1955 CJ-5 San Leandro, CA $4200

• CATEGORIES: CJ5 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Dan spotted this stock CJ-5.

“This is a rare opportunity to pick up an original barn find 1955 Willys CJ-5 Serial number 57548, registered with California yellow plates. This is the first year of the Willys CJ-5 series Jeeps, mid-production 1955, via serial number confirmation. Literally found on a farm!

This Jeep is so original, the rear seat factory holes have not been punched out, and the vehicle has absolutely zero RUST and extremely straight! And has original 1950’s Koenig Iron Works, Inc. Model Number 520 hard top (not pictured, but in the same patina condition as of the Jeep), plus 1950’s rare Palomino Incorporated tow bar and jerry can.

I’ve just put brand new Deestone 7.00 x 15 traction tires, including spare. New exhaust, new carburetor, wires, cap and rotor, and all fluids have been replaced.

This vehicle is perfect for your ranch, cabin, fishing, hunting, trail riding, or just adventure camping, and an absolute brilliant candidate for restoration. This truly is a Willys or Jeep lovers dream find. Parts alone are worth more than asking price.”

Day 2 -March 21st: From Salt Lake City To Vernal

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

<– Day 1 – March 20th: Dinner and Salt | OVERVIEW | Day 3 – Mar. 22nd: Old Bones and Old Jeeps –>

2014-03-21-vernal-dinosaur-easter

The Easter-o-saurus greeted us at Vernal, Utah.

After our long drive on Thursday, we intentionally had an easy day drive of a few hours, a quick trip from Salt Lake City to Vernal, Utah.

2014-03-21-vernal

Day 2 of our trip.

We started off the day with some bagels at the Einsteins on 13th East with Karson. After we were done eating, we posed for a photo together, which further demonstrates that either he is growing or I am shrinking. Must be the water in Salt Lake or something . . .

2014-03-21-slc-karson-dad

It kind of looks like the guy on the horse in the photo is measure just how tall Karson is!

We were just about to leave Salt Lake when Ann and I spotted Caputos, a well known deli that now has a small store next to Einsteins. They know their stuff at Caputos and know a couple suckers when they see them. We walked out a little poorer, but with some really good goat cheese and some locally made chocolate.

On this day in March 1948

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

On March 22, 1948, The Federal Trade Commission ordered Willys-Overland Motors, Inc. to stop advertising that it had created or designed the “jeep.” Said FTC: although Willys-Overland “made an outstanding contribution in its powerful engine as well as in other features of the vehicle,” the credit belonged jointly to four companies—Willys-Overland, American Bantam Car Co., Ford Motor Co., Spicer Manufacturing Co. (now Dana Corp.)—and the Army.

Photo of Wagon Raising Money for Polish Relief

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old Images, Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was on eBay.

“This is an old black & white photograph of a Jeep station wagon advertising American Relief for Poland. The car has a message board on the roof which reads: “Poland Needs Your Help Help the Children of Poland Tag Day Sept. 13th and 14th”. The car also says: “6000 Dubois MAdison 1644”. The latter is an old-style telephone number (this style was phased out in the 1950’s), and the former is likely an address. American Relief for Poland was formed in 1929 and was active at least through the 1950’s. The Jeep station wagon was introduced in 1946. I can’t see much of the clothing of the people in the background, but what I can see seems to look more like 1940’s or 1950’s clothes than later. A “tag day” is a day on which contributions for a charitable cause are solicited; the donors are given a tag in return. The photo is in good condition apart from some curl to it. It measures almost 7 inches long by 5 inches tall. I got this near Cleveland, Ohio, and I don’t have any other information about it; there is no identification on the back.”
