    Tim it looks most exellent! What are you going to do for your running lights keep with original or upgrade to the larger ones? I'm just wondering.

    Tim, Looks Killer. Thanks Man I now have an M-715 complete under my belt for painting. Mine will probably be finished next. Unless another member shows up with one? The XL's are awesome, really makes the truck. Oh yes, Tim I believe has a rear power lock. Tim helped out with an M-715 brushguard, custom made. We had a good time and accomplished a lot. Thanks for letting me take it for a spin. I really needed this weekend for inspiration. Fisherman

    Thanks, all. I keep stopping by the window to look at it. It's just soooo strange to see green! Soon after returning home, I discovered I had already shot my passenger seat back with the 24052, so I did the bottom and it's in the garage drying now. Tomorrow I'll put it in the truck and reinstall the gauge panel in and start working on the windshield.

    I'm going to run the stock lights. In fact, the truck came with plain old trailer lights. I got those off a trailer in Utah.

    Your truck looks good. Seeing it nice and green makes me want to go work on mine.

    Paint's cheap, Rob! What was especially nice about the painting was that I had someone who knows what he's doing running the paint gun. That Fisherman's an artist! I was walking around it today with a rattle can to hit all the obscure spots that he missed (you know, tucked in behind the tie-downs and such), but there was NOTHING he didn't get! Seriously!

    Wait, I take that back. One of the t'case levers was partially covering the other when he painted, so I got to hit that!

    What's really funny is how the word has spread in our neighborhood about the paint job! You see, I always used the yellow M715 to haul a fraction of a yard of crushed rock in from our pile to fill in the potholes, a task my neighbor and I attend to routinely. Well, I showed him the green and between him and the next-door neighbor, the whole neighborhood's been coming by to see it. I'd better get finished with the windshield frame.

    Today I picked up a 50" piece of 1/2x1/2 .065 square tubing today and will have a machine shop cut a 3/16" groove through it, then get it tacked onto the windshield to hold the canvas top that's due to arrive any day now!
