1960s? Postcard Of Jeep Tram Fishing on eBay

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

This Oceanside, California, CJ-5 pulled a tram that transported fishing enthusiasts onto the wharf.  My guess would be that is was owned by San Diego County.

1945 Photo of Jeep w/ Custom Cargo Bed

This photo was posted back in 2011 by Bill Grist. I can’t tell if the rear portion is a connected via pivot point (aka trailer) or if it is one solid six-wheeler. It’s a unique setup for sure.

Misfits Club Jacket

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

This jacket was spotted in a Yakima (WA) store by a PNW4WDA member (I just missed out on purchasing it). The club was from my home town of Renton.

There was a family a couple blocks from us that belonged to this club (something I remember as they had a cute girl my age … we both went to the same elementary school). I don’t recall this ever being a very big club, so this is a pretty rare find.

Firewall Progress

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

The warming weather has got me busy, but I was still able to get some progress on the firewall covers. Between a small sledge hammer and my big vice, I was able to bend the steel into shape.

Here are my templates.

2023-03-26-firewall-1

Here’s an example of the steel. I was able to cut this out using my plasma cutter (Yeswelder 55DS). It was my first attempt at using it, but it worked pretty well.

2023-03-26-firewall-2

Here’s it after bending.

2023-03-26-firewall-3

The tabs need some adjusting.  Otherwise ,these two covers should work fine.
