I am going to put some kind od WW II bomber art on it. There was a B-17 called "Idiot's Delight". I was thinking of that. Maybe some yellow stencil lettering, little Japanese flags (kills). I can't do and German "kills" insignia's because those were swastikas.
I've poured through hours of internet photos of bombers and such. I've been drawing up some Flying Tigers ideas (the open shark mouth) but can't find a way it looks right.

Make some art with a barracudas head on one side with the end and screw from a submarine on the other, that would look cool.

Now that would be even cooler! Have the fish turn from organic to metallic somewhere right about the middle. Put some rivets and metal plates. I do not have the artistic ability to draw it but I can see it in my mind.

If you're going to do kills, it should be Chevy Bowties and Ford blue ovals too.  :smilielol:

I just drew this up. I was thinking of adding "SC408" under the "USN".

I was thinking of trying to find some desert tan since that is all I have seen for the last 5 years but I'm now riverine and even over there were rollin' in green boats.

The drawing looks good.  I cant believe how much I like that flat green.  Makes me wonder how other Mopars would look "flat"   :ylsuper:

Have not seen one in desert tan but seen a lot of vehicles that color in the last year myself.

Looking good, an AAR hood would complete it for now.
