Randy forwarded me this video about a recreation of a 1943 drive in a Willys Jeep around Killymoon Castle, Cookstown, Northern Ireland.  The folks at the Wartimeliving History Association helped make this video. The video is dedicated to the men of the 505th regimental combat team 82nd Airborne Division United States Army, Stationed in Cookstown Northern Ireland 9th December 1943 to 13th February.  I don’t have any history about the original drive.

Roadside Flattie in Boise

A new reader from Boise named Shane alerted me to this flattie that sits near Boise’s airport.  It sits as if it is for sale, but I could see no for sale sign.  The muffler and a few other misc parts are sitting in the back.  The front turn signal/parking lights appear to use the side running lights of a semi trailer.  The side steps are gone, replaced with custom bars that help hold the fenders in place.  The steering and seats appear updated.  Based on the rear pic, this appears to have been a late 1946 CJ-2A.

This includes a Saturn OD and other new parts.  However, I’d check out the body closely as the passenger side step appears to be partly pulled away from the body.

This looks well maintained.

“I purchased this beautiful 4×4 1947 Willys Jeep for $10,000 several years back and it has just sat in my garage. I took it in and redid the carburetor and it runs like a dream. It has a Chevy V8 engine with lots and lots of power. As you can see in the pictures, it has been specially restored. The customized stainless steel dash and beautiful interior with reinforced steel plating is a joy to ride in. Coupled with a dual exhaust, it’s one hot little ride (it also comes with a CB). Come check it out. Reasonable offers will be considered. Call Kaleb at 801-698-7468”
