Working Away

With the rain staying away for a few days, I booked it over to Renton for a few days to work on Rusty. Here are a few of the things I did today.

I did a little more straightening to the body. This time I wanted to remove a bow along the top back. I’ve mounted a board as a straight edge. You can see the cancer in the rear.

2017-04-09-rusty-body-work2You can see there’s a gap between the board and the back.

2017-04-09-rusty-body-work1After some clamps and some sweet talking with a 5lb sledge, I coaxed the back into line.

Year? Photo of Jeep Driving onto a Float on eBay

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

It’s dated Nov 29, 1940, which is highly unlikely given this version of the jeep hadn’t been built yet. I’d guess more like late Nov 29, 1942 is more likely.

“1940 Press Photo US Military Men Directing Jeep on a Float. This is an original press photo. US Military men directing jeep on a float.Photo measures 10 x 8.25inches. Photo is dated 11-29-1940.”

1946 CJ-2A Houston, TX $8000

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

It’s a 2A body that the seller has modified to look more MB/GPWish.

“I have a 1946 willys cj2a. It is a very good jeep, in good shape, and runs good. It was rusted and full of big holes when I got it. I spent a lot of time repairing, I cut out the holes, and welded in new steel. This jeep didn’t come with a glove box, I built one for it. It has the four cylinder hericaine engine that is real strong. And Dana 18. This is a civilian jeep, so it had a taile gate, but I was converting it to a 45 military, so I put in the solid rear panel. I only put it in one car show, and won 2nd place. That might have just been because of the gun. I don’t need to sale the jeep, I just don’t do anything with it anymore. I hate to see it not being used. I want someone new to enjoy it like I have. The browning 1919a4 that mounts to it, I have it in semiauto belt fed. I don’t want to sale it, but if the offer is good I will let it go with the jeep. I might be willing to trade for guns, or a jeep wrangler. $8,000 is just an opener, call me, let’s deal.”
