MVCC Meeting today, a few MV's showed up

Post by carolinamv »

We had our monthly Military Vehicle Collectors of Colorado meeting today down in Colorado Springs. The monthly meetings move around CO so members can show up that live far away.

Had about 25-30 local members and some staff officers drove down from Denver. A few MV's showed up , I wanted to post some pictures.

What a beautiful day for a meeting, your truck looks great. Wood has nice color to it what did you use to make it stand out so well?

Its Ironwood from South America. I used Boiled Linseed oil on it , same stuff you use on antique gun wood. I will have to take more pictures of the M37. it ran very well and made a nice display.
