Just a Few Monday Updates

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

We spent part of Sunday down in Walla Walla, looking at a few houses, eating gourmet gas station food at Andrae’s Kitchen, grabbing some bakery goodies at the Walla Walla Bread Company, and checking out the flooding that rocked the area last week. So, just a few updates related to the 1956 brochures for Monday.

Posts Delayed until Monday

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: I *think* I’ve found a workaround solution, as my main laptop is working once again. If you have 2011 Mac and have vertical lines (as seen below), you likely have a video card problem (aka the AMD graphics chip has failed). There’s a software strategy for working around that which you can find here.

I didn’t get much done yesterday, due to technical difficulties, so updates delayed until Monday. I spent a good deal of time replacing the motherboard on my main laptop, only to find out that the motherboard wasn’t the problem. Sigh. At least I have my 10 year old laptop still (and it still works pretty good).

It appears I will have to use a software hack to make the computer work properly again. So, that’s Sunday’s task….

Not good! I may end up purchasing another laptop. We’ll see how things go….

Email Account update

UPDATE: Well, I spoke to soon. It’s acting goofy again. Continue sending messages to d@deilers.com. Thanks!

Well, it seems my d @ ewillys.com account is working once more. A hurried look through unread emails suggests that quite a few folks are awaiting responses. I only have 6000 messages to get through, so please be patient.

“Willys–1957 FC 150. Forward Control cab over engine pickup. Rare 4 wheel drive cabover pickup with Buick v-6, T-98 four speed with Warn overdrive and a Koenig PTO winch. Even rarer with no rust issues! One just sold on another website for over $25,000 and it was and original 4 cylinder (75 hp versus 135 hp), only a 3 speed and no winch. My reserve is much lower than that! Cool to drive around except that every time you stop someone has to ask “What is that? This was the first one I ever saw and had to buy it and I’ve only seen one since. This rare beauty includes:
Buick 198 V-6
T 98 four speed trans. with Warn Overdrive (16 forward gears!)

FC Forward Forum Temporarily Down?

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Will alerted me that the FC Forward Forum is temporarily down. It was taken down for a supposed violation of the TOS, though I’d be surprised if the forum violated the TOS. There seems to be a way to contact the host and appeal this issue. Anyone know who the administrator(s) were?

Just a Video Update for Monday

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Just a video update today. We went camping this weekend along the Columbia River in Vantage. It was a wind blown affair, so being outside wasn’t all that great, but being inside as the wind raged outside was pretty cozy.

Updates resume Tuesday morning.
