1947 CJ-2A Portland, OR **Scam?**

UPDATE: Ad deleted. This same jeep was spotted on the Baltimore Craigslist, so proceed with caution. 

Seems like a “too good of price deal” …

Overground Railroad Book

A reader (and my pea-sized brain can’t remember who) noticed that the front of the Overground Railroad, a book by Candace Taylor, had a Jeep Wagon on its cover. It looks to be a 1950-1951 wagon to me.

I haven’t read the book just yet, but look forward to it. The book is about 300 pages, but has at least 100 pages of photos. The reviews for it have been very good. Here’s a review from a Route 66 website.
