I'm pretty sure it was about £5800. The quality of the work is amazing

Believe we are restoring 107505, Tub 9305. Tub definite, frame number looks genuine, but can't be 100%. Dates marry-up. Engine also 31 Dec '41.

Introduction: Marine of the Vietnam Era, very interested in living, accurate history as a pretty good amateur historian. I restored a '43 GPW and an M5A1 Stuart 30 years ago, and I'm just getting back into the fun with a 1942 MB Slat, #110730, delivered 9Jan42. As I get deeper into it, I'll report what I find. I'm very happy to be here.

I'm pretty sure Slat Grille MB100005 belongs to Dan Janquitto. He owns Beachwood Canvas and the Museum where this jeep resides.
