There's an entire fleet of DUKWs in Branson, Missouri. They are all painted white and have canopies with fringe. Disgusting! ;)

Well, incredible project. I can't even imagine the amount of time and effort you have put into this vehicle.

Andy - we must be do for an update, no?
Great to see someone have the will and patience to carry out a project like this, just remember that the kids of the future will thank you even more when they see a real one instead of one on google? Great work
I rode them in the early 60's at the Wisconsin Dells.Quote:

Hey Andy, it makes my day brighter when you post an update. Fantastic progress
Green with envy............how I would love to drive that wagon.
Well Done Andy makes one very proud to see someone has the time to bring this historic vehicle back, outside of the usual Imperial War Museum type paid restorer employers areas!!
