2016 at the Hammond Barn

Like Stuart said, good thing you got it plated and on the road.

Well done Bob, great to see you on the road.

The 1945 HUP is now registered, insured and plated as a Historical Vehicle. This put more onus on me to get it on the road before the snow flies. While Bob and Grant were bivouacking at Kingston today, I rolled the HUP out for a quick primer paint job. This was done to prepare for the lusterless olive green paint that I will be shooting on next week - after fixing some bondo issues that the primer revealed.

Now in grey primer:

Not that it would have happened with this particular vehicle, but here it is under new management:

Excellent work Rob. Terrific to see that you guys at the barn managed to get two CMP's registered and back on the road over the past few weeks!
Well done Hammond crew!

Have you decided on markings yet?

Alex, Since this late model HUP never left Canada, and never went into service with any army (although it was part of a Brit Service Order), I think I will just leave it green as seen in the attached photo. Gotta be different!
