An A1 with A2 turn signal lights/grill, fabricated antenna and exhaust brackets. I wonder if Ken knows the owner of this mutt?

My good friend George with his mutt and his all purpose M416A1. Also notice the leather seat cushions which George told me, he recycled from his old sofa 8)

Nice photos Jay thanks for posting. The photo of the mutt before George's, is that what an actual bikini top is suppose to look like?

Wow man, what attention to detail. Must have been an excellent place to be seeing for oneself.

The bikini top's rear part seems to have been folded inwards. Is that a normal hood turned into a bikini top :?:

Awesome pictures Jay

One question, why those GP's have the spare wheels in front and what do they carry on the hood?

Definitely just a normal top with the rear part folded towards the middle bow.

Those are British Airborne jeeps. Not sure what's on the bonnets... probably rockets. One noticable feature on these jeeps is the removable steering wheel.

Thanks for the Info Jay.
Also were these made in Britain? right?
Plus what is that artillery piece called.... looks like a 155mm but more of a 205mm to me? :roll:
