Stolen Terra Tires From Snohomish, WA

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

Mitch’s cousin has these terra tires stolen out of their grandmother’s shop. Feel free to email me at d @ deilers.com (no spaces around the @) if you see or know anything.

“Typical 31×15.50-15 terras. Stolen from Snohomish County, WA sometime in the last 2 months. Wheels are unique- widened Kelsey Hayes wheels as pictured. 3 have the correct centers, one has had the center crudely replaced with a Ford style center. Torched the opening larger for jeep fitment, crude welds maring the center to the rim.

Stolen from my cousin out of my grandma’s shop. Shop doesn’t get checked very often so we don’t know exactly when they disappeared, but he bought them less than 2 months ago. Should be easy enough to ID.”

2 Circa 1970? Brochures From Switzerland

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

Titled Geschlossener Jeep fur Sommer und Winter, these two brochures came from Switzerland. The majority of the images show configurations for the CJ-6, but a CJ-3A looking jeep is shown as is a CJ-5. You can see one brochure has “72” written on it, which *might* be a reference to 1972? Those seem like some nice configurations of well-built tops.

Angles National Forest’s New Fire Jeeps

• CATEGORIES: Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Old Images, Old News Articles This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

A March 30, 1947, article in the Metropolitan Pasadena Star-News introduced the Forest Service’s ten new CJ-2As to California readers. These vehicles were equipped with two-way radios to aid fire control.

The article notes that a Weasel was being tested, along with the development of a four-wheel-drive vehicle that would be better for forest fire fighting, but I could find no references on the internet to an offload vehicle designed by Ira Funk.

I actually used it to plow snow a few times. It’s in rough shape, but wouldn’t take too much to make it nice. Even when not running for over a year, it fires up right away. The engine needs some tuning, but I think it’d run well with some TLC.”
