fesm_ndt Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Spotted this today Had the wd marking on it and a date of 1942 looks like quilted leather like a straight coat and very large with leather straps [ATTACH=CONFIG]62262[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woa2 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Cold weather bonnet cover for British vehicle? Looks similar to ones I've seen in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rippo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Hello, I would agree it looks like a bonnet cover, possibly a bedford one either MW or OY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fesm_ndt Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Well I finally found time to go up and grab it. Cost me 200RM which is around 40 quid so not bad for a bit of history One rope is off and there is a small bit of damage but all in all, not too bad for something this old being used to cover old Land Rover parts The mind boggles what a cold weather bit of gear is doing in Malaysia. I guess army logistics hasnt changed in the last 70 years [ATTACH=CONFIG]63771[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]63772[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]63773[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]63774[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]63775[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
