Bill shared this video of a guy walking through and driving a Massimo mini-jeep. I’ve seen ads for these posted in various FB and Craigslist ads, but this is the first video I’ve seen. At $2500 through Tractor Supply, they aren’t a trivial purchase, but I have to say they do look kind of fun!

“Recently restored 1950s Hamilton Jeep pedal car”
Few Updates Until Monday
I’ve missed out on some updates, but for good reason. Our annual family gathering is this weekend, so I’ve been spending, literally, the last few weeks cleaning, organizing and straightening up various parts of the property, including creating a new parking spot for the motorhome.
So, updates will be limited, but I know there are a few readers who will be sending me some items for sale and I’ll get them up as I get a chance.
Meanwhile, I picked up a few more “folk art” jeeps on the cheap from eBay. This one is about 7″ long. It’s missing one roll bar, but who cares. Someone spend some time building this oddity (shown next to a small Surrey for comparison).

Military FC Wrecker and Jeep (plus other toys) eBay
UPDATE: The seller has confirmed the wrecker does have “J E E P” stamped across the front.
Andy shared this FC Wrecker and jeep. It also includes other toys. I would have bought the two jeeps, but don’t want the rest of the toys.
