Nice video...hope you like it

Post by Navarre » Sun Apr 26, 2015 3:13 pm

Hello gents,

Some friends and me were invited to a classic cars elegance contest organized by a Golf Club. We were not in the competition, just made a display with the jeeps, GI uniforms and some original ww2 equipment as a record player and V Disc collection.
They issued a video where you can see us in the begining and closing the video. I hope you like it. I´m the "GI" seen in the last scene searching a record
Regards

Very nicely done throughout! Boy oh boy Danny, I really liked it. The producer has a fine sense of style and taste, and in your cameo you captured the essence of searching for the next record. :D
Happy Jeep Trails,
