Limited updates for Sunday. We are having our annual Oolie Christmas gathering, which means lots of mayhem. In the meantime, here’s a story that Alaska Paul spotted about a family who traveled around in a custom motorhome towing a CJ-2A

    Returning home on Sunday, we were driving through Eau Claire en route to church when the Jeep disconnected as we crossed some railroad tracks. We had just started down a steep grade to the north end of the business section of Eau Claire. The Jeep cleared the back end of the Limited and continued down the steep grade. It seemed to be heading directly towards a group of people coming out of a church on the opposite side of the street. Only some shrubbery separated the people from the Jeep, which was accelerating towards them.
    I was helpless, but the good Lord took over in the split second and turned the Jeep into a tree or it would have mowed down dozens of people. The impact bent the heavy channel iron bumper and 12.5 inch solid bar into a horseshoe. The debarked tree showed the wound years later. This was just the beginning of the end of our Galesville Limited travels.

    Great story. Who would have the time and patience required to fabricate such an iconic vehicle today (virtually by himself). Would love to have seen it on the open road. Are those days gone?
