Haha. I know. I just hate not being in control of this. I’m staying busy with the FJ45 so I’m not dying yet.

Got this from him this morning

lightening holes...
 
Lots of holes...

For simplicity I wanted him to just add material to the outside. Blend it in and move on but he’s doing it right.

If I had known this was going to end up not being a pure battle pig I would have sourced a better tailgate.
 
I got a good beacon and swooped in and have the downed Pig in the Jolly Green and am returning to base.

Prisoner looks rough but was able to get into the rescue chopper under its own power.
 
Grabbed a quick family picture before the rain hit. Unloading all the parts. Cleaning up the mess.

9 months gone with very little to show for it.

I know better.

Chapter 2 begins now. Onward.

I spent the day cleaning 9 months of rats nests and dust off P-o-P and came to the decision that I’m going to get the glass back in it and patch the holes and rock it full war pig style

No paint for now. I’m going for reliability and will worry about paint down the line.

Wow what a great assortment of fjs. If I were a collector, yours would be what I would shoot for for sure!

Once my daughter is done with my 100 I may turn it into a LHD 70 series. I’d be pretty set then.
 
You dont need a fancy paint shop. All you need is "click click click, spssss, sps, spssssssss, click click click" black of course.
