Hallmark’s Sesame Street FJ-3 Ornament $19.95 (and more)

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

Jesse shared this FJ-3 ornament information. Last year, I posted about Sesame Street’s use of an FJ-3 as Cookie Monster’s Foodie Truck. What I didn’t know was that Jesse sold an FJ-3 that was renovated into real Cookie Monster Foodie Truck that is now at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. But, it doesn’t serve food. Instead, it is a kids interactive challenge (there’s an online version at PBS):

Here’s another one:

When you momma and poppa frogs hop in line for food, let the tadpoles play at the nearby foodie truck challenge. Help Cookie Monster and Gonger prepare delicious meals by following along with the video instructions and pressing the correct buttons for the right ingredients! Photo Credit: Undercover Tourist.

1980s Jeep Parts Poster on eBay

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

This unusual poster shows a pretty complete list of production civilian jeeps (though no FC-150). It advertises Jeep Parts out of Portland, Oregon, and is priced at $99, but the seller is accepting offers. It was an Oregon company.

1946 CJ-2A East Fishkill, NY $3000

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

This appears to have a replacement body, not an M-38 body.

https://hudsonvalley.craigslist.org/cto/d/hopewell-junction-1946-willys-jeep/7244616770.html

“1946 Willys Jeep for restoration. Jeep needs to be gone through, motor needs rebuild. Jeep is a good and straight canidate for restoration, has rust in front floors and side cowl panels.

I believe this jeep is a combination of a civilian CJ2a and a military M38. It looks like someone put an m38 tub on a civilian Cj2a frame. The previous owner told me he ran the numbers on the motor and it came back as a C2a.

There is no title on this vehicle as it predates when titles were issued, and I do not have a registration for it. Bill of sale only”

Year? CJ-6 Harrisburg, PA **Status Unknown**

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

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $5200.

Listed as a 1974, this is a 1956-1963 CJ-6. I see no data plate that indicates this was ever in the military. Strangely, a dummy head appears in a few of the shots.

“I have 1974 JEEP Army Willy for sale. Manual trans. Got clean PA title. Need some repairs. It is Long Wheel Base rare to find 8 seater. Runs and drives. In decent condition. A lot of potential. First come first serve. As is”
