1959 Truck JeepRod Tender-build Phoenix, AZ $2500

• CATEGORIES: Jeep Rods, Willys Trucks • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This could make a neat looking build. It has a “Tender” look about it. But, rather than cutting down just a wagon, this one combines a truck with a wagon rear.

Jeep Collection For Sale Whitney, NE

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, CJ-3A, CJ5, FC150-FC170-M677 This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This seller has a wide range of jeeps. He hopes to sell them in various lots. The seller notes in the comments on this post that he won’t sell to folks in Nebraska.

The collection itself looks interesting. It is wide ranging with 2As, 3As, FCs, CJ-5s, and M-38s to name a few. I haven’t yet seen any pics of a 3B.

You can see more pics and read the comments here. The seller has responded to some of the comments: https://www.facebook.com/groups/WillysSwapMeet/posts/3312265972379992

See Part III | Start at Part I

This is the final summary from Randy and Carson’s coast-to-coast drive. Thanks to both of them for the inspirational journey and for sharing your photos along the way.

Here’s Randy’s summary of the trip:

“We made it? 18 days and 7055 miles coast to coast and back in two 1951 open Willys jeeps. Average speed 48 mph Why? I don’t know, but it was fun! Sometime I’ll make a slideshow and post it. Thanks Melvin Petiet and Molly from Happy Trails 4×4 in Jacksonville for storing our tow rig while we were gone. They were also overlanding but we didn’t manage to cross paths. We did hook up with Cartotracks, warn, and Factor 55 for a run in Sand Hollow, and Boston Bob put us up for a night in Delta Colorado. Also thanks David Eilers for a great site ewillys.com.”

Jeep Plane Illustration

Posted on Facebook by both Mario and Roberto, this WWII illustration pokes fun at the jeep for not making a good plane.

jeep-plane-illustration

Somewhere on eWillys I had relayed the story I was told about an ex-WWII military mechanic who claimed that a few jeeps were tested as gliders in hopes they could be used to fly across the English Channel. While the experiment barely worked in the Southwest desert, it proved impractical over the channel due to the additional moisture in the air. I have so far been unable to verify these claims.

1947 CJ-2A Phoenicia, NY **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

Glenn shared Andy’s ad for a 2A with a Newgren 3-point hitch and a rear pto.

“Up for sale is a very rare 1947 CJ2a. Besides remnants of original paint on the body and on the wheels this jeep has a very rare Newgren three point hitch. The jeep also has a full power takeoff to the rear. original upholstery on the rear seat. The engine has a King Seely governor and dashboard control. Original bumper. Also hard to find is the original top bow hardware for the half cab. I have the rear bow for the full cab also. Jeep will need a full restoration but given the rarity of this example it would be well worth it. Clear title”
