New Pictures Posted

Post by Tim Powell »

Hey Crew.
Posted a few new pictures on the last page of our photo album.
I want to qualify something! Our 1948 Willys is a civilian vehicle. I know that.
We painted it O/D to match the M-37. It's not supposed to be original.
It's a tribute to it's ancestors who did serve.
It's only job is to make Folks smile when they drive past. That's All.

Tim, very nice looking CJ!

A good friend of mine has a 1947 CJ that he is currently restoring. To get around the "not used by the military" problem he plans on painting it up as a period Israeli Defense Force vehicle and throwing a pedestal mount and M1919 in the back. He showed me a couple of reference photos that he'll follow to get the markings correct, it should look pretty slick when it's completed.

Thanks for the help and the kind words. Just finished adding a few more pictures I took today.
Had to move the vehicles out of the shop to get at the Wheel-Horse. Something about cutting the grass?????????
Off to work tomorrow. Be back in a week.

Your motor pool looks great, Tim! That little jeep sure has come a long way since you acquired it.

That flat 24087 paint looks really good. I like it much better than semi-gloss.

Are you going to put the cover on the bed of the truck?

Hey Guys!
Just arrived home after a good long week on the road!
Still have some cleaning & painting on the Jeep. The paint is manufactured right here in Burlington Iowa. "Diamond Vogel Paint Corp."
We do plan on a rear cover for the "M" as time and money allow!
