https://denver.craigslist.org/pts/d/englewood-warn-belview-8000-lb-winch/6806160069.html

“Early 8000 lb winch. This is the model before the 8274 model Warn Winch. Works. Has the in cab cable controls, as well as a foot switch. This is perfect for your classic 4×4. They look good polished up. Has good cable included. Stand up style winch, perfect for old Willys Jeeps, Broncos, or FJ40 Landcruiser. Looks better on a classic rig then a cheap Harbor Freight winch, will keep working years after the Chinese winch is dead. I had it on an old Dodge Military, only took off because I moved up to a 12000 lb Warn winch. Can text pics, or add later.”

2019 Jeep Outing in Costa Rica

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

Roger shared this story. A group of Costa Rican Jeep friends took their vintage jeeps out for an 2019 adventure to the beach, where they camped at least one night. This is their second ‘Willys Adventure’ together. You can see more pics on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pg/Willys-Pasión-Costa-Rica-1726644670912768/photos/?tab=album&album_id=2254856788091551 .  Looks like fun!

1945 Article on How to Handle War Surplus

• CATEGORIES: Features, GPA (SEEP), Old Images, Old News Articles • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This July 15, 1945, article in the Evening Star featured a great shot of Ford GPAs. I thought the article was interesting, too. It highlights the challenges of managing war surplus (links to page 1 and page 2 of original article).

’57 Willys Or ’58 Chevy on This or That

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

TJ shared a link from Hemmings on a “This or That” article, meaning if you could only choose one, which one would you choose. Most folks on Hemmings leaned toward the Willys truck. I think I might be more partial to the Chevy (heresy, I know).
