Will, Sam, Gerald and I.

On Tuesday’s triple-digit afternoon, Gerald and his two kids dropped by for a short visit. Gerald and his son Will, from Pennsylvania, are visiting daughter Samantha, who now lives in Washington State, for the week.  They’ve been exploring some of the state and on Tuesday their travels brought them to our humble home (technically, we never really made it past the shop).

The last time I’d seen the kids was eleven years ago at the 2013 Bantam Festival, and they were pretty young, so I didn’t recognize them at all. But, Gerald still looked the same … I’m not sure he’s even aged!?! Anyway, in 2013, Gerald gave us the grand tour in his CJ-3B of the Cooper Lake campground, a place they had camped for years.

Gerald was an early reader of eWillys (circa 2009 maybe?). As he put it on Tuesday, his online world consisted of The CJ-3B page and eWillys. Outside, of that, he really didn’t want much to do with the internet. His parents were involved in a local jeep club and also raced, so Gerald and I had shared, via email, many stories of growing up in the old jeep world, desert dogs, camping, etc.

While we talked on Tuesday, Will was checking out the racer, so it wasn’t long before I was running him around the property in it. Here’s a quick clip.

Then he climbed in, all smiles, for a chance to drive it. He didn’t go all that fast, but seemed to be enjoying himself.

2024-07-16-oswald-visit3
The visit was all too short as they needed to make their way back to the Kelso area by nightfall, so we said our goodbyes. Perhaps we’ll see them if we make our way to the Willys Reunion next year.

“For sale…1964 Jeep FC-150 all original, complete and with a clear NC title. It even has the extra weights in rear. I have owned it for over 20 years and has been garage kept. Was last registered in 1984. This was bought new and used by a firehouse in upstate NY for their plowing. It was then bought by a farmer upstate NY and used as his farm vehicle. Then was bought by Manny who had a shop in Queens NY, the name still on DS door and used it to plow his shop that had a small parking lot. He wanted to restore it but never got to it. He switched it from a Generator to an Alternator.

I bought it from Manny when he retired. Its been garage kept ever since. My goal was to restore it but there was others inline ahead. I just sold my Super bee to the TV show Graveyard Cars and it was shown this last episode to lighten my projects. it runs great, it is low mileage. The Doors are rust free, PS window is cracked as in picture. The windshield is in great shape, seats were recovered and comfortable, shifts fine, no smoke, lights work. It does have the common cab rot in the corners as in the pictures, it is 60 years old. It drives but has no brakes, the LF wheel cylinder blew when I drove it outside. I’m not going to fix it but it can be driven onto a trailer. Please only Serious buyers who would appreciate a survivor.”

“The Jeep CJ models are a series of open bodied off-road vehicles built and sold by several successive incarnations from 1945 to 1986. In fact, the 1945 model was the world’s first mass produced 4 wheel drive vehicle for civilian use. As a result the CJ stands for Civilian Jeep.

In 1946 it was equipped with the L34 134ci Flathead 4 cylinder which was nicknamed the “Go Devil” that is mated to a column shifted Borg Warner T90 3 speed manual transmission. This sweet Jeep is also equipped with 3 very rare options making it extremely desirable which are the front tow bar, the rear draw bar (hitch) and the rear bumper mounted Power Take-Off (PTO) which was designed to drive equipment mounted at the rear of the vehicle through a shaft drive assembly. It is also used to drive trailered equipment, operate belt driven machines and shaft driven winches.
