I found my jeep in a barn !! about four hours drive northwest of Stockholm, Sweden in 1999. The owner imported my jeep together with two more jeeps in to Sweden in 1986. He bought all three in Sri Lanka in 1985 to use for his and his familys transportation needs on the island. He let a local workshop on Sri Lanka rebuild the jeeps. Mine has a indian carburator and headlights,otherwise it´s fairly complete, and in a very good and running condition. The previus owner shipped them in crates to Sweden in 1986, and was afterwards stationed in Saudi until 1999, when he came back home and decided to sell all three. I consider myself as a lucky guy because I got the last one. Thanks for a really good site ! Tom Setterwall
