My Jeep Is Coming!

[General-Patton]

Hi Guys.

I put the finishing touches on the shipping problem for my MB chassis
It should be arriving in December.

I was also wondering the best place to get the tub, instruments ETC.

Patton,

Glad to hear your chasis is in-route.

As for body tub/panels, if you are looking for reproduction or original will depend on where you need to look.

Reproduction: Most are manufactured by MD Juan. The quality has improved over the years. I have heard some good stuff about them, but I do not have first hand experience. Others here can tell you more.
As for dealers, there are several in the business: John Bizal at Midwest Military, George Baxter at Army Jeep Parts, Peter Debella, Brent Mullins, Darrly Bessinger.
For large items (body tub), you may want to find someone close to save on shipping. I would check the MVPA supply line magazine, which has numerous choices in parts suppliers.

For original parts, check out the MVPA supply line, ebay, the "For Sale" boards here and the G503 as well as locally. You may want to look for a "parts vehicle".

Hope this helps and glad to have you on our board.

Thanks for your help. I found a website named KAISER-WILLYS. Do you know anything about them?

Shipping cost is not a problem

Patton,

I don't know much about them, but I bet others on the board do.

If you do a google search you should be able to find the websites of some of the others I listed above too. It never hurts to shop around a little, especially on the reproduction stuff because it mostly comes from the same manufacturer.

I have heard good things about the new reproduction stuff, so depending on what your plans are that may be a viable option.

Good luck and post a photo when you get your vehicle.

There are extra parts but I'm not sure what they are (Still have to take a good look)
