“1952 USMC version. Running condition and partial rebuilt. Own a piece of military history made in America. I personalized this to Olive Drab like the Army Jeeps, but the true USMC version is painted in Mountain Green, which is just a dark green color. With some minor work, you can have this ready for the July 4th parade or just a weekend vehicle to show off.

Free Jeep Parts Spanaway, WA

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

Seller was trying to sell these. Now he just wants to get rid of them.

“I have a bunch of random parts from rebuilding/working on my 1960 Willys wagon, I was trying to sell them, now I just want them gone.. It’s got a 1970 Ford 250 in it so there is stuff for both. There are a set of stock shocks, mismatched locking hubs, a generator, water pumps, some coils some distributer caps, some plug wires, miscellaneous hardware… All ranging from beat to hell to brand new. A great deal at 100 bucks but you have to take it all! I’m just tired of storing it all so come and get it!”

Woodstock Legion Speedway

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

Gary shared this interesting post about early car racing in Woodstock, New York. Some of these custom race cars were equipped with pre-war Willys engines. So, while not much of a “jeep” story, there is a tenuous link to this interesting bit of regional history.

2017 Events for Willys-Am-Tegernesee

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

Christian has finalized this year’s Willys-Am Tegernesee reunion. It will take place from July 7th till July 9th with the main event on Saturday, July 8th , including an extracool little concert of some oldtime blues. I can’t go this year, but maybe Ann and I can figure out how to get there in 2018. We have been wanting to tour Europe, meet readers, and chase some more family history, but have delayed that opportunity for several years.

In late April this year’s Colonna della Liberta / Column of Liberation in Italy will take place. Date to be finalized.

Some rust and poor patches, but pretty solid for the age.”
