I've taken shelter in the moke under the back of a parked truck's trailer.

Worked fine, went inside to my friends place, came back out when the rain had finished.

Seats were dry, off I went 8)

a fella I work with made it 30 years ago, I dragged it out of long grass, built a towbar and then took it to Sydney when I was going to a thing up there and wanted to take some motors up, and some other stuff back

Good to see a mini that is used! And also one with the factory suspension height unlike most of the low-riders these days :D

I agree when it comes to minis, but have you ever seen a 10" moke at factory height?
I'll just leave this here
