UPDATE:  After some relatively quick searching, I discovered this image is available via National Geographic’s Stock Imagery. Below is an example of the original image.

The photograph was taken in Horse Canyon in Utah.  The photographer was W. Robert Moore.  The picture ID is #614798.

To find the photo, go to the NationalGeographicStock.com website and then enter the id of  614798 in the “quick explore” box.

(10/10/2012)

I bought a book from the 1960s full of photographs from America’s National Parks, called “America’s Wonderlands The National Parks National Geographic“.  As you can see in the link, I paid a whole $1.60 for it.  On Page 222-223 I found this photograph of two jeeps wandering through Canyonlands National Park.  It’s too bad the photograph is slightly split by the binding.

This features two rocket launching jeeps, though they only somewhat jeep like. Maybe there are more jeeps within the comic.

I thought the hoses on this fire jeep were unusual.  I would think they would flap around in the wind when driving?

1951 M-38 Iowa eBay

This looks like a good restoration candidate to me.

“I am listing this 1951 Willys M38 Jeep for my uncle. He has owned it over 25 years. It is in running condition as he drives it during fair weather.

It has a solid frame and body. It has not been significantly modified and still has its original character. It has been converted to a 12 volt electrical system. A recent restoration of the gas tank was completed to fix leaks and corrosion. The actual mileage is unknown. Included with the jeep is an operation/maintenance manual and a variety of extra parts including a rear seat frame.

Please view all the pictures as they show far more than I can describe.

Click here to go to the web album with the 40 pictures being shown below. In the web album there is an option to magnify any of the pictures to see more detail.You can also click any picture below or on the slide show to get to the web album”
