Default Kevin Purcell RIP

Sadly, the MV community has lost another stalwart in Kevin Purcell. I first met Kevin in 1976 during my jeep scrounging raids into NSW. Kevin helped me out with a MB chassis and two tubs . He was using Blitz's in the bush on his parents property at Yaven creek, near Adelong , at the time he had a nice jeep and a Humber FV Truck in his collection. Only recently he returned by post a hammer I had left behind back in 1976 !

there was also "Kevin's toys" covering some of his restoring work at Yaven Creek.
