Time for USMC stencils
Post by binfordm715 on Aug 24, 2006, 2:35pm

I'm going with stencils since A) my hood will be replaced in the not-too-distant future and B) I like the stencil look better!

Being USMC green, I'm going with the USMC stencils. Already picked my hood numbers: USMC 42908 (the numbers are the license plate number of the Collector Vehicle plate I got for it).

Questions:

1) Single line on each side of the hood?

for instance:

USMC 42908

as opposed to:

USMC
42908

2) Semi-gloss yellow? (Any source for a near-correct shade in semi-gloss?)

3) Same "USMC 42908" on the tailgate under the "JeeP" right?

4) What do USMC trucks of this era have on their front bumpers/rear bumperettes?

5) What other markings do USMC trucks have? (TP? Gas filler warnings, etc.?)

Know any source of pics I could look at that are known to be fairly correct?

Thanks!
