May 2012 Issue of Hot Rod Deluxe Magazine
Mark reports that the recent edition of Hot Rod Deluxe Magazine has a variety of jeep pictures in it. Here are a couple. I have yet to pick up my copy.
Mark writes, “Found this cool copy of Hot Rod Deluxe magazine – May 2012 edition while in Barnes and Noble the other day. This nice little gem features a ton of Willys cars, trucks and quite a few Willys Jeeps as well. See pics attached. Page 6 features the first Four Wheel Drive Grand Prix in 1965 with allot of Jeeps in the pic. Page 33 features Bob Panella’s huge collection of Willys cars and trucks. Scattered throughout the rest of the pages you will find race jeeps and tricked out jeeps from back in the day which are pretty cool.”
Nicely Shaped Aluminum Body for Willys Sedan
This has nothing to do with jeeps, but Steve forwarded it thinking I might like it. I did. I figured some of you would too.
According to the attached text of the email, “Check this out… a hand-formed all-aluminum Willys Coupe! It’s amazing what some people can do with an English rolling wheel, sheet metal brake and a lot of skill and knowledge. No, he is not going to paint it. I love the polished flames! It’s got the right stuff under the hood, too! The hood scoop has yet to be installed in the photo below (Look closely). This is Walt Austin’s aluminum Willys coupe at Jim Hume’s shop, south of Bellingham , Washington.”
1947 CJ-2A Salem, Or **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
Nice.
“400 Small Block Chevy, 400 transmission, New Tires, New Wheels, New Winch, New Brakes,New Top
Runs and drives great.”
1945 GPW East Jordan, Mi **SOLD**
UPDATE: SOLD*** Was listed at $3500.
This might be a very good price. It looks quite solid, despite needing brakes.
“1945 jeep gpw new engine needs brakes”
1948 CJ-2A Spokane, Wa **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800. Relisted 6 months later.
This looks pretty good for the price. The body looks fiberglass to me.
“1948 Jeep runs and drives good power steering and brakes, hard top and bikini, six foot snowplow, chains and towbar.”
1953 CJ-3A? Napa County, CA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3800
This has a M-38 windshield and I think it has a glove box on the dash, too, so I think it is a M-38 rather than the CJ-3A indicated by the seller. Or, it is a mix of parts.
“66K Miles. Decent condition. Comes with Tow Bar & Soft Top. Less than 500 miles traveled in last 10 years. Runs great; but, needs brake work.”
1959 Wagon Banquete, Tx No Price
Looks solid.
“Customized 2 door panel with a 6 1/2 inch chopped top. Has a stock 350 Chevy engine, with an Edelbrock intake and a 750 Edelbrock carbuerator and Edelbrock valve covers. S-10 headers with a 400 transmission and a 2600 stall. 2002 S-10 chasis with a camaro rearend. Posi track 308 gears. For more information, call Juanito at 361-774-4838”
1951 CJ-3A Muscatine, IA **SOLD**
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900.
This runs and drives, but has some dings, dents and surface rust.
“Original jeep willys updated to 12v. New radiator, new plugs. Kept in heated garage. Removable doors and windshield. Runs great. Solid. Hi/low. Some rust on body on passenger side. Rollbar is removable”
1955 CJ-3B Carson City, NV **SOLD**

Looks like a nice jeep.
“This vechile is rust free. When refurbished all electrical componets were rebuilt, brakes, shocks, muffler cooling system and mechanical items were gone thru and refurbished / replaced. Tires, top and interior seats are new.
The mileage is unknown.
Everything works.
Engine is a 4 cylinder flat head (original). 3 speed transmission and 4 wheel drive.
This vehicle is not perfect but it is very close.”
