Re: Army Truck Pics
Bringing this thread back to life. My 68 build is going to a military dedicated truck. I am painting it olive drab with white painted bumpers and white lettering with the star on the doors which will look worn and faded. I have a forum member who is upholstering my seat and door panels with military canvas to help carry the theme inside. Does anyone else happen to have any military truck pics of our era ?

Re: Army Truck Pics
I just bought this truck 4th of July weekend. It is a decommissioned Army truck. It doesn't have the original bed, but it has all of the placards on the dash.
        Other pictures I have of a random Army truck

Re: Army Truck Pics
Thanks, I have a lot of sheet metal that's needs attention, but my plan is to repaint it OD (olive drab) green and maybe put the white letters on the doors again.
