A few old pictures including what appears to be a knackered G506:

The fellow behind the jeep in the second picture looks like the same mechanic in that great colour early CCKW picture from Ft Knox.

Re: End of the Road
Anybody know what the Jeep is? At first I thought it was a slat grill, but then a second glance revealed the head lights on the fenders. It can't be a Bantam (can it?) because it says Willys. Very EARLY MB?

The truck with the girls in is a '42 Ford I think, and the door insignia is Third Service Command
