    The rest of the JEEP WILLYS 4x4 1/4 ton 1942 pics.I have owned it since 1982.When I bought it was with Chevrolet OPALA(OPEL) 4 cylinders engine and Jeep CJ-5(1970) transmission and transfer case.I withdrew all them and put all original.Here in Brazil(São Paulo) they offer R$50.000,00(reais) for it($25,000),but is very difficult to find a rich man to sell.

    Hank,here in my city(Santiago-Rio Grande do Sul-Brazil) the RED primer(iron oxide) is only for body(cab & bed).The GREY primer is only used for wheels.It is one of the differences I knew.Some pics of my GMC CCKW 353 1944 I shotted today afternoon.Its paint was red primer and synthetic semi-brightness.

    Hank is this green paint a poliurethane?After the last paint did you apply the 1200 sand paper for polish it and get shine?
  12. Fernando Mendes
    We have sandblaster here too.In my GMC 1944 2 1/2 ton 6x6 I payed sandblaster to do in january 2005.http://www.surfacezero.com/g503/showphoto.php?photo=19596 See the album pics.Now I prefer to do without sandblaster,I love this job.They never do like us(here).It is quiet!
