robbby

that is AWESOME !!!

Can I send my CMP to you for a Italian redo ??

really you have done a great job , so question, did you clean it all up by snadblasting or just alot of wire wheel time ?, what did you use for a primer ?, that stuff that stops rust or just a regular zinc primer ?

I see things like this and it trully should inspire anyone as to whats possable .

Thanks so much for sharing !

Hello
Very nice job.
I guess you could use the markings for a unit staying in europe in 45-46. Or during the Korea's war.

Thank you for all your comments!!!!

I've do a lot of work

@BCBlitz: to clean from paint I spent a lot of time using wire wheels and sanpaper.I spent hundred euros of it but is cheaper than sandblasting
Than, after repair the boby, I painted all with a regular zinc primer.Only for some parts I used, before painting, a rust stopper....expecially for particular outline parts.

Don't worry...send me your CMP and I'll see what I can do

@NORTH-SHORE: Canadian Dodge is a little bit rare: probably Chrysler made only 12k-18k units...certainly less than US version...

@Bob Carriere: my next project??? GMC CCKW 353, closed cab with hole for the browning


@benbfkt: I guess also for a unit staying in europe in 45-46.Could you give me more informations? Web sites where I can find photos or any infos about these kind of units an their markings?

I'll appreciate very much...

CIAO

Thanks robbby for your help with my questions also what brand and shade of paint did you use ?, hand bonb spray or what did you use to apply it ?

Looks like WWII Khaki brown OD to me.
