Howdy Guys
Twenty-five years ago I had a chance to buy a replica Jeep that was built by famed race car builder Frank Kurtiss, who built the Jeep in the early 1940s for Hollywood, because Jeeps were not available due to the war.
The one I looked at resembled the MB/GPW style and was built on a Ford Model T chassic and running gear.
I didnt buy it at the time because I was trying to buy a Australian LP2A carrier instead.
Maybe the Jeep was updated back then to appear more "modern" if it even was the same one. At any rate I regret not buying that replica and I have no idea where it went.
