Excellent Photo Album
Mark, Thanks for posting the photo album. It is clear that you are making progress and I can relate to the unique challenges in restoring the 45 HUP. It was interesting to see the state of the vehicle when you got it, and to compare notes with my '45 project. While your HUP seems to have avoided a lot of abuse to the sheet metal (for the most part), my sheet metal had to be replaced. My frame escaped major damage and included the tool locker. Each has its challenges.
It is good to see another of these unique trucks nearing a restored state. You mentioned five survivors - I know of four - your HUP, my HUP, CWM's HUP and the "farmer's" HUP. Who has the fifth HUP?
Keep up the excellent work, and I hope you keep adding photos to the album. You have inspired me to copy your example and I may post an album on Photobucket in the near future.
