    Just for anyone wondering: this is an LMTV-Light Medium Tactical Vehicle, troop carrier version. The single rear axle indicates that it’s light.
    Then there is the MTV Medium Tactical Vehicle, which has two rear axles. 63B all wheeled vehicle mechanic, I worked on and drove these trucks for 8 years in a reserve unit in Idaho. Also, in Virginia we used up-armored versions with trailers to haul pipe for IPDS- Inland Petroleum Distribution System.
    Thanks for this and taking me back, really brings back some great memories.

      I can say for a fact that 7th Cav Regiment is An active Cav Regiment though. Cause when I was with 6-9 CAV 3 BCT 1CAV. One of the other Battalions in our BCT was 2-7 CAV.

I have also learned alot about techniques, what to use and other things. If I make it to Florida I would absolutely love to detail something with you and pick your brain to enhance my knowledge on detailing . I think another thing is seeing the issues you deal with and how you manage to stay positive and endure through it all. God bless you.

    The only thing about painting over rust is that you don't know where the rust was in order to treat it. I understand this was a quick fix and to make it look better ( and it came out awesome ) But in a perfect world ~maybe a rust converter first then the camo tan color. The cross logos are tough to paint, perhaps a sticker logo in the future would work best. Nice job overall on that military beast.
