Hi Gang,
I am stripping paint off of my 62 M151A1 and am a little confused. So
far I've found several shades of OD, some dark and some light. I realize the
stuff fades over time, but I've found some lighter shades where the sun don't
shine :o) ok, now everyones' smiling, so I'll continue. Could my army jeep
have been a Marine jeep at one time? All of the markings were scraped off
during the civilian repaint that I am "undoing".
Or am I dealing with a case of "paint it whatever they have in the paint gun?
Some of the paint almost looks WWII OD to me. Nowhere does it look dark
shiny od. And, where can I get Gillespie 24087 in VA? I know mark at rapco
has it for $89 a case plus shipping. Mike in VA
