Shed of Dreams

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

A shed of dreams?  I came across the phrase while, as usual, searching for something else.

As best as I can put together, the shed was located in Greece and was full of old MBs, GPWs, Parts, and more. The Jeep Draw website has a large number of images showing rows of old jeeps. One pic shows at least 20 jeeps sitting 3 rows high.

According to Thomas Jacobson’s jeep website (which has some good jeep info), the  shed of dreams existed as late as 2001, as that is when Thomas visited the shed and took a whole bunch of pictures.

According to a discussion thread on the Steel Soldier’s website, the shed no longer exists as the jeeps have been sold.

Here is an example of one of Thomas’s images:

5 10×15 5×5.5 Rims Longview, WA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Tires and Rims This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $100

Here’s a nice price on some rims.

“This is a full set of five, Chrome wheels with the 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern. That fits Willys, Jeep CJ5 CJ7, Ford Bronco, Ford F 150 and some Dodge trucks I believe as well. These are a 15 inch rim that is 10 inches wide with a 4 inch back space. The chrome is still good. I bought a set of BFG all terrain tires that where mounted on these wheels. I already had my own wheels, so I don’t need these. All five for 100 bucks. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.”

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

I called and spoke to Mark about this jeep.  He noted the driver’s side floorboards were especially bad.  He feels strongly that this CJ will start if it get’s some fresh gas and oil.  Apparently, this was used at the local airport for years.

“1955 Willys Jeep w/ tow bar and original motor. Serial #17544 This vehicle has not run in years, but should with some work. No battery. Lost title and keys. Call or e-mail for more info.”

Sunday Trip over Rocky Canyon Rd & Aldape Pass

• CATEGORIES: Biscuit This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Sunday was a perfect day temperature-wise to take Biscuit out for a long test run into the Boise Foothills.

Of course, It took all of about 5 minutes into the hills before the engine overheated.  For some reason the auto temp sensor wasn’t turning on the electric fans.  So, using some extra wire i had, I wired up the fan directly to the electrical system, which bypasses the temperature sensor.

After resolving that issue, it took all of another 5 minutes before we hit a gate that wouldn’t open until May 15 … sigh.

So, I drove back down the hill, through town, and tried a different access road that’s on the East Side of Downtown Boise. This time, we found some trails!!  We even found some difficult enough terrain to engage four wheel drive and low range.

After an hour of driving, we found ourselves at the top of a pass and made a left, tackling some more difficult terrain.  We eventually hit some snow and figured that without a winch, turning back was the smart option.  When we got to the pass, I made a left and headed down the other side of the mountain.

As I managed to leave the map at home, we were travelling slightly blind, so we depended heavily on serendipity.  Eventually, we found ourselves at one of two tributaries to Lucky Peak Reservoir.  Because the lake is low, we could actually drive along the reservoir, which is where these pics were taken.

Instead of heading back over the canyon road, I took the highway back to Boise, which meant Biscuit got to drive at 55 for an extended length of time.  All in all it was a successful trip!  Here are some pics from the day’s adventure.

The grille suggests this might be a ’46 or ’47.  Also, there’s something strange about the transmission area — I don’t see any gear shifts, though there is a pto looking shifter.

1968 Commando Spokane, Wa $11,999

• CATEGORIES: Jeepster This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Here’s a beautiful Commando!

“1968 Jeepster Commando.  I have owned this fantastic Jeep for several years. I personally (and the previous owner) have completely renovated and improved this classic from bumper to bumper. I have over $19,000 in receipts for just the improvements not including the $4,000 paint job.

Newer 4.3 liter GMC Vortec V-6 from a 1995 Jimmy. Installed when it had 24,000 miles. It now has less than 36,000 and runs as you would expect (like new!) It is the ideal size for a retro-fit and has more-than-plenty of power and torque. Good gas mileage too. I have been using synthetic blend oil. It does not use any oil nor leak a drop, and of course, does not ever smoke. Lots and lots of new stuff under the hood including new radiator and steel fan. Matching wiring harness and correct wiring through-out. Computerized fuel pump …”

1961 FJ3 Fleet Van Republic, Wa eBay

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

I haven’t seen one of these for sale in a few months.  There were several buyers looking for one.

“This is my 1961 or 62 not sure Jeep FleetVan.  It has the original F Head 134, but engine is stuck.  Van comes with a complete good running Fhead that was removed from a cj in favor of a v8 swap.  The van rolls and steers good, brakes kind of work.  The doors open great, and all interior covers are there.  So far the only missing Items I can find are the front bumper and orginal seat.  Two side windows are shot, but are flat glass and easy to replace.  This van would make a cool parade rig, or advertising for a business, maybe even a mini coffee/bagel delivery van.  Please feel free to ask any questions, I will try to answer them as soon as possible.  I can haul the van on my car trailer to spokane or moses lake if needed.  Sorry, no tittle.  Good luck.”
