Woah! Looks quite complete and unmodified. Each time I see a DUKW crippled to a tourist transportation vehicle with loads of junk welded on and essential parts removed and thrown away it makes my heart bleeding. Congratulations to this jewel. I hope you bring her back to old glory.

Regards,

Chris

nice project have fun with the resto.

Chris, I hate it too when they modify these things but from the other side, I'd rather see a dukw modified still earning its living than been cut to piece's with a blowtorch, here in belgium are 2 lady's still earing there living as a tourist vehicle, on the beach. :wink:
