Transporting Jeeps via Plane

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

The August 03, 1942, issue of Life Magazine has an article about Transport Planes. The article includes photos of some GPWs. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t want to be wedged in there next to the jeep during a bumpy flight!

You can see the entire article at Google Books

There is a copy of this issue on eBay as well.

1964 Kristi Snow Cat Model KT-4G

• CATEGORIES: Features, Other 4x4s, Unusual • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Paul found this unique snow cat made from Kaiser parts. It appears to me to be a CJ-5 body with hardtop combined with a custom FC-looking cowl (with some buck teeth as a grille). There were only two KT-4G models made.

According to the Kristi Snowcat website, “This new vehicle, named the KT-4G, was designed with the aim to reduce costs by maximizing use of standard automotive parts. Kaiser Jeep supplied the CJ-series universal frame and body, while power was delivered by a Chevrolet 6-cylinder engine mated to a Clark four-speed transmission and steering differential. The new Chevrolet engine was water-cooled, allowing for a car-like heating system.”

Sausages and a Toy Jeep

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

Hugo in Uruguay spotted this video. Like peanut butter and jelly, ying and yang, Fred and Ginger, Sausages and toy jeeps are a natural fit, right? Well, if you didn’t believe it before, check out this ad that celebrates 100 years of Ottonello sausages. The toy jeep appears at the 15 second mark. After viewing the video, Hugo suddenly remembered that he’d owned a red toy jeep when he was a kid.

1949 CJ-3A Kellogg, ID $6200

• CATEGORIES: CJ-3A • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Still Available

“Frame off restoration on a 49 cj3a. less than 300 miles on this jeep since completion. New springs and shackles, professional bikini top and seats and more. If I couldn’t rebuild it I replaced it. L134 engine was professionally rebuilt. Every thing was sandblasted and coated with rust prevention before painting. Will also come with an extra running L134 engine and an other parts engine plus a plethora of extra body and drive train parts. This is a personal restoration so the body work and paint job are not professional an that’s why I am not asking 10 to 15 grand for it. Extra parts include a rebuilt dana 41 rear end, cj2a wind shield, hood, gas tank starter and generators, seat springs.
Will sell willys for $5500 alone.”
