GPW 116047

Found for sale, un-restored covered with grease, caked dirt, but running and stopping. Presumably from Montana, since her last registration was from that State. This rebuild was more of a make over than a rebuild. She was found to have minute cases of rust. My friends and I disassembled, cleaned, and sealed any remaining surface rust with a converter, then re-primed and painted over the lightly ruffed up existing paint. We revealed the original blue drab DOD # and stars nothing else like unit numbers were found, probably because the Front bumper was replaced before and rear bumperettes are missing.
