MB 106163
Slat Grill jeep delivered at Christmas Eve 1941. Purchased it from a guy in Snohomish WA. USA, but originally it came from California. It came with early engine MB-105992, currently a Ford engine is installed (GPW118391) which will be replaced. Currently in the process of restoration. Aim to drive it to Normandie in 2019. Most hard to find parts are there, still looking for some.
Update 3-18-23: Original Registration number found on back panel! Driven around the house for the first time a week ago!
