Auto Show in Costa Rica

This past weekend Gustavo and his CJ-3A participated in a vintage car show in Costa Rica.  He took some pics for us.

He writes, “Last weekend I was invited by the Costa Rican Antique Car Club to an Expo they organized and I wanted to share some pictures with you guys.  There were around a hundred different cars, from Fords Model T up to a DeLorean, and obviously Jeeps where there, including my 1949 CJ-3A.  It was a great Jeep weekend.  The 1932 Hot Rod was Meguiars Car of the Year (at Costa Rica) and they are taking it to SEMA.”

These first pics are of the jeeps.  More pics of the car show are on the next page.  Gustavo’s is the blue CJ-3A.

1948 Truck Portage, Mi **SOLD**

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

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was listed at $7500

Chris is selling his beautiful truck.  He has a complete history of ownership as well.  Looks like a good price to me.

“Here is a brief history of this truck.   The truck was originally owned by two brothers that used it in upper Michigan on their farm for light work duty.   They kept it in the original condition and when the second of the two brothers died, the truck went to their nephew.  The nephew is about my age and he didn’t know much about the truck accept that his instructions were not to sell it to anyone that wanted to modify it, change it or not appreciate the nature of it.  Another younger guy looked at it before me but he wanted to turn it into a Mud jumper truck and the nephew couldn’t bear to see that happen.

I’ve loved Willys jeeps since a kid but my Dad could not afford one.  After my Dad died I found this truck.    I’ve owned this truck about 15 years.  Always garaged, never driven after November or before April due to salt and never abused.   I use it for work around the yard hauling stuff and going to the dump.

It has the original L-134 flathead 4 cylinder engine which makes about 60 horsepower.  Good compression in all the cylinders and I have not replaced the valves so I add the lead substitute to the fuel.  I had the generator replaced last fall since she wasn’t keeping a charge, and now she puts out about 150 amps with the original 6 volt system.   There are no accessories in this truck, no fan heater, no defroster, no radio, just like 1948.  The heat is knob down by the passenger floor.  The wipers are vacuum.   The speedometer is stuck at 20mph but she only goes about 40 mph tops anyway any faster and you have to really hang on!  The truck did come with an oil filter, which seems like it  was an option in 1948.

She runs great.  The interior and seats are all original as is the headliner.  The turn signals are an add on since they didn’t have them in 1948.  The shift linkage is a 3 on the tree with the transfer case and hi/lo range on the floor.”

The front looks a little funky, but otherwise appears to be solid.

“Time to part ways with my 1948 CJ2A. I bought this in 2009 from a guy up in Oklahoma. I’ve put in several thousand dollars just to get it usable for my deer lease. I have lots of extra parts and stuff to go with this. Its not perfect and it does need some more work to make it really sharp but it runs and drives and I used it to hunt out of last year.

1947 CJ-2A Duncan, BC, Canada $3750

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Needs work.

“My good time friend needs a new home. Sad to say good bye. This 1947 Willys deserves more attention than I can give. I started to clean her up after 30 years of loyal service, but find I don’t have what it takes to complete the restoration.
All of the bumps and bruises have been worked out and the jeep is primed and ready for the colour of your choice. The engine (ford 2300 cc) is good (the most reliable motor I have ever owned!) and except for the Warn Lock in Hubs and my extras, all the rest is original. Super comfy seats are from an RX7.
Her needs are minor – seals for the brake cylinders leak and the steering box is worn. It’s now easy and cheap to get parts (Willys Over-Land Motors: 1-888-265-5337 ) Rear lights need to be reinstalled. Needs a new muffler.
This little sweetie has been a lot of fun. She is an excellent climber and can go places others can not. With this classic comes an extra tranny and transfer case, front grill, axcels, brake parts, steering wheel and more. Also have a 2 piece fiber glass hard top and canvas doors.

Don Prine in the August 2012 issue of JP Magazine

Link to Part 2: http://www.fourwheeler.com/project-vehicles/154-1209-the-old-man-and-the-jeep-part-2/

You’ll definitely want to pick up the August 2012 issue of JP Magazine, along with the subsequent issue, if you like jeep history (I have yet to see the story online). It features 94 year old Don Prine, who has been driving jeeps since the very beginning of the jeep.  Don Prine was a test driver of the prototype Willys, Ford and Bantam jeeps. Seventy-Two years later he is still involved with jeeps and, at age 94, still goes into his shop daily in Lakewood, Wa.

According to the article, a recording of Don describing the day pictured in the photo below in early 1941 at the US Capital is supposed to be here:  http://www.jpmagazine.com/prine, but I couldn’t make the link work.  Also, according to the article in JP, he was driving up the steps in the below picture.  However, according to this link, it is Senator Meade of NY driving the jeep and Representative Thomas, of NJ, in the passenger seat at the time of this photo.  I can only guess that in the photo Don is seated in the rear?

Don has long been a fixture in jeeping and racing in the Northwest.   In 2008 I called Don and had a very nice conversation with him, which you can read about here, about Stainless Steel Parts.  For those that belong to the PNW4WDA, Marty has posted a few pics of the visit with Don, Herm Tilford, and Christian at their forum.
