@JTam The M38A1 was the last Willys I owned, the 1952 korean war jeep, still used by the Marines in 1965 when they went into "Nam". They like me, loved the 24 volt electrics, the dampered stearing, and a real quality hood and side screens, not fitted as yet to this nice restored machine. Though it was a factory standard, and the "Hoopset and stays" were 100% factory finish. Brought tears to my eyes when I saw these I would love some 1/56th machines of this baby but the only printed one I can get is linned and in this scale thats a big No. Thank you my friend for once again really giving this old fossile some great photos, and bringing back some grand memories.

Glad you were finally able to see the pictures.
Picture threads are pretty internet intensive. If you have slower internet it just may be taking each page a LOOOOOONG time to load.

@JTam Thank you very apreaciated nabed for my folder. In the second Photo theres Two M1A1 jeeps a Fast Attack special forces and my baby a M38Ai showing her grill. I think the "Grey" MB jeep is a "See Bee" but need to see the black markings to be sure (colours spot on though). Fantastic day out by the looks of it . Sadly Eileen and myself missed the Tactor/Tank show at Bridgenorth on Sunday, both our spines let us down. Your pictures made up for that, and we had a bad rain storm anyway. TV is fixed new box arrived still enjoying the book Love Geoff.
