Kevin,
I'd love a Woodland Camo paintjob to match our old M-817 ... but ...
When I saw NapcoMan's H-3 in Desert Khaki a few years ago, I thought THAT was COOL! I originally thought we'd paint the bus to match our '49 ... Then I priced that color (Jaguar Red is the best modern match) .... YEEEEOOOOWWWW!!! Forget THAT!!
My painter ( a local who is well respected and does superlative work) said to get a gallon of primer/sealer, two gallons of base (Desert Khaki) and two gallons of clear coat.
I jokingly asked the paint store rep what Krylon rattlecan Desert Khaki went for by the case ... But I don't think my index finger would be up for that.
We'll see.
Today, I finally finished removing all the lights and reflective decals. Even the "International" logo at the top side corners. I'm thinking of eventually putting an "International Farmall" decal back up there
And a classic IH on the front.
Saturday was the paint.... Tuesday will be the 6 new tires...
Oh well, at least my kids won't be spending it on stupid stuff after I'm dead.
And yes, that last picture is a Photoshopped image to show, approximately, what the new paint job will look like.
