Hi Everyone

Hi everyone.
My first posting on this forum, so thought I'd say 'Hi' to start with. A complete newbie to having a historic military vehicle, I've only had my CCKW 352B1 for about seven weeks now, so please be patient with me, if I pose rather 'basic' questions from time to time . Unusually it is painted in US Navy colours, and from what I can gather has been for at least 10 years. In the short term I will retain it in the Grey (which I have just partially refreshed), but might revert it back to OD next year.
I used to do lots of car maintenance, but that was over 20 years ago, so I'm pretty rusty in that area, and am having to re-learn lots of stuff.
I have very little history about the vehicle, and my knowledge of what is right and what isn't is to say the least no existent. Weather permitting I hope to take a bunch of photos soon, and post them here for those with more experience than myself to critique.
Funds permitting I will change all the canvas this year, as the existing set is pretty tired.
Kind regards to all
Vulture
