- I wanted to have a look on the Jeep to see if I can find any previous numbers or labels from its previous life before it gets a new paint scheme for next year so got the sander out!
No messing about there Bruce, job done! 👏
😁👍
Cheers Bruce. Happy New year.
Good job with the Jeep Bruce. Love looking around your garage and as l have said in previous comments l used to collect all that stuff. Only 3 bayonets left. I think I should start collecting again. And the Acion Men! I kept mine from being a kid and then one day my mother decided to give them away to a friends child. My teddy came out the cot when l found out 😂. Looking forward to your next video. Cheers Carl 😊
Be another Mancave update soon! 😁👍👍
New year, new look ! 😎 🥃
Always something to do on a Jeep and if not give it a lick of green paint Army style Lance😁👍🥃🥃🥃
@@Coastriderscotland For sure.😁 Ever think of desert tan...?
@@lancerbiker5263 green for next year or two, then possible desert SAS theme 😁👊👍
I’d love to sand the bonnet and bumper on my 1955 Hotchkiss M201 to see what’s there if anything aswell.
I got that link on the FB page to go search through when get a wet day, so prob not have ling to wait! 🤣🤣🤣😁👍
Looking great. Trying to keep it real and true.😊
Do you reckon she was ever used in a film?
Another day washing drenched towels from garage floor. Lol😢
Could be Mark,one of 10 Jeep’s imported to UK from France and it had been painted in 101st US colours so maybe a film star! 😁👍
Was the Jeep already Americanised when you bought her ?
It was done when it came to the UK by first owner here, have s receipt that its one of 12 that came to UK in 1998, many were painted USA and used as film props in Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan which mostly was filmed in England,
I re painted the bonnet with same numbers as the Action Man Jeep! 😜👍
The whole Jeep will get a roller paint of Olive Drab and prob leave it with no markings for a while 😁👍
I think it looks better just green. Would there have been any NATO markings?
There would be French bonnet markings -3 black squares to chalk on convoy number, and usual military signage like tyre pressure and vehicle weight.
Half one side rear axle white for night convoy light to see vehicle in front, i will do all these markings but it will just be NATO and no specific country,
If the whole Jeep is satin Olive Drab it covers all things 1945 to French withdrawal in 1990 😁👍
Cheers Bruce
Great videos this year Bruce. Just a question, what flooring did you put in your garage.
