MB 108308

First purchased as a '47 CJ2a in 2000, we discovered that the only things CJ about this jeep were the grill, hood and windsheild frame. We had inadvertently purchased a very early production MB. Once we realized that, we took on a careful restoration. It was completed in early '04. For five years, we drove it, enjoyed and continued to work on the accuracy of the jeep. Sadly, in November of 2009, we had to sell our jeep to pay bills ... sigh. The only solace, we guess, is that we saved this little beast from rusting away in the Colorado Rockies.
