birthday party

[atcase]

Hi all,
to-day i attended a birthday party, not unusual i hear you say ....but on this day my friend who had brought a 1944 kublewagen last year from a group of guys who had converted for drag racing then collected parts for a friend to restore to originl spec. for the Normandy campaign.
Now mark (my friend) has not seen his kuble for 3 months during its resto and to day it was being handed back.
Here it is arriving.

Hi Ashley, these are great pics. The Kuble looks very nicely done. Hopefully we will now be seeing this on around the UK show scene.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks for the replies Ade and Chet,
Mark who owns the Kuble is very keen to show the vehicle whenever possible. But current MVT`s anti german (nazi) style policy may cause some restrictions.
The lad with the schwim is a WV fan and when he brought it did not realise the miltary importance, rareity (value) of the vehicle and has been astounded with the intrest in military vehicles,militaria, re-inactment, ect and to-date has never attended a militay show but i am sure this will soon change.

Great stuff.

I am tempted to sak if there are any Pike in the lake - catching one from the SW would be a first.
Really nice vw's and jeep.-
