I have been wanting to do some more work on my '42 GPW...but the weather
will not co-operate !!! These pictures are about 20 minutes ago..5 May 2001
!!!
I am going to paint the GPW with "original" Government Issue paint..I have
it in 5 gallon pails. Took me about a half hour to get it mixed...was pretty
well lumped up in the bottom. Sort of like that old window putty. Never
throw away old GI paint because it appears to be spoiled... I have salvaged
every pail of paint I ever tried to save...even cans dated 1944 - with
patience and a lot of mixing. If you mail me off list I can go into detail.
Have a look at...
