I've spent like 5 hours a day, for the last 3 days

Post by Deadguy »

just putting on the "full winter enclosure" from Beechwood canvas. Way more complex than the civilian version! It doesn't help either that I'm missing parts. The door/side curtain rod cups (those little things mounted on the body sidewall that the tip of the rod rests in), foot man loops, and rope track (for the doors). Or that none of the holes for the footman loops are even there, and I've broken two drill bits hollowing them out! Next up is the in cab heater and turn signal upgrade, I'm that will be an ordeal as well! The heater I have the military instruction manual for, but the turn signal upgrade, I only have what I printed out from Wes's online files. Better than no instructions, but there is alot I'm still trying to figure out.

1952 M38A1. The turn signal kit is a 1954 military issue for "M series vehicles".
