ashley Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Hi all, next saturday 11/3/2006 i am attending a birthday party of a fried of mine. Not unusual you think :roll: but on this day my mate wil have his kublewagen (which has been restored by his friend) officaly handed back as a restored vehicle instead of the trailer load of bits he originally had. The guy who has done the restoration is bringing his schwimmwagen and as far as i know he intends to take it to water close by :shock: :shock: if all is well i shall take the jeep along and i hope to get some photos of the event.

berni Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 the suspension isn't fantastic in a Schwimm so if you have any wobbly bits they need to be well upholstered. :lol: berni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
