side curtains for sale

Post by Ernie Baals » Wed Feb 14, 2018 6:49 pm

Hi
I have a few sets of side curtains for sale
M38A1s
Can any body tell me the difference between M38 and M38A1 side curtains?
The ones i have a compared to a M38A1 and they were the same
Are M38s different
Asking $75 each,
I will send a picture of the set i am ready to ship as they all have a slightly different shade of olive drab
Thank you
Ernie

I can't get to my canvas for a while, M-38A1 curtains are a bit longer than M-38, but due to natural shrinkage, NOS M-38A1 can be hard to tell from shorter M-38. I have had a lot of NOS M-38/M-38A1 Side Curtains, and the dimensions are all over the place when comparing. Hopefully there is an ORD number on the curtain.

Different shades of what is assumed to be the same product. So much for correct O.D. Color Spec. :wink:

Joel,
I have told many people, I install flooring for a living.
Even in today's world of computer controlled manufacturing, I cannot match carpet, or vinyl tile or sheet goods from one production run from another.
The dye lots vary greatly, even though they are all the same specs
