Odd ones ive heard of have been fitted with a diesel, would this mean a diffrent gearbox would have been fitted too?

draganm Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 it's in France, can't you just drive it home thru a tunnel, even if it's on a flatbed tow? no import tariffs between EU members? looks to be approx. 9 hours away , but if it really is a truck that landed on Normandy with the original stars on it, that would make for an interesting conservation piece.

I afraid that over the last 46 years of restoring and collecting MV's that if I'd had a £ ( or in your case a $) for every jeep, Dodge or GMC barn find that was purported to have landed across the beaches I'd be a very rich man by now Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draganm Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 LOL, i don't doubt it for one second. Short of pictures of a grand-dad driving it home from the beach probably impossible to prove as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
