Dan put together a great article with a few pics I hadn’t seen about restyling the MB in the field. Very cool stuff. Thanks to Roy for forwarding it.

Bob took this photo and reports, “I shot this today in waynesburg, Ohio. It’s a 1945 GPW that went up for auction. It was good looking from 25 feet but had some bad floor repairs, a bit if painted over rust, wrong motor, wrong seats, etc. went for $4700. There were a lot of little parts to be had also but nothing special.”
The seller notes this is a “Korean War Replica”. . . . sigh. I can’t make this stuff up. Nice looking jeep though.
