Default My jeep restoration

Hi All

As previously advised I now have my 1942 MB Willys Jeep restoration Project and have started stripping it down. As I have progresed into my venture, I am now aware that I will have to replace a number of parts etc. Because I am a relatively newcomer to this type of project I am wondering if there is anyone out there who may be able to advise if there are any supplyers of Jeep Parts in Australia, or do I have to go overseas to obtain them.

So any advice regarding an Australian or good overseas Company and their contact details would be appreciated. I have called the project, "Little Jo".

Cheers

Little Jo

Neil and Max at Marathon Spares (West Tamworth I think) can supply whatever you want.
All the jeep guys around here are more than happy with the service provided.
Might be worth contacting to get there catalogue/price list to get you started
Just did a search on Google,

Marathon Spare Parts Co.
Telephone: +61 (0) 2 6762 8666
Email: marathonspares@bigpond.com.au

You jeep owners need all the help you can get!!
