It’s a military vehicle and must b a fun project.
After painting 60or more MVs since I starting playing with them in 1995
I like to paint how I feel now , as u can see a LS in camo
And it looks good for Me.
As for the mutt rob ,it’s dead on right and there is no right Lol
Paint jobs on a Canadian mutts we’re all a little different by the fact that some guy with a paint brush was told to just paint it all green and if u run out to-bad
Next time

All the mutts in Alberta’s scrap yards here varied by up to over 15” on color lines sometimes
And white and almond for winter place ment is is a hole other
Can of worms that took me 8 diffrant halves in two diffrant yards to figure
Out.

There is no right with Canadian camo in those days Evan
If they had a drawing to go off of the patterns would just come out
Diffrant


It’s ok to say it Rob
That’s the best looking Canadian mutt u have seen
Lol

Second or third best Marcos. I was always partial to mine in it's original semi gloss green. The one vehicle I should never have sold. Since then, I painted up an uncut one at work. I bought 30 of the 31 M151A2s that were in Shilo.....this was the one that got away. The supply guy picked the nicest one for the museum, then base maintenance intentially ran it out of oil, threw two rods, and removed all the driveshafts and gears out of the transmission. But what a body....
