Topic: Where to buy a Willy's Jeep 2

If I get it as a rustbucket which chances are I will, I'll add the roll cage, paint it the same color green the WWII ones were, and paint a white star on the doors of each. I could care less wether it was used in World War Two, all I want is a similar model.

A couple of my friends own WW2 typ Jeeps.
They are pretty expensive here and you have to work allot on them to keep them going!!!
With 4 of them I went to Normandy 2004 for the 60th anniversary of D-Day. We drove the whole 1200 kilometers from our hometown to Normandy with the jeeps. It was a hell of a ride!!!!
1 Willys MB (a real one and the owner is proud like hell)
2 Hotchkiss M201
1 Mahindra
Here are some pics:

At Utah beach

Two Hotchkiss linked with the tandem tow bar

My friend with his Willys MB in front of a Bunker at Utah beach (I was the co-driver in this one)

Stuck in the mud at Utah beach

Saved my french fishermen. We had great parties with them and from that day on personal tourguides!!! We had to shower with our clothes after that because the mud smelled gross!!!
