This site is a continuous source of surprise and information!

A Nuffield Jeep, a bob-tailed lightweight Jeep, never heard of one before! Will be interesting to follow this refurb.

Were they mass produced, or a limited-numbers type thing?

Spent today working on the nuffield got the body off along with the axles and found the jeep has been made longer by 6" back to an 80" wheel base so cut out the a fending bit to put it back to 74" will have to do the same to the body later

I don't think Citroman was suggesting you had anything to do with that welding.......but my god that was a terrible way to stick metal together, the welder I used to work with would say of it "wouldn't hold small coal".

An interesting project!
