G wizz Elite Veteran Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: Uk Vehicle(s): Dont own a G anymore, Too expensive!!!! Posts: 686 | Re: Arginetina army Gs cliff. can you not ring them up as an undercover tyre kicker and find out a little more about it, would be interesting to know, I would do it myself but have no knowledge of military stuff, unlike you and billy boy. now the chevy next to it would make a nice tow truck for my G.

Dave P Veteran Date registered: Jun 2006 Location: Ashford,UK Vehicle(s): Posts: 184 | RE: Arginetina army Gs The advert doesn't state that it is from the Falklands,it says it is ex-Argentinian,it doesn't even say it's ex-military. It has just states that the 25th anniversary is this year,and that it is ex-Argentinian,and leaves the rest to your imagination! Dave | ||

torfinn9990 Member Date registered: May 2007 Location: Vehicle(s): norwegian ex-mil 240GD, jeep cherokee, willys jeep Posts: 15 | RE: Some pics..... FernandoRubio - 5/2/2006 11:47 AM I dont any of the interior, but here are a couple I have. As soon as I have any of the interior, I'll post it. You can imagine that is quite spartan. Mine did not come with AC, but have all the other traditional options, webasto, etc. Interesting, it comes with a different light switch, that includes de possibility of using what are called Troops light, that are basically dimmed lights so the "enemy" cannot spot you. Regards, Fernando Is this the type of lightswitch that you have? I can see that you have 1 of those troops light in front. Were there two originally? Regards Torfinn | ||
