Adds new meaning to " his and hers "

This has to be the "for better " part

One thing for sure this ain't the "something blue" sooooo it must be the " something old"

Nice pic. Is this a recent photo ?
Congrats to the happy couple.

John

That is seriously cool picture, at least the bride knows what she is having to share her husband with.....or is it the other way around

Congratulations to all.

Best wishes.

Jack.

When my wife (2nd) and I were married in 2000, I drove the CCKW from the barn to the house (800 ft) in my suit, my sons drove up in the M151 and my wife was driven up by her sone driving the GPW...

Great story Thanks for sharing it with us. I like the use of both US and European fuel cans on your CCKW.
