They must be worth a fortune! Lucky guy. They were never quick, seem to remember they has a side-valve engine, wouldn't have liked to be in one of them being chased by a WW11 Volkswagen-based German field car!

he is slowly selling them off due to ill health, he has a lot of early military land rovers as well and old military motorbikes, weapons, radio equipment etc. A proper enthusiast.

I bought this a good few years ago as a kit car.When I got it home I found that it was a genuine 1947 Willys jeep.I kept it for years and eventualy sold it at a good price.Been sorry ever since.
