Looks like you got a good start for a project going on there. How long until you Demob?
With spring almost in the air, you will be getting home just in time to enjoy the weather change as you get into this, Chesapeak is a northern town yes?

And I had to laugh at the hood pins, yes I agree, they are evil....

Good luck and if you are not going to jibber jabber, then post lots and lots of photos !!
Well post pics even if you do yakk a lot
Thanks, I'm active duty in the Navy. Its definitely in a lot better condition than most I have seen, most of the body work has been done already, Theres a few spots in the floor that need some new sheet metal where the PO didn't weld in, the doors look bad on the out side but I looked it over after aquiring a decent door for the drivers side, and realized the guy put new sheet metal in just did a ****ty patch job on the skin. But i'm sure I can smooth out the welds and use a little filler to smooth it out. I was a little irritated to see that he just bolted the cab corners on over the existing ones. I'll be pulling those and hopefully they are reusible so I can cut out the old and weld in the ones he bolted in. I will be posting lots of pictures. There should be more to come shortly. I'm waiting for the weather to warm up a bit more before I start in on it hard.
