Yes, I got an SGI MB body kit last fall. It does have all the holes drilled into it, which the MDJ ones do not. Everything fits well. Those cost $1000 more though....

I've used plenty of original shoes, and new ones; there is no difference, except that you won't get lung cancer from the new ones.

The hood has to be manually secured to the windshield with a strap. Which no one ever did.

I need the outer hand brake shoe for an M38A1; the one with two ears on it. Lining is not important.

I only know of one replacement body, and it is made by MD Juan, no matter who sells it. I have used several of them, in WW2, CJ, and M38 configurations. I find them easy to use and they do fit. I do ...
