Black exterior with a white interior? Call that truck "the Oreo". Looks good, Ed. Always liked the 5 tons.

Re: Pics of my new project
Aloha...since I was raised on the Hawaiian islands I decided on a Hawaiian named Vietnam gun truck to replicate...the truck we're going to do is the 8th group 2nd TC "Madam.Pele"....I've been in contact with a 2nd TC guy who helped build Pele in the summer of 1968...the REALLY expensive part will be outfitting her with correct firepower... even replica weapons are big $$$..here's some in country pics of Pele.

Cool truck
P.S. Speaking of gun trucks, I wish Ralph was still around to chime in.
