1946 CJ-2A Florence, VT $1500

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

UPDATE: Now priced at $1500.

(03/14/2014) It does not run.

” have a 1946 jeep (first year of consumer jeeps) that needs a restoration. It does not run and was parked for years as the clutch was sticking. It does roll and steer to move. The frame looks good and the body has had new metal welded in. The jeep has the original motor (flathead 4) and drive train (3 speed). It shows 13,000 original miles.These are getting more difficult to find to restore. I would like to trade it for an enduro bike, 4 wheeler, jeep wrangler, or maybe something else motorized. You can always ask if I am interested. Thanks for looking.”

Day 27 – Apr. 15th: Strolling Monterey

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

<– Day 26 –Apr. 14th: Gorditas Make Me Sleepy  | OVERVIEW | Day 28 – Apr. 16th: Artichokes and Sushi Boats –>

2014-04-15-wharf3Today we didn’t do much but relax and wander around Monterey on a mostly cloudy day. Monterey has two wharfs, one more tourist-oriented and one more local-oriented. We started at the latter by grabbing some clam chowder at the Sandbar & Grille Restaurant. The chowder tasted good, but had a too many potato chunks and too few clams.

After lunch we got on our tourist vibe with a walk to the other more notable wharf.

2014-04-15-wharf-signThe ‘tourist’ wharf even had an unofficial greeter:

It doesn’t look like his fishing is faring to well.

At the end of wharf Ann got busy with her camera, so I got busy photographing her.

As we left the wharf I decided to see if YELP could find an interesting ice cream place. Sure enough, YELP found Kai Lee Creamery in Pacific Grove. So, we headed west until reaching the cannery row area, with some recognizable places.

Kai Lee Creamery was started six months ago by Butch Adams who had no experience in the industry. His goal is to make ice cream that is organic, gluten-free, non-soy, all-natural, vegetarian, and handmade.

Oscar’s Visit to Colombia

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

Oscar Skold was in Colombia last month. He shot these photos for us (at least that’s the way I’d like to think of them).

He reports, “I know most of these are not actually Willys jeeps but nevertheless a very cool encounter while I was visiting Colombia a month ago. They use most of these old jeeps as taxis and you see them everywhere. Unfortunately I didn’t have a camera to shoot all that I saw but these pics gives you an idea what a great country this is to travel around in. We were mostly in the Medellin area and south, down to a town called Roldanillo.”
