My A-2

This was taken after I brought her home from Reno Nevada.

Here she is stripped down and getting spot blasted. I chose not to strip her entirely. Not much corrosion but a lot of sand packed in various places. I took this picture to document the markings I found.

Floyd,

The shop is full with a 73 Olds 98, 03 Yukon, and 98 Dodge Ram. The A-2 is parked in front of the garage. I have my 96 Caddy Fleetwood in one space and the A-2 in the other. The shop and the garage aren't heated so it gets cold when the mercury falls. The shop is divided in half with the other side setup as a barn with a dirt floor. Not my idea I bought the place as is. I have my tractor and riding lawn mower in it with a bunch of other crap. Eventually I'd like to put a door between the shop/barn area and black top it. Also a heat source would be nice.

Montana! Yeah, heat would be a good thing. Do you have a family of 26 with that fleet of automobiles? Just checking the tires could take all day. :P . All in all a pretty nice place.

No just 4 kids ages 2,9,11, & 13. The 73 Olds was something I wanted long ago. 96 caddy, well it was the last year built. The Dodge Ram I bought new in 98. The Yukon replaced my 92 Olds after I totaled it a few months ago. Damn deer had a death wish and walked out in front of me when I was doing 65mph. This happen around 5:30 am so it was pitch black out and overcast.
