• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500

(12/20/2012) Calling this refurbished, rather than restored, is more accurate. I’m not sure what is hanging so low below the jeep.

No Updates Sunday

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

Well, I’d planned to do updates for Sunday, but an unexpected dinner of Thai food with Ann’s grandfather put me into a food coma, which led to some sound sleeping.

Today I expect to complete the last full edit review of the new book. Forty pages have been slashed, some logic improved, a little back history added, errors corrected, and explanations clarified. I expect to order a proof version monday morning and, if all is correct, announce it is ready for sale by mid-next week.
