The floors are all but perfect , a couple of holes where the drain holes had been blocked by mulch at some stage but that's it , it's a great looking , mostly original moke and well worth sleeping on the lounge for :P

its solves the problem of the inertia reel locking as you pull the belt.

The thing on the back is the spare wheel mounting

Nice find.

The bent rear mud guard is exactly why I don't have thos oversized and heavy "MOKE" mudflaps on Mokesta. Originality can go to hell.
