If you had to put a year or time frame on it, would you say 2006-2007ish maybe later?

Kuba, as usual this work is very well done. You are at the top of your game. The HMMWV itself is near perfect. Your attention to detail on the dio is tremendous. There are so many little details that pop out in every single photo. I will be looking at these photos a lot.
Regards,
Eric
