   Hi lads it's been years since I've been on here, hopefully it's the same great site as when I left.

	Hi Matt, I don't know if you are aware but Ralph passed away 3 years ago: Ralph Young had a plane crash I know he owned the jeep at that time. I'm not sure what happened after. Perhaps johnnybravo knows.

	Oh that's very sad news, he was a super nice gentleman. Thanks for the photo, looks like he was replacing a manifold gasket on the old girl. I love to see any other photos if anyone has any. Would also love to know where the jeep is now, if it's still in the family or if it was sold. Thanks for the update

	Glad you checked in. Don't give up, I found a jeep I used to own with a post very similar to yours. Take care....good luck with he search. Is the intent to take it to Ireland or just curiosity?

	Thanks for the help, my first intention was just curiosity but now seems there could be more to this than even I thought. I remember him telling me he was a lawyer and mainly dealt with creditor harassment cases, it was interesting stuff. Funny how things happen,
