January 1950 Pop Mechanics Sky-High Painter

• CATEGORIES: Features, Fire/Police/Industry Vehicles, Magazine, Old Images This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Gayland spotted this unusual setup for painting tall places from a jeep. This was published on page 114 of the January 1950 issue of Popular Mechanics. Just hope it isn’t a windy day!

1943 Photo of Sioux City’s North Junior’s Jeep Purchases

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

This April 02, 1943, photo highlighted Sioux City’s North Junior School’s purchase of not one, but two jeeps as part of the “buy a jeep” bond campaign. They were the first school to buy one (and the first to buy two) jeeps. The Secretary of the United States Treasury presented the school with an award for its efforts.

Photo of Soldiers and Landing Craft w/ Jeep on eBay

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

The photo is dated May 5, 1985, probably because it was placed into a newspaper on that day. In my opinion it looks like a staged photo, given all the decorations on the jeep and the way the soldiers exit the landing craft, yet still provide the photographer a great look at the jeep. No description provided.

Dodge Command Car Model Moultrie, FL $65

Looks like a good price of this Dodge Command Car Model (once known as a jeep). If I were close, I’d probably get it.
