Red River Offroad Tour’s Newest CJ-6

• CATEGORIES: Builds, CJ-6, Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

James and Tish run Red River Offroad Tours in New Mexico.  You might remember the post I did about their CJ-6s here.   They are now on Facebook, too.

James emailed me recently about his recently completed Recovery CJ-6.  The CJ6 is set up to be used as a ATV/UTV/Jeep Recovery vehicle in the mountains of Red River and Taos, New Mexico.

It’s a 1973 CJ-6 with a stock 304 3-speed and a D20 with Terra Low.  It has a 4’lift 35’s.  The bed winch is a Ramsey 10,000 pounder.  On the bumper is a Smitty Built 10,000# winch mounted on the ARB bumper.

I found this on the Genealogy Guys Podcast site.  I can almost, but not quite, make out the serial number on the hood.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900

This has a rear PTO.  This does not have a clear title.

“1946 cj2a agri jeep. This jeep is one of the earlier 1946 models made for the farmer after ww2. This jeep does run and drive. It does smoke a little. And does need work! Only the front parking lights work, no other lights. It does need some steering work There is a lot of rust in the body. But the frame appears to be solid! I believe this jeep has the original 4 cylinder engine. It also has the optional PTO on the back. I do have an extra set of fenders that need work , but might be better than the ones that are on it that will go with the jeep. Feel free to call me to ask any questions !”

Moonshiner’s Swapmeet Pics

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

I was a little delayed in posting these pics from the swapmeet a week and a half ago, so I will push the pics of the WAAAM visit off until tomorrow.  At the swapmeet there were a few pics of jeeps and racers I wanted to include in this post.  But, I couldn’t leave the booth because the two times I did leave readers dropped by to say “hi”.  My faithful photographer did make it out to snap some pictures, getting wet in the process, but couldn’t quite read my mind as to which pictures I wanted;  Of course, my mind, like the rest of me, was cold that day, so I doubt there was much going on inside my mind for Ann to read.

As you can see, the booth design was compact, but efficient.  Herm was nice enough to give me some front space.  In exchange I even managed to sell something for him while he and his kids were off purchasing all kinds of deals (and he found a couple of astonishing deals on parts).  I have books, tshirts, signage and, most importantly, warm liquids.

In this picture you can see Herm wheeling and dealing on the phone, with his son Richard to his right, and their friend Dan to Richard’s right.

Here is a good example of the type of trailers that are brought in by sellers.  Trailers are piled with as many parts and pieces as they can put on them.  The building in the background is full of sellers and is only one of several buildings.  Many more sellers were outside.
