum size limit. But I can send larger copies to individuals who want it.

What would you like to know? Are you looking for paint colors? A specific pattern? There are several of us here on this board that could help you with the pattern you are looking for, whether it be the current 3 color NATO pattern, or one of the older original seasonal 4 color MERDC patterns...

Hello Bob, yep, the M715 pattern is what I used when I transferred it over to the M880. It is nearly identical to what was used on the M880's. I've seen the M880's in Ghostbusters, but didn't know about the ones in heartbreak ridge. I'll have to keep an eye out for that movie to rent it...

Slick looking tailgate there Bob!! makes one tempted for a moment to consider leaving the truck in the red paint. I would like to note that although this is the correct tailgate for a civy Dodge pickup from the late `70's, it is however incorrect for the M880. Dodge decided to bring back the...
