Jim I have my work cut out fixing and moving my own stuff, but reposting this as I don’t know if people realise the cost of maintaining and getting these vehicles to shows - worth supporting if you want to see historic vehicles continue to go to shows!

They are cool things eh? Wouldn’t mind a Dodge WC personally but happy having this old lady for now of course Not road legal as that would take away some of her military spec & I can’t drive her anyway. Nice to show off though 👍

Brill - my first licence was, of course, for this... because that's how we rolled back in the 80's - didn't get my car licence until 2 years later (where I leaned in an MG Metro 😶)
