A genuine WW2 motorpool mixup. Unrestored but undergoing a thorough tidy-up and repaint. I am trying to retain as much original gear as possible, repairing rather than replacing. USA number missing. UPDATE January 28 2003. Body done, rolling chassis done and ready for body. Completion expected within 2 months.UPDATE Feb 18. Going nicely, finishing work to do now. Update May'03. Finishing work mostly done, nearly 1000 miles up and going strongly.
