“Good tires, Ramsey 8500 lb. capacity winch, lockers, great in snow, in rough condition, but great for off road or ranch work Swisher receiver hitch. New Battery, but needs to be charged since it’s been sitting a while. Used an atv snow plow thru the winch, but plow was sold. I believe it has a small Ford engine, but not sure. Husband passed, so I don’t have specific info on it.”

Might be some value here.

“I purchased this Willy’s several months ago as a long term project for a relative. They’ve chosen not to take it on and now it could be your project.

The pictures speak for themselves, no engine or transmission. The frame is straight and solid, while the body is in decent condition for an almost 70 y/o vehicle. Some small rust areas, but shouldn’t be a big issue for the right person with fabricating skills. There’s no title.

Feel free to check it out, but I’m absolutely firm on the price.”

Engine spins.

We have returned to Seattle for the next week. Dad landed back in the hospital and we are working through where to proceed from here. So, there may be some spotty updates the next few days.

Thanks to Mitch Carter for dropping by and joining the Eilers Clan Tuesday evening. There were many Wandering-Willys-Jeep-Club-old-member updates. We also laughed over some old jeep stories. Mitch plans to attend this year’s FC-Roundup for the first time. Depending on decisions related to Dad, Ann and Imay also make a quick trip up from Tucsonto attend on Saturday (we will be mostly down in Tucson visiting a military buddy of Ann’s she hasn’t seen since Khobar) .. stay tuned!

Here areAnnand Dad goofing around a little.

Me, I should know better than to snatch a quick nap when my evil wife is lurking with acamera.

A big thanks to Roger Martin for spotting this at an Ohio antique store and giving me first crack at it. He even wrangled 10% off the listed price. Neither Mitch Carter (who came by the hospital to visit dad — thanks Mitch) nor I nor Roger have ever seen one.

Roger Martin spotted this GPW for sale. The jeep is listed by a neighbor; the actual seller is Matt.However, the friend who listed it somehow got Matt’s phone number automatically hidden, so there’s no way to contact Matt as of this post. I suspect Matt’s contact info will land on the ad once it has been updated.

Scott spotted this FC-170.

“1964 Jeep F.C. 170 4×4 8ft bed
Rare barn find, complete with extra engine
1 ton truck”

Scott is looking for 1 or 2 chrome Appliance rims. Contact him atsgsapishka@gmail.com.

He writes, “I am looking for 1 or 2 15×8 5x5x5 CJ -5 OR J 2000chrome Appliance rim. They are a unique style that looks just like the old jeep smooth rim. One of my rims was stolen from my yard. Yes only one! How dumb, as these are in poor shape but totally desirable.

Inventor David Stone filed a patent for a Power Take-Off Mechanism and Drive Therefor, with Willys Motors as the assignee, on August 08, 1950.

This ad may have appeared multiple times, but appear at least once in the January 30, 1943, issue of Colliers magazine on page 29. Included below is a color version supposedly published in 1942.

ThisApril 5, 1941, article in Colliers puzzled me. Through it, the author referred to a train as a “Giant Jeep”. I’ve never run across a reference before or after that time of a train being called a jeep. The article never mentions anyreference to the newly created 1/4 ton vehicles, whose ‘jeep’ name was still catching on in the press. It also does not indicate where/why the jeep name for the train originated.

This ad was published in the February 7, 1942, issue of the Saturday Evening Post, pg. 31.

UPDATE: Chief Detective SteveK realized this is actually a CJ-3B. I thought it was a poorly done CJ-3A.

I snagged this 5″x7″ postcard off of Craigslist. For some reason it is depicted with aCJ-3B raised hoodbump along the top side of the hood.
