Hello from Whistlinwolf


Recommended Posts

Just a quick line to say hello,

 

1942 MB owner, found it in Belgium, February 2004. Went across there on foot with an Asda bag full of Euros , bought it & drove it back to live in good old Yorkshire.

 

January this year managed to roll it end over end, it hurts, doing so is not to be advised!!!!

G/box damaged

Tub front moved across

N/S hub damaged

Combats bent

Bonnet bent, and loads of other stuff :cry:

 

I got a text message from a friend(?) the following day(2nd Jan) to remind me,

 

"Remember, a jeep is for life, its not to be ditched after
