This Issue has another foldout, awkward center-page full of congrats this time dedicated to dealers who enjoyed a Nassau vacation. There is also a page celebrating the 51 jeeps used in the 1961 Presidential Inauguration parade. Another page is dedicated to Surreys. Finally, on the last page you’ll find a warning about a scam involving $90 Army jeeps!

“WWII 1943 Willys Jeep, MB engine with Serial Number MB-250260 which matches the military depot data plate on the frame. It was rebuilt by the military on 10/14/1952 at Esslingen Ordinance Depot. The engine does turn over and is fairly original under the hood. The only thing not original for the era, is the voltage regulator for the generator. It has original gauges, but someone broke out the glass. Engine is mated to T84 transmission. It includes all seat frames front and rear, original fuel tank, 4 combat rims with used NDT and new tubes mounted. Also included is a set of top bows however they are for a M-38 and not an MB. They could be converted by welding. Original windshield frame is pretty rough but this jeep comes with another external windshield frame that could be used.

Sept. 1960 Jeep News – Hong Kong Special

This Hong Kong Extra Edition didn’t include a date, but the Volume and No suggests this is the September 1960 issue. Much of this issue covers the Hong Kong TV show, but there is some Surrey info on page six and seven. Also, the way the paper unfolds is kind of awkward, so I’ve added a few extra scans below.
