Paint codes and suppliers?

The side mounted GPMG swingarm was made for the Cdn2 and 3 Jeeps. The Jeeps of the 50s era would have had the pedestal mount in the rear (although not common).

Yes but Alas Mine had one mounted there as the holes match the 67 I have yep both have the holes with the slant to them...and a friend has the mount as well..not one but two right Dan..hint hint? LOL maybe he'll read this and want to make some quick money. I did see while i was under it the mounting plate for the pedisatl mounted MG right in the middle of the floor slightly aft of the seat backs. Hmmm got me thinking!

Okay decided to go with the Rapco people down south and saw the paint i need for the M38 i was thinking of going with the black Zinc Oxide primer as i thaought easier to cover with the OD green finish as oppossed to the Grey Zinc Oxide or red Oxide...any thoughts on this that may make me change my mind before ordering...? thanks Casey soon to be Headcase...LOL

I would go wtih grey as it is easier to see if you have proper coverage.....even on the second wet coat.... you will probably find some areas you though was covered but was only misted over. Yes scratches will show easier...... but you can and will toouch up anyways..... my least favorite would beblack oxide for the same contrasting reason....

Don't forget to mix paint very well.......
