1942 MB Slat Grille w/ No Glove Box De Pere, Wi **SOLD**

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

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on ebay.

This has a variety of patches.

“Vintage Willys MB slat grill. Clear 1942 WI Title although can’t verify Vin# because data plates are missing. No glove box, early hubs indicate an early jeep. condition – needs almost everything. I put in new brakes and master cyl some years ago. Still good. Have not fired it up in several years, but it was a smoker. Trans and transfer case worked. Actual milage unknown. the body is poor – many, many patches. Jerry can rigged as gas tank. Includes one combat rim but not correct for a slat grill. Needs complete restoration. Must have had several plow arrangements over the years judging by the front frame horns. I would have parted it out years ago but it is a unique piece of American history and should be preserved as such. It can be resurrected, but not for the faint of heart.”

Mark Smith’s Jeep Museum in Georgetown, Ca

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

I learned today that Mark Smith opened a museum a couple months back in Georgetown, Ca, at what I believe is the Jeep Jamboree Headquarters.  At this point, it isn’t so much a museum as a collection of some rare jeeps, but they are nice looking jeeps.  According to the Jamboree website, Mark organized the first Jeep Jamporee in 1954, traveling across the Sierra Nevada Mountains by way of the Rubicon Trail.  It sounds like he is still going strong!

You can view all of them here:

Hesse Hornet Info Wanted

• CATEGORIES: Features, Industrial-Welder-Generator, wanted This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The Hesse Hornet was an air compressor manufactured by the Hess Manufacturing Company in the late 1940s(?).  The compressor used a CJ-2A engine to run, but only pistons 1 & 4.  The middle two pistons were used to compress air.  Keith recently bought one of these and was going to part it out, but changed his mind and now wants to restore it.  However, there isn’t much online about it.  Below are the links we know about it so far.  If you know of any additional info, please add it to the comments.
