Enigma

The jeep on the right had the same black star on the bumper.

A bit too soon I guess but will ask anyway... When completed, what kind of look do you want. As new or used?

Which part of the Netherlands is it going to?

Ok, it wasn't VE day but Liberation day (5th of May, Netherlands). With the events for that day cancelled I didn't just want to let it pass without doing anything and took the Dodge for a drive.

Even if it goes ahead there is a small chance people from abroad might not be able to go because of travel restrictions. Still its a few months so things may change before that.

Amazing attention to details.

Good luck! I hope it will be ok.

Weird times indeed. We are under restrictions in the netherlands. Trying to keep distance while shopping is difficult, some people just are stupid. I have sometimes a bit of a smokers couch (never smoked!), so am afrain to couch while outside in fear of starting a panic stampede. So I travel to Backyardville, Islamabathroom and Balconia. It does give me time to finish my Galactica models...🙂 Anyway, stay safe all and hopefully we'll be able to pick up where we left off soon.

Again amazing work, what a skill set you have. Soon you'll drive around yelling in German to get out of the way...

Nope, no succes; ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

The link doesn't work for me. Maybe because I am in the Netherlands?

Only just saw this. Very sorry to hear he passed away. We spend some time during A&E 2012. IIRC we also went to the pub. When he fell ill some years ago I contacted him a few times for moral support. Quite recently I thought about him and considered contacted him and I guess I forgot. Please convey my sincere condoleances to his son and sorry for not knowing it earlier. I think its him on the left in the photo? To Degsy, Rest in peace.

Good to hear things are getting up to steam. Enjoy and hopefully I'll be able to visit in the future.

15 years sounds very good to me. I once drove the Dodge on a tuesday and on the friday after that the battery was completely dead. Luckily I had a old spare that was just good enough.

Welcome A jeep is simple enough although electrics is a bit of black magic to me. Have fun with your jeep!

Wow, what a joy that must have been.

RIP. Not many Dunkirk veterans left.

This morning I got the news that my WW2 veteran friend Owen passed away. He was a Batallion sniper in the 53rd Welsh division, East Lancashire regiment. I met him years ago at the liberation festivities in Den Bosch which was liberated by the 53rd in Oct 1944. Also the only 53rd Div monument in Europe in in the city. I allways enjoyd his company. I am very glad I saw him last October and he instantly recongnised me and called out Olaf!. He was getting forgetfull I was told so I was soo happy he recognised me. Rest in peace my friend, till we meet again. (Portrait photo by Beverly C.)

Thanks, looks simple enough.

Sooo, I am looking for building plans or such for Ww2 barries, if available. I mean the red/white beam you put across a road. I did a searc and some photo's are there mainly of the germans crossing the Polish borders but maybe there are manuals (US?) who specifically adress this. Thanks

I agree with above although judging a future market is a bit of a dark art. Bring someone knowledgeable when inspecting the jeep

I continue to be amazed by the skill you display on this project.

I know the owner, met him on several events. Hopefully it was insured for total loss.

Yes, I am interested if you accept a Albanian cheque and ship through Parcel post to my home in the Ukraine.😁

You're forgiven Degsy. We all make mistakes, even me.
