Old Shed Jeep

4 Attachment(s)

Was pleased to be given the opportunity to purchase this old Jeep from a very nice elderly gentleman from a Western nsw cattle farm the Jeep was acting as a part prop for the old shed that collapse once the Jeep was removed so after a number of years of being parked up looking forward to this Jeep having a new lease on life

Very progressive of the US Army to specify early in WW2 that after retirement from service, the 1/4 ton truck must also be capable of holding 5 tons of collapsed roof supports, lumber, and corrugated iron roofing.

Reciprocal....it's nice that the 5 tons of roof and lumber kept at least some of the weather off that 1/4 ton.

Re: WW2 Jeep

What a wonderful save. I had my sights on a Ford GPW in Victoria...but the sale was just too difficult to negotiate..and I gave up sadly.
