Here is a funny story

This was supposed to be published last night (sat night) …. but somehow I never hit the “publish” button.  It just goes to show you that it REALLY WAS one of those kind of nights ….

It just seems like one of those type of nights, so I’m going to save updates for the morning.

See, not only did I manage to lose my 3 month old phone tonight (by placing it on my car and driving off), but then I wrote an amusing story about it, only to have the post disappear when I published it.  I think it is time for a beer …  Night all!

Anyone Recognize this 1962 6×6?

December 17, 2010 • CATEGORIES: Features, Unusual • TAGS: . This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Rudolf emailed me from Bali yesterday. He’d spotted this Jeep advertised for sale as a 1962 6×6 Willys Jeep.  He wondered if this was a custom project or the real deal.  My guess was that this is a one-off custom project, especially since it has a number of civilian elements. Apparently, the seller swears this was in the war (which war?).  Unfortunately, the seller has yet to respond to additional questions.  Also, below is the only pic provided.

Note the unusual front hubs.  I’ve never seen a 6×6 quite like this.  Is this possibly some oddball created by a Willys licensed manufacturer?

This needs work and is priced a bit high for a project; however, I’m betting this has a variety of drive train updates.

A Silent Night

Given it’s the holidays, calling tonight a Silent Night seems appropriate as I found very few jeeps for sale of interest.  So, the few I found I’ll save for tomorrow.

Besides, I’ve been checking out the new Google Books search query and have found some additional family history to add to my geneology research.

Right now I’m doing a search on “Willys Jeep” using Google Books and hope to find something interesting.  If I do, I’ll report it tomorrow.  Enjoy your night!
