Good effort Vic. Looks like you have an iPhone.
Did you do the restoration work? Do you have all the ancillary gear to jazz it up?
Cheers

Was it a Willy's Overland Dot? Always wanted one of them years ago. Then Landcruisers and Patrols turned up.

Yes iPhone....I don't know how to turn my pic so it is the right way around.
I have 4 jeeps , 3 Willys MB and one Ford GPW .
This one is my late brothers project that he never got to finish ( passed Dec 2019).He did most of the chassis work and repaired the rust in the tub .
I had the tub sand blasted then set about preparing to paint and painted. I rebuilt the motor ,all new brakes etc .
Have yet to be road tested so not sure what that will reveal.
Has shovel, axe and jerry can etc ,not sure if a rifle carrier is in his shed . (400kms from here)
I am pleased with the way it has come together, runs very nicely as they all do .
Cheers
Vic

Interesting that the front sping shackle has only one drop arm.
