Yeah, Mike...I had a colossal brain fart when posting that. Was doing research for a 48th buddy and had 1 Div on my mind. A momentary lapse of two normally co-active nerve sensors, resulting in lack of cognitive reaction.

Am I forgiven?

well done mike

truly a fine looking truck! The "F" makes it even better.

I have been "scratch-building" a tailgate. I fitted it this morning before carrying on with welding the hinge pieces then the bottom and side reinforcement portions. Ran out of mixed gas for the mig and since it is a holiday the "air" store is closed...should be able to finish it off tomorrow and then start "throwing" paint at it.

Dear Technical Help Line,

I am now pondering my Butt problem...they are non-existent.

Can anyone out there give me a set of dimensions?????

BTW I need them to be "crackless" LOL

Cheers

There were plans for the rifle butt holder in Convoy Magazine, volume 7-1. I don't know if anyone has them available or if that issue is still available from Marc Montgomery. The Convoy plans show a butt socket that is deeper at one end than the other, surviving samples I've seen were the same depth at both ends. I can't tell if this was a change during production for simplicity or a replacement that wasn't built to "official" plan.

CAUTION: I've noticed that the Convoy Magazine drawings have dimension problems. Specifically, the insde dimensions plus the wall thickness stated do not match the outside dimensions given. I don't have data on which dimension is the problem.
