Chris Hall Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Yep, looks like it's been in French service, lots of incorrect parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey089 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Are..the famous auction spiel "believed to have served" .. a 1945 built Jeep would have never been in Africa, or unlikely to have actually ever seen any ww2 service in Europe before the war ended 8th May 1945 !More likely it was supplied from the US under the scheme to re-equip the French and other European Armies after the war in the Pacific ended in September '45 Like button :clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
