Default Photos of the German Prototype Iltis in Canadian camo.

Hi Stuart:

Here are the photos I promised: first the front end, then the dash with German instruments and finally the tail end with German lights. As Terry noted it definitely came from the Jump School, look at all the extra tiedowns and clevises!

Speaking of jumping Ilti- I think your para flattened one is Belgian; made by Bombardier.

Cheers! Mike

Just long enough to stow an A frame towbar. They actually should have built them right onto the front bumpers, sort of like the old WW2 jeep optional kit. It would have saved a lot of time on the highways.
