1957 DJ-3A Anacortes, WA **SOLD**

0

UPDATE: Was ‘For Trade’. **SOLD**

This seller has not put the title into his name yet.  This appears in good shape.

“I have a 1957 Willys DJ3A i would like to trade for a different project (i would like to get a 50s ford, chevy or dodge truck but will look at all), I have the original title in hand, i have not put it into my name yet because i was not sure what i was going to do with it and thought being the second owner of a rig meant something anyhow the Willys runs and drives, when i got it he started to convert it to 12 volt so it now runs and charges 12v but all the lights are still 6 volt so it will need to be rewired for 12v. it has min rust on the hood only the tub and rest of the body is straight with out rust. every thing other than the 12v system is original equipment. let me know what you have to trade, i would sell it but i cant seem to find a value on line for this to set a price so i will only trade for fear of getting the short end of the stick or giving someone els the short end.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This is missing a few M-38 related items, but might be a solid jeep.

“Vehicle is in good shape, runs well. Excellent condition for restoration project or just use as is. The seat frames were stollen, so new owner would have to buy new frames or adapt newer seats. Engine was rebuilt a few years ago, so there are very few miles on it. New brakes and cylinders. It has the original carb. I am trying to get more pictures on, but having much success. Will attach pictures to email on request.”

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was listed at $5000.

With a flat, a lack of brakes and a broken windshield, this will need some work.

“It’s a decent truck that I don’t have time to finish. Starts and runs good. It would be driveable if it had brakes I haven’t had time to see what’s up with them. As you can see I haven’t had time to fix the flat on the front.
I have a brand new fuel pump for it that needs to be installed and both shifter boots that will go with it also. It has a clean title that is in my name. Feel free to ask any questions, or set up a time to come look it over.”

This has something installed on the front bumper, but I can’t see much due to the small pics.

Our Weekend Trip to Idaho

Ann and I drove to Spokane last Thursday for a doc appointment, then returned via the Idaho panhandle.  We made it as far east as Fernwood, Idaho, a small town in the mountains to visit Ann’s relatives, before heading south to Moscow and back.  While in Fernwood, we ran across a couple jeeps.  So, we took photographs.

Here’s a photograph of us at the barn built by my great grandfather at Fighting Creek.  This will mean something to those that have read my book.  The barn is 100 years old, but still looks good (from this angle anyway).

Here’s an old plow jeep we spotted.  We also spotted a jeep across the street, but it was too far back to photograph.

This was located in the town of Santa, Idaho, at the bridge.

Andy Gard Gee-I-Jeep Remote Control Toy **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

“Andy Gard Toys are rare to begin with. Gee-I-Jeep with Box. One of the first remote control cars on the market. Orginial box. The later models had a steering wheel on the controller. I tried a couple of D batteries but could not get it to work. It may be a simple wire fix? The windshield has broken off but is included and maybe able to be glued back on? This is a very rare plastic toy in this condition and the box makes it so collectable.”

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $4450.

(10/12/2012) This looks good, except for the area near the passenger side fender.  It may just be an optical illusion, but it looks kind of odd.
