Oerbi Knoerwens 10 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Im restoring a Munga 6. The "Car-History" says, it is a british Munga and was used by the Royal Air Force in Berlin. You can see one of those Mungas in this video at 01:13 and 02:06. The color of it is Royal Air Force Blue. Perhaps, anybody of you knows the color-code of it. I already talked with "mogmaner" about some pictures, but perhaps anybody of you has got some too. You can see my work at. http://74295.homepagemodules.de/t3801f50-Umbau-in-den-Originalzustand.html Regards Oerbi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oerbi Knoerwens 10 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Thanks. This is my munga 6. To get the car history i used the chassis number. It was a munga of the Royal Air Force, so i decided to restore it that way. The beginning: As u can see, very dirty and ?scruffy? ! The chassis is brought to our work place The new rear bumper bar. The new vehicle frame, primed and coated. Some parts after the sand blasting and galvanised Some laminations and finished parts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
