Hehe... I think I will feel that way after this week. Gotta drop out the
engine and components tomorrow to fix a seal and install a replacement
left rear axle housing. Wish I had time to strip/paint it while the
engine is off, but I need 'er later on this week to move some materials
up to a camp we are building. Moved the rest of it by Weasel this winter
in 4' of snow, but the terrain is Hell on the tracks without snow. Oh,
and I will hopefully be transporting the MULE to the general location
towed behind my Pinzgauer. Now, who ever said that military vehicles
weren't "practical" can kiss my butt :-)

OK, three questions...
1. What is the single strap that goes on the engine guard used for?
2. Where can I get the correct strap AND footman's loop? Repro is just
fine with me.
3. What is the best/correct paint for an A2 which was in USMC service
and who should I get it from?
Thanks,
Steve
