Jeeps Limited - Site formatting

Details: Written by Administrator; Created: 18 January 2018; Hits: 7608

For those who visit regularly, don't be alarmed. We had to redo the site styling due to software upgrades that broke the last template. The How-To's got messed up also so they will have to be reformatted too. This is a work in process and will be done...eventually.
