1948 CJ-2A Kansas City, Mo eBay
UPDATE: This is back on eBay. It was auctioned late last year.
This is a nice looking CJ-2A.
“1947 Willys Civilian CJ-2A. Please bid and have the money to complete this transaction. I bought the Willys just a few months ago to sit in the showroom. I have few other cars I have purchased that I need room in the showroom, so here is your chance! Frame off restoration a few years ago. Over $18,400 invested over the initial price of vehicle. This Jeep is about as nice as you will find, in, off, or on Ebay, or anyplace else. 274 miles since restored. No rust body, no filler, no bondo. Every known component rebuilt or refurbished. Starts immediately, idles well. Drives excellent. Correct Picket Gray paint, correct red wheels …”

No need to login to view the submenus .. but I guess that temporary plan didn’t work anyway … fortunately I have no ego wrapped in my coding abilities!
Actually, I thought my logging in idea had worked for users, until a reader pointed out that he still couldn’t see the sub menus even after logging in (thanks Robert!). It was then I discovered that I was the only person that could see the submenus …. cool for me but sucks for everyone else 🙁
So, after spending the day beating my head against my desk for several hours, injecting caffeine, and playing basketball … and it was a good day for bball … I finally found the culprit (some javascript related to the slideshow in the sidebar). So, for the time being there won’t be a slideshow of past posts, but there will be submenus.
Updates later (and I’ll answer some emails which i have ignored all day to track down this problem).

UPDATE: Here is an updated link to Denver’s collection of Bingham’s pics.
Photographer Roy O. Bingham followed the 10th Mountain Division through at least part of Italy during World War II. I searched for some information on Bingham and though I found photos, I haven’t found any biography information yet.
During World War II, the 10th Mountain Division trained in Colorado in anticipation of fighting in the Italian Alps.
The following photo was snapped by Bingham and the 2nd is of Bingham himself.

This photo was taken by Richard A. Rocker, who was also a photographer with the 10th Mountain Division. You can see a variety of his pics at the Denver Library’s online collection of Western History and Genealogy,
The soldiers in this photo were likely parked amongst the rubble of a shelled town called Pietra Colora. According to the photographer, they are listening to the sound of German artillery falling nearby and preparing to take cover if the rounds start falling closer.

1945 MB Southwest Colorado $2500
I’m not sure if this has been available for sale previously or not.
“I am selling one of my projects. Very restorable WW2 jeep. The body is straight with the usual rust through in the hat channels and the fuel tank sump. The drive train is all original and complete. The frame is straight and solid, no rust throughs or breaks. The engine is a ’45 not sure if it’s the original. Email me for serial numbers. Now for the negatives. There is no title. I will provide a bill of sale. There are no seats. The one in the pictures goes to a GPW and is not included in the sale. Someone has cut the fire wall probably for a bigger engine. The jeep is not running but the engine does turn over. I can deliver to Phoenix at the Papago show on January 30th. Email me for more info and pictures. Asking $2500.”
