Tidied up a mates Ford for him!

I Had a job to tidy up a mates Ford M151A1 for him it was in tatty condition wrong colours and wrong markings. I fitted a wading kit(snorkle and raised exhaust vents on engine etc)
It came up quite well I think. What do you guys think.

Nice one.

Those seats wouldn't be too comfortable for 3000 miles across Europe though

New ones are on the way as we speak!

That's a neat job there Tony. And no probs with climate control

nice

Loverly job. Back to basics, like no roof!

Lovely job, but thinks I will stick with my Green Oval

nice one Tony, but should it have been painted yellow?

That period of "Jeep" was renowned for being uncomfortable giving rise to a condition I think known as 'jeep drivers butt'. Which is otherwise known as a pilonidal abscess!!

Sounds very painful

These arnt uncomfortable they ride better than a coil sprung Rover. They have a similar suspension system to the much later Humvee Double wishbones and coils all round. To think they came out in the early 60's
So much more comfortable than a series truck. If anyone is down at Beltring come and have a go!

Snorkel and high exhaust outlet, Now, that will be handy for the new bit of route near Bremerhaven

Absolutley beautiful.

I'd love one, or something similar. Basic, functional & very pretty.

Thought someone had posted a picture of Rhiannon then !!!

Mark, you should get a Mahindra CJ, they are cheap and great fun.

I only buy what's offered to me.
The days of hunting round for cars are long gone due to crap descriptions & time wasting sellers

I only got into this offroading game as someone offered me an SJ many years ago for £1000 - I offered them £150 ^ they took it! - Those were the days, a tidy Sammy with tax & mot for £150!!!!!

So Mark...........you do luv Japs

Yep....

My aim is that when the day finally comes I will have tried everything & owned as many as poss. It's very unusual for me to own anything more than a year or so

Has a word with Marks Bank Manager

Tony, very nice jeep. I prefer a roof though as it keeps me warm and dry whilst waiting for you and John to come and recover me!

Thinks David needs a brolly

Stunning vehicle tony - good job!
