four-wheel-drive Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) I just love those old WW2 Jeeps they are still to this day one of the best off road trucks around not very fast though the chap that did some work on my old cherokee has one he bought it in from the US a bit of a wreck but he has rebuilt it much like you have with the Land Rover and it is now in mint condition I think it is a 1944 another friends husband has one I think it is a 1947 French made one he used to go to shows in the summer. Also all of the parts are easy to get hold in fact you can still get everything needed to make a new one from scratch if I was younger I would love to do that but I would like some mods like a heater and breaks that work etc etc. Edited December 27, 2016 by four-wheel-drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted December 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 i saw them do one on wheeler dealers, i was very impressed. they also said the parts are widely available, it is something i would like to do, but it would have to join the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ditchman Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 the "nipsy" is the sphinqter muscle around your (or most peoples) bottom...this muscle can be or is often abused and not looked after properly, it can be stretched out of shape and not cleaned properly...and usually attracts tomatoe seeds....which if not removed can cause some distress.......so a tool such as the one you bought would be an important adition to your daily health routine ....and thus kept in the bathroom , not in the workshop all clear now ?
