Love Jeeps Lots of potential . Nice to see with a 30 watercooled mg on it. How much did the Jeep cost?
Old Fort MacArthur days is always the weekend after 4th of July and next year will be on July 11 Sat. & 12 Sun. 2009 in time for you to fully restore the Jeep and load onto a flatbed truck and drive down from WA?

Well, found out it's going to be a tight squeeze to make next year's Ft. McArthur days, may not be possible at all. My Brother in law passed away this year at the beginning of July, so next year we must go to the 1st year anniversary of his passing, which means we will be in Winnipeg Canada at the beginning of July.
It's still a possibility, but may not be doable due to time and logistics.

Sorry to hear about your brother in law. Maybe you could make it to next year's Marching Through History event in October instead?

A nice Jeep, Mark! If I wasn't so mechanically-challenged, I'd like one of those!! A M1903 rifle is a LOT less complicated!! ;D
