No Updates Tuesday

UPDATE: This should have posted this morning, but the newest version of WordPress has a glitch that causes posts to randomly miss their scheduled appearance. 

Despite Charter Communication’s claim of ‘Blazing Speeds’, last night it was more like tortoise speeds. It was so slow I couldn’t get their Internet Speed Test to work. So, I’d say that calls for the evening off. I’m sure everything will be working by tomorrow night.

These photos appeared in the February 1956 issue of Globe-trotter. I especially like the CJ-5 with the ice cream maker!

Korean War Era Photo on eBay

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

The seller lists this as being a Korean War era photo. Though the jeep appears to be an M-38, I doubt this is from the Korean War. The jeep shown has a license plate on the back.

“Nice old photo. Measures about 4 1/2″ by 3 1/4″. Good to very good condition with some wear – album paper/paste remnants on back.”

1942 GPW Santa Rosa, CA $17,500

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Looks solid.

“1942 Ford GPW. New tires, new canvas top and seats. Rebuilt carburetor. 5 combat rims. Original riveted brass data plates – numbers match the frame. This was a running jeep that was cleaned, repaired as necessary, painted, and returned to the original condition when obtained. It has been converted to 12 volts. with an alternator. It is believed that all the parts are original except for the front bumper and horn (try to find a Sparton horn at a decent price!) and of course, the alternator. There are a lot of Ford marked parts – it is assumed that those who did repairs and replacements did not worry about using Ford marked parts in the past.”
