STARS, MARKINGS & NUMBERS?

Post by Tim Powell »

Hey Crew.
Can someone guide me to a good place to find where to put the original marking on my 1952 "M". I need to find out what size and location the stares and numbers were.
I would also like to put my Fathers "nickname" on the truck somewhere? You Guys that drove these old girls in action for real, where did you put your names?
I'll try and have a few more pictures posted today of our progress. Been a bit slow on the photo album pictures. I'll get caught up today! :oops:

I bought my paint mask set from Rick Larsen at Military Stencils, easy to apply, worked great, lots of info on his site: http://www.militarystencils.com/Paint-M ... ts-C9.aspx

You won't find a better source, Rick has been doing this for a long time and knows what MV owners want and sells a good product to them.
