Yes, thats one of the many bunker in the Alps.
The bunker was made during the ww1 and ww2 to secure the borden between Italy and France.

oh yes thats my opinion too,
but the willys belongs to a old farmer,
he drive every morning to milking his cows,
and he told me, the willys is the only way to get to his cows,
and its the only way to bring his milk cans back to his home downhill in the valley.

Please excuse my english!!!!!!!!:shock::crazy eyes:

for us Europeans, the Willys means a lot, in my birth town (Caen in Normandy) there are a LOT of farmers still using vintage Willys for various tasks. Last time i get there the Beach lifesavers were still using one ... and the frame and body was dated 1943 :shock:
i guess that there were more paint coats than actual steel :crazyeyes:

For my part, the way i've put the various stickers on my JK is a personal tribute to the 1944 willys and the men who gave their lives to liberate us :clap2:
