Jeep-OARE data plate
just after the war ending, OARE (Officina Automobilistica Riparazioni Esercito... an italian army branch ...something like Army Automotive Repair Shop...) in Bologna did some light modifications on italian army jeeps...
this is the data plate then installed.

Re: Jeep-OARE data plate
Isn't it amazing that even a vehicle data plate sounds slinky if it's in Italian?

I'm not sure to understand your point of view: I should consider it as the usual superficial commentary on the Italian virtues?
I left this here as, here, we're talking about jeep modifications, something technical, I guess,...and not about other countries' styles...ok?

Re: Jeep-OARE data plate
Hi Maurizio,
no offense, all I tried to say was this:
The italian language sound so much smoother and sweeter than our language.
And I wanted to say that in your language even that dataplate sounds like a "serenata" to me!
So... after all... it was a compliment.

Re: Jeep-OARE data plate
here are the total of modifications done by OARE on two different models. images are from the original SNL G503 15.1.44 made by them (possibly printed after the war end).

Re: Jeep-OARE data plate
These old posts were just brought to my attention. It helps tell the story of my 45 MB that was brought back to the US 21 years ago. The FWD and shifting operating instructions are in Italian. I tried to include photos but can't seem to get the file size small enough [ tried printing to pdf but that was not enough]
