  2. French postal service is expensive.... any experience with those? https://jeepest.com/fr/
  3. Nicely made seat, it look s a bit if came from a church...😉
  4. You say the tappets are metric, they might have been have replaced in france during the war?
  5. Or an old school repair with an u-shaped plate bolted in?
  6. Why do british vehicles often have only one headlamp?
  7. The joke in Belgium over the poor road ability of the iltis was that they were really made for winding off-road tracks...
  8. They use the same acid trick on watches to remove broken steel screws in the movement... 😉

  10. Try in Belgium, the army there did sell a lot of them if i am correct.
  11. Magnifique, this monster. Strange this army vehicle has an civilian registration.
  12. Stupid the year doesn't say much. I bought 4 good used tyres from the 60s at a french scrapyard for my 50s 2cv. I used them for 25 years without any poblem as tread use. But you should keep an eye on them.
  13. It's rather old was used on cars and tractors, and it seems to be rare see the price they ask for this unrestored one... a 2 cylinder model. http://www.depanoto-boutique.com/magneto-nilmelior-type-24-2-cylindres-c2x21358839 Here an contempory ad from the british branch of the company from 1908.
  14. Did some research following makes had models with round radiators: Dion-Bouton, Schneider, Krieger and Berliet. But they often had Solex radiators with a 3 arm reinforcement in front. The other makes Chenard et Walcker and Delaunay-Belville. They made big cars but i don't know if they also made trucks in this period...
  15. I can think of some kind words the officer has for his men.... 😉
  16. Did this see nice postcard with Fokker? being towed through a french village.

  18. Strange indeed, i had an old Michlin wheel that was reinforced with discs rivited on there but this was completely corroded. I gave it to a friend who did hang it on his wall as decoration ;-) Good luck with the rebuild.
  19. Other question doesn't this type of wheel collect dirt inside?
