Auburn Trencher Columbia, SC **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.

Mike spotted this trencher.

“1960s Auburn Trencher that will cut 12″ wide and up to 10′. Bracket on back will attach to Willys Jeep. This is not a show piece and will need some work to get it functional, but all the pieces are there. There is an awful lot of steel so it could be worth scrapping. We can work out delivery if needed.”

Day 29 – Sunday May 27th: The Exley House Curse

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

<– Day 27 & Day 28 – Fri/Sat May 25th/26th: What is Happening? | Day 30 – Monday May 28th: Grilling in the Rain –>

Repalring the hall light.

Day 29: We spent much of the Sunday working on my cousin’s house near Richmond, Virginia. She bought it a year ago and has discovered it is a little more of a fixer-upper than she’d planned. The more time she’s spent there, the more she’s found odd things. She blames it on the previous family, calling it the Exley house. Why doesn’t something work right? That’s because it’s the Exley house.

Me explaining that there are two kinds of shower heads, Speakman heads and all others. She had a Speakman and didn’t realize how good it was (IMHO). In fact, it’s the biggest one I’ve seen, having 8 water jets.

I felt like we ran into the Exley curse when repairing her downstairs toilet. The toilet had a flap that wouldn’t seal. What should have been a 30 minute job, something I’ve fixed in other places, took multiple attempts over two days. I don’t have time to write up all the sordid details, but after the fifth time of removing the tank, I took everything apart and rebuilt it one more time. That finally did the trick.

The list of to-dos … we won’t finish them all, but we made a good dent.

Needing a break from the craziness, we went for a short walk at Marymont Park, then drove to Petersburg to eat some lunch and then see the Trapezium house, which is odd. Learn more in the video below.

On Monday, We’ll be heading for Huntington, WV; Tuesday will take us to Paris, Illinois; and Wednesday will bring us to St. Louis.

1965 CJ-6 Denver, CO $8500

• CATEGORIES: CJ-6 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Still Available. https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/jeep-willys-cj6-tuxedo-park/6593729712.html

(04/15/2018) Jon’s selling his CJ-6. You can see more pics here on Photobucket  or on Craigslist. Video below taken during remaining body assembly and before valve adjustment. You can contact him at jonvo@paadgroupllc.net.

Have had this jeep for many years, just recently finished mechanical restoration. Need to sell as too many vehicles & projects. This is apparently a rare Jeep, was not aware until recently. Special Tux

Park parts are included except:
Missing chrome license light, special license mounting is included
Missing special hubcaps or wheel covers.
Missing rear bumper, front bumper included but bent. Front bumper currently is welded on, the Tux park bumper is separate. Could be front or rear I think.
Rear fender covers are in very bad shape, likewise original upholstery. This Jeep apparently had red upholstery which is included, but very poor. The black front seats & upholstery included is period correct however.
All the other Tux park stuff is there, some of the chrome is in poor shape. The hood emblems are included but not installed.
The factory column shifter was replaced by a floor shift.
I have the column shift and it has been rebuilt along with the matching steering box. I will include these at the asking price only.
