1944 MB? Idaho Falls, ID $9000

UPDATE: Price is now $9000.

(10/16/2020) What a crazy contraption. “El Burrito”‘s got style. It even has a mural on the back. I’m not quite sure how the rear extends, but it looks like someone would be safe from bugs.

“A Prospector’s Dream or a mini RV!
A unique vehicle for the right individual. A fold out six foot bed behind the seats, and a “kitchen” underneath. Email me for videos showing the set ups. A 1944 WWII surplus jeep purchased in 1954. It is a Willy’s 4 cylinder. I think it might be a CJ 6.
Needs new gas tank (has 2 tanks, if you want to replace both) Seals and belts are dry, but should absorb fluids back when added. It was started, but turned off to avoid running bad gas through the carburetor. All the mini-van modifications can be removed to restore to original jeep without too much conversion.
If interested E-mail phone number to pungoriver@live.com and I will call you for further information. If you like make a bid.
It has been garaged.”

1948? Jeep Station Sedan Brochure

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

In 1950 the Jeep Station Sedan line was upgraded with the Lightening 6 engine. Apparently, that didn’t stimulate sales, as the Sedan model was canceled later in 1950. For some reason, there’s no form number attached to this brochure (I can’t figure out why some brochures have form numbers and some don’t). The four-page brochure opens horizontally. Since it didn’t fit on my scanner, I ‘scanned’ it with my phone, but it didn’t scan all that well. It doesn’t look as dirty in person as it does in the pics.

1942 Photo ‘Demonstrating’ the Walkie Talkie

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

This April 03, 1942, photo shows Corporal Joseph Vober and Cecelia Marchio ‘demonstrating’ the new wacky-talkie that is installed in a jeep.

I didn’t learn much about either person pictured in the photo. Cecelia married, becoming Cecelia Maselic (Ceclia’s brother Daniel was a Marine in WWII and Korea). I believe Joseph Vober would go on to marry Evelyn Lau.

“1947 Willy’s CJ-2A Rebuilt in 2018 Rebuilt Motor in 2020 All new… Suspension Cooling System Electrical Brake system (drum) NOS transmission (lucky ebay find) Exhaust Steering components minus tie rods (tie rod ends are new) and has orginial steering shaft New floor pans Converted to 12V with alternator Starter has been rebuilt Interco TSL Swampers The jeep is great little jeep for its age. Still needs a windshield inner frame and glass but those are available aftermarket. The jeep has not been abused since it was rebuilt, just used for dragging out deer, getting groceries, and running trail cameras. Great little jeep, message for questions.”
