Thanks Ivor

Thanks will pass the info on to the person helping with my restoration when he is back of holiday next week.

Hi Steve (Jessie the Jeep) wonder if you can help as having a bit of a problem getting the distributor to move and seems seized have you any tips or help on how to get it to move. Cheers.

Are you for selling the hats?

Yes all the paperwork, chasis num and army chasis num all match the year of 1960, I am just waiting for my verification letter from the MVT. I hope to pick the brains of the members of the local MVT branch for advice on where they recommend for MOT testing.

Thanks to both of you. I will take your advice on board and I definately will be starting a folder to keep account of the progress. I will also post a few pictures at various stages. Thanks again and I am looking forward to getting on the road and to a few shows in the new year.

Managed to get the photos uploaded along with a picture of the trailer yee haa.

Many thanks for your reply 'jessie the jeep'. I have logged onto your site and wow its excellent. You have answered many questions i have and I will be sure to keep it for referencing and keeping up with things you are doing. Well done for such a good site I have it saved as one of my favouites.

Just bought new project and my first jeep. It needs a bit of work on the engine which a good friend is doing for me. At the minute just trying to get it ready for MOT and registered so I can drive it. I can't wait. Could I just ask does anyone know of anywhere or person near Liverpool that can help me with my restoration as my mechanical knowledge is limited and I will want it sprayed at some stage to desert colour. I don't want to keep asking my friend as he has his own project to be getting on with. I'm having a bit of trouble uploading a picture as my internet is running slow. As soon as it is sorted I will post a picture.

I will post pictures at various stages of my project as I progress along.

Welcome I am new too. You have some nice looking bikes. I have a Hotchkiss Willys jeep that is going to be restored.

thank you the add to your site. I am a new owner of a hitchkiss 201 with very little mechanical knowledge so will have to rely on a few friends 😊.

My vehicle will be changed to a North Africa desert copy and my collection is 1st Battalion Irish Guards WW2 in the same era North Africa prior to moving onto Italy. I too have served in this regiment in the modern era late 70's to late 80's.

Regards Andy
