I got my GPW in St.Moritz/Switzerland. This jeep must have been around Switzerland since the WWII or juts right after. Though, speedometer, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge and platings show metric units (the data plates are in German). I just started restoring it technically, meaning I will replace anything that is not almost original (e.g. wiring, accessories etc.) but... expect fighting rust I will NOT touch the body. If I would, I might get a "brand new" GPW but on the other hand it would no longer be the wartime veteran I've been longing for since almost 30 years.
