A nice frosty January day in the Northeast.  Perfect for a little photoshoot in the snow.  See you folks on Thursday.

Thank you Dave!  Dennis definitely has the gift of gab😂  He indeed does have a vehicle or two....we will have to work on getting them into the show this year!  Pat's jeep will be here soon for some shakedown cruises....tub and frame back together again....Happy New Year!

Thank you Nick!I was hoping you would chime in.  Best guess....some type of grease or residue from the spare tire.  As I mentioned in the video, Pat D got the top with his GPW....and it had this stain on it when we installed it on Murph...just to kinda see what it looked like.  Sounds like we best leave it alone.  Appreciate the expertise Nick!

Part of the brethren 😂  "I'm fixin" to.....one of the best Texanisms ever!

Ha!  I used to fly a particular airplane that had a 100% unreliable gas gauge.  We always carried a wooden dowel!  I am still aiming to "finish" Murph.....I know, I know.....but I swear I am going do it!

Happy New Year!

I am thinking about an entire "how to" series on restoring a WW2 half track....now I just need a bigger shop!

I get it Dana.  All these little details really make a restoration pop, but I have spent so much time trying to figure out star washers and grounding straps and I am more confused than ever!  Given that the VR is grounded to the generator anyway, this is belts and suspenders at best, but "we got a war to win" my friend.  Cheers!

They are weird and cool Kent!  Right up our alley. 

Wow!  You are playing rough here Rob!  Hmmmm.....we might have to put that to a vote....
