This seller has a wide range of jeeps. He hopes to sell them in various lots. The seller notes in the comments on this post that he won’t sell to folks in Nebraska.

The collection itself looks interesting. It is wide ranging with 2As, 3As, FCs, CJ-5s, and M-38s to name a few. I haven’t yet seen any pics of a 3B.

Qualls Road Trip IV: Team Qualls Makes it Home

See Part III | Start at Part I

This is the final summary from Randy and Carson’s coast-to-coast drive. Thanks to both of them for the inspirational journey and for sharing your photos along the way.

Here’s Randy’s summary of the trip:

“We made it😁 18 days and 7055 miles coast to coast and back in two 1951 open Willys jeeps. Average speed 48 mph Why? I don’t know, but it was fun! Sometime I’ll make a slideshow and post it. Thanks Melvin Petiet and Molly from Happy Trails 4×4 in Jacksonville for storing our tow rig while we were gone. They were also overlanding but we didn’t manage to cross paths. We did hook up with Cartotracks, warn, and Factor 55 for a run in Sand Hollow, and Boston Bob put us up for a night in Delta Colorado. Also thanks David Eilers for a great site ewillys.com.”

Jeep Plane Illustration

October 13, 2022 • CATEGORIES: Artists/Drawings, Features

Posted on Facebook by both Mario and Roberto, this WWII illustration pokes fun at the jeep for not making a good plane.

Somewhere on eWillys I had relayed the story I was told about an ex-WWII military mechanic who claimed that a few jeeps were tested as gliders in hopes they could be used to fly across the English Channel. While the experiment barely worked in the Southwest desert, it proved impractical over the channel due to the additional moisture in the air. I have so far been unable to verify these claims.
