Default Lt R.H.D. Todd's Jeep tool-chest

See http://carrsite2.mysite.wanadoo-memb.../jeep/jeep.htm > Seat Locker for a field modification by Lt R.H.D. Todd of the Canadian Army. A nice example of Canadian ingenuity!

Default Have it...

In our jeep we have that plate, exactly like on the drawings...
The Willys MB did come to Norway in may 45 with the Red Devils as far as we know.
We also found two english WD numbers on it, M 568736 on the side of the passenger side and M 1501828 on the hood.
The bars in the grille have also once been cut out, and later welded in place again.

Chers

Rolf

I wanted to write "does anybody know of a survivor?" but I thought, naah, not a chance ...

Can you share some pics sometime when the snow is melted away?
