Alex, calling my friends from Western Command scumbags is perhaps a little too strong...scalliwags is perhaps a bit more fitting.
I'm thinking those people on Paisley Island will soon be cursing whoever posted the coordinates of those Jeeps on this forum as their little bit of Eden is overrun by MV collector's...scenes frpm "Second Hand Lions" comes to mind with Robert Duval and Michael Caine sitting in rockers with shotguns on their laps waiting for travelling salesmen.
A tip for anyone interested in acquiring one of these Jeeps: the people on the island are very wealthy so convenience will probably override any monetary issues so be prepared to replace any Jeep you buy with another vehicle. Can't have the wealthy hauling their crates of Pouilly-Fuisse to the cabin by hand now, can we?
There are any number of marine salvors in Vancouver and environs that will have the kit necessary to retrieve those Jeeps, or perhaps someone will raft them off the island. In any event, there should be some good stories generated by this post. Derek.
