Falklands G for sale
Looking though one of the military vehicle magazines and to my suprise theres a ex Argentine G wagen for sale that was captured during the falklands war .
I have wondered what happened to the few that made it to the UK as spoils of war .
Having phoned the seller this is the information to date ,
230 petrol
1981 build
military reg , 00 CV 23
Hopefully the chassis number and some pictures will be with me soon .
the ad is posted below anyone interested give him a bell .
What a piece of Military and G history must be one of the first military contracts off the line .
Plus he gave me the phone number of another falklands G owner in the UK .
Wonder if Greeny ever rebuilt his ?
