Darryl,

See http://www.milweb.net/dealers.php?sort=international for a pretty complete listing of military dealers in Belgium, France and the Netherlands.

In the latter, I would advise you to contact Joop Staman of Staman International Trading. Wildenberg is another big dealer, Army Cars is worth a try for American parts. Jaap Rietveld is Dutch but based in Belgium and he has good sources in the US. To my knowledge, Airborne Garage only trades vehicles or acts as a sales agent, AFAIK they don't keep stocks of parts. And of course make sure to visit Dirk Leegwater!

If I were you I would send any of them your list of required parts by email so you know you're not visiting them for a cup of coffee only. It will the dealers some time to find / dig out the parts you need, as Scout Car parts are not exactly on the shelf of fast moving items these days.

HTH,
Hanno
