This is not a "money making" project...it's a project of love for the Veterans that used the DUKWS and I want to get her out there for them before they are all gone.
I like your plan!

Great plans Larry. Did anyone else note a lack of Clinto patricipation in this DUKW thread?

I think Clinto may have gotten a little "turned off" when I told him we were gonna paint the DUKW bright pink with purple poka dots and put some "spinner" hubcaps on it!rofl

OK...so after over a month of holidays, blaster delays and just down right laziness, the DUKW is sitting patiently on the landoll hooked to the M818 and awaiting transport to the blaster tomorrow.
Not sure how long it will take as the blaster is gonna work on her in between other jobs to keep my cost down.

Anyhoo, I'll take some pics and post them tomorrow night when she is safely nestled in at the blaster's AO.

Oh yea of little faith!!!:confused: Bare metal of course. I know she LOOKS terrible but there is actually very little rot and that's confined to the lower hull and easily cut out and repaired as it's flat panel areas.

You won't believe the difference when we get her blasted and primed.:papabear:

It will be great to see it up and running. If nothing else, just to prove you can stuff a bear inside a duck and drive it around!
