Hello everybody, my name is Brian and I live on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia.I'm 60 years old and have been interested in everything military from a very early age. I have owned 3 jeeps with my current one being a 1944 Willys MB that I am restoring to running condition.I brought it from the deceased estate of a longtime jeep lover who passed away in 2011 after a short illness. I was contacted by his wife and asked to help sell off his collection of jeep parts, jeep & two trailers. Well, to say there was a few items is an understatement.If you will bear with me I'll post photos when I work out how to do it.My jeep was stoed in a garage for 35 years and not started for over 10 years. This meant I have had many problems fuel related.I am hoping that someone out there in forum land will be able to help me.I'll post a detailed report next posting.thanks to all for reading this.

g`day Brian.

good to have another aussie on the forum. we will have one from each state soon.
thats a pretty tidy looking old jeeps you picked up there. should be a relatively easy restore. looks like everything is there.
